Between Miss Kelli Murray’s sweet dried lavender favor bags and this summery inspiration shoot, we’re on a bit of a lavender kick today. For this shoot, A Charming Occasion and Lavender & Twine Photography had the idea to throw some citrus into the mix too. From the wardrobe to the Bellini bar to the abundant florals, pops of these two hues add some cheery brightness to each element.

Joelle from A Charming Occasion says, Non-white wedding gowns are everywhere these days, but I’d yet to see anything lavender. So my first order was business was finding a pretty lavender tulle skirt for our blushing bride to wear. We paired it with a simple white button-up shirt and a lavender head wreath to bring the look full circle.

Maravilla Gardens boasts some of the most delicious citrus around, so I made good use of the tangerines that came straight from the venue! You can see the fruit and the color used in a variety of ways, including our place cards and the centerpiece by These Buds a Blooming.
