Toni & Carter’s Chic Boho Wedding at The Barn at The Edison

Toni and Carter had their wedding at The Barn at The Edison in Dade City Florida, an eclectic venue that offers charming elegance and a great backdrop for fun and personal details! The puffy clouds added to the whimsical atmosphere of the day, and the blank slate of the location enhanced the moody yet edgy vibes our couple was going for! Not only did our couple have a unique and fun wedding day, but it was also a day filled with lots and lots of details that were personal to them! Our favorite!

They thought of EVERY single detail and how it would photograph as well as affect those around them. Their welcome hand out described what the whole day would look like as well as directions on how to sign the guestbook, participate in the groom's toss, and enjoy themselves throughout their celebration. The two lovebirds shared private vows and an intimate first look in the forest in front of a triangle arch, to be able to enjoy this personal moment for just the two of them in their own exclusive setting.

Their wedding ceremony was extra special as they took part in blanket and crowning ceremonies. The Native American tradition of a blanket ceremony brings the two individuals together to become one under one shared blanket to showcase their forever bond and partnership. The crowning ceremony is when the officiant places a crown on the bride and groom's heads to announce them as “crowned king and queen” of their new home which they will run together with love and faith.

Having modeled together many times for wedding styled shoots and portfolio projects for various photographers, our couple knew exactly what they wanted for their wedding. Every single detail was personalized - from the dinosaur accents, to the stationary, to the florals and more - each detail was intentional. The color scheme and overall feel was so perfectly executed through the rust and bohemian lounge vignette, the peacock sweetheart table chairs, the whimsical boho teepee, and ALL of that gorgeous tabletop decor. Gather and Grace Designs nailed the chic boho vibe that Toni and Carter were going for! The dreamy aesthetic flowed from the aisle decor and ceremony backdrop florals, into the centerpiece florals, and hanging installations. “Neutrals only” was the attire request put forth by the bride and groom, and their 35 attendees happily complied, further emphasizing the neutral wedding day decor, and providing the perfect backdrop for the pops of pink, rust and gorgeous teal that were carefully woven throughout the wedding day aesthetic. The small guest count also allowed for such a charming and intimate celebration filled with special moments and also family style cuisine. The love that Toni and Carter shared for their guests and each other was reflected back, and all in attendance could literally feel the love in the air.

We were nothing short of obsessed with the dessert display. Every single dessert fit the theme, and the table decor was absolute perfection! The desserts consisted of specialty items made to look like geodes and crystals, and they were exquisite! The elaborate desserts contrasted beautifully with the simple white cakes (which were vegan!), topped with pretty florals that matched the ceremony florals. Once again, it was all about the details, and Toni and Carter made sure that every single element was just the way that they wanted it!

The entire day was filled with personal elements and stunning details, but the post Ceremony send off was truly nothing less than perfection. No surprise that a unique and memorable send off was a must-have for Toni and Cater, and their walk through the colored smoke bombs did not disappoint. Their intimate guest count really helped make the moment possible from a logistics perspective, and the photos are truly exquisite.

Toni and Carter are the cutest and sweetest couple who were very selfless, creative, and adventurous! The love shared between them is electric and was sung about during their special day, as Børns is one of their favorite artists and was a big piece of the day. It was an absolute pleasure and so much fun to get to work with them and be a part of their day. We wish the newlyweds all the best in their bright future together and love seeing them travel the world as husband and wife!
