Romantic Vintage Elegance + Wedding Chicks

When Diana Elizabeth Steffen contacted me about this styled shoot, I was so excited to be working with her again.  It had been over a year since she shot our Organic Bridal Shower and it was so much fun to see the photos published on Wedding Wire ; Style Unveiled. This time we were featured on Wedding Chicks!

 When I first met Julie Read of Juju's Tutu's, I immediately felt a connection.  She is beautiful and sweet, just like her adorable dress designs.  A busy Mom, a savy business woman, and a very talented designer, I can't wait to see where she takes her business next.

The venue search for this shoot was "guided", and by that I mean, we didn't know where we were shooting until 2 weeks before the shoot.  I'm not sure how Julie found The Felch House Inn, but this was definitely where we were supposed to be shooting.  With an elegant, vintage, romantic theme, there was no better place to shoot!  This venue has been recently listed and was renovated over the last few years into a gorgeous garden setting.  Located in the Historic Roosevelt district, this beautiful 1920's home was a mansion in it's day.  Becky and her husband have kept it's charming history in tact and added a lush, romantic garden setting for weddings, luncheons, and cocktail parties.

  All of the vendors involved were so wonderful to work with.  I've listed them all below this post and hope to work with them again very soon.  I will be recommending them all to my brides, as there couldn't be a better group to work with. Below are  just a few of the beautiful vintage jewelry and custom hairpieces featured.

I featured a Peach Bellini Bar complete with cake pops and canned peach favors.  My favorite detail of this little signature drink bar was the vintage button threaded onto each little mason jar with plain twine.

The Sweetheart Table was positioned under the most lovely orchid tree.  I chose gold details and lined the chairs with gold lace.  A heavily embroidered gold lace overlay echos a vintage, elegant moment in history.
