As wedding season was quickly approaching I knew creating a beautiful shoot just had to be done. My thought was to focus on the 2016 wedding trends and so I teamed up with Heather Puhek, owner of Petals & Stones and hair and makeup stylist for Beauty and the Beach, to start the planning process. We were inspired to highlight bridal fashion and trending aesthetic inspiration. We of course had to include the Pantone colors of the year, Rose Quartz and Serenity, but chose to loosely use them throughout to add a different design spin. The other top wedding trends we highlighted are… Lose, organic floral arrangements and bouquets. Seasonal flowers with a variety of textured foliage is still on trend, as well as foraging. We loved using giant artichoke leaves as well as fragrant jasmine and the popular protea and air plants. There is also emphasis on pushing creativity with displays. Paige Schmitt, The Mad Florist, helped achieve this look with her amazing talent and style! For our shoot, we chose stylish gowns from top designers Jim Hjelm by Hayley Paige, Eve of Milady, and Badgley Mischka. Think lots of lace and floral applique this year! With Mary Me Bridal’s stylist, Hope Stanley’s expertise the choices are flawless! We always love styling with Sundrop Vintage pieces. For this shoot we chose their furniture pieces that would best compliment the Pantone colors of the year and they did! The Woodard Collection for the bar lounge makes me smile - big! Their vintage plates with delicate rose quartz details and serenity goblets were the perfect pair.
Cakes are truly an art form in themselves, especially when it comes to those made by Maria, owner of RooneyGirl BakeShop. With multi-layered cakes on trend, each layer offers itself to a separate expression in style, mixing and matching colors and textures and making sure each tier counts. Think of it as each tier as having its own personality. We incorporated crystals, quartz, and geodes as well as copper and marbled fondant. Maria incorporated all of these elements into her incredible design and brought our vision to life, impeccably! When it comes to paper goods in 2016 consider shine and texture with gilded calligraphy, always calligraphy, in copper or gold tones. Calligraphy remains a strong trend, that we don’t see going anywhere anytime soon. Who doesn’t want pretty and romantic lettering on their invitations?! Darla Vietti, Darla Marie Designs, chose copper and rose quartz to use in our lovely invitation suite. Marble is also trending and adds cool tones and textures. We used cut pieces of marble to display our menus and place cards. Adorned with copper calligraphy by Pirouette Paper. We anticipate copper accents popping up more this year in addition to the ever popular rose gold. Beauty and the Beach was onsite to get our models glammed! Natural and romantic are still the buzz in bridal hair and makeup. Braids are still in and are becoming more intricate, so we created a one of a kind braided up do, and multi braid fishtail as well as accentuating some amazing natural curls! In makeup matte and long lasting are replacing sticky high gloss lips. We opted for bright springy colors for a cohesive look. The rest of the makeup was kept soft and nodded to the 2016 Pantone colors.
Even though gold and rose gold are holding their own in jewelry, many brides are still opting to simply echo the details highlighted in their dresses. Petals & Stones provided all the beautiful sparkle that served as the icing on the cake so to speak! Statement earrings, bracelets bold brides are still stacking and always, always a hair accessory! Personalized food and signature drinks are such a fun way to add creative details to your wedding. We absolutely loved how Colette’s Catering used the Pantone colors of the year in their bite sized appetizers and desserts. The Cocktail Concierge created delicious concoctions to highlight the Pantone colors also. Why not start your celebration with pre-ceremony libations? In 2016 it’s all about the textures and patterns for linens. Luxe Linen had the perfect pieces and sparkles to complete our look. -Amy of All In The Detail Design
