Inspiration Shoots
Glamorous Wedding Inspiration with Opulent Fall Florals from Flora Fetish
Ooh do I have something special for you today! You may remember, if you saw it, the boho-vintage wedding inspiration shoot I shared a couple of weeks ago in that lovely palette of lavender? (If you missed it, do take a peek, because it was a beauty!) Well today, the same creative team are back with something a little different! Dark yet romantic and with a hint of Renaissance opulence; ladies this gorgeous Marsala infused fall wedding inspiration, and its incredible floral creations from Flora Fetish, is if at all possible, even more stunning…..
Beautifully co-ordinated in the most perfect autumnal shades of plum, marsala and deep red the floral designs and lavish tablescape is simply breathtaking. With vintage rentals from Bee Lavish Vintage Rentals and a gorgeous mini wedding cake by Simon Lee Bakery that features a tree bark finish (I have no idea how that’s done but it looks amazing!) and glamorous makeup by Laura Heyns with Urban Betty; all photographed flawlessly by the fabulous Sophie Epton. It is perfect for the first week of Autumn and had my heart racing from the very first image!
Before you go and feast your eyes on all the gorgeous details, a few words from Ashley & Carrie from Flora Fetish about the inspiration behind their beautiful shoot.…. “We saw bold, dark, fall inspired designs with a romantic Renaissance twist for our chosen space. Perfect for a small gathering, perhaps an intimate elopement or engagement dinner, we wanted to create something warm and inviting, but without losing any of the grandeur such an occasion demands. We chose deep fall shades of Marsala, rich red and plum, for the floral designs – Kris created a beautiful flower purse and Carrie a necklace – and we used gold to brighten, lift and add a touch of luxury to the tablescape. The grapewood and rich blooms in the centrepieces contrasted with each other beautifully, really catching the eye. We chose unconventional attire for the bride and a bold statement colour for the groom – I love seeing couples choose the unexpected for their attire. We thought this wonderful outdoor space, surrounded by nature, would be a perfect setting for vows to be spoken, with just a few of your nearest and dearest standing around you.” I couldn’t agree more!
Isn’t it fabulous?? And so absolutely perfect for a Halloween celebration? I just love all of the floral creations, they would make such beautiful alternatives to a bouquet! Thank-you so much to Flora Fetish and the whole creative team (who you will find links to listed below) for creating such a vision of glamour and gorgeousness! And a special thanks to Sophie at Sophie Epton Fine Art Photography for capturing every stunning detail so perfectly, and for allowing me to share it with you here on Chic Vintage Brides.
