Our bride wore a beaded corset and ruffled skirt from BHLDN and jeweled blush heels that were every bit as glamorous as a fancy ballgown and glass slippers. Her veil was hand-painted with florals and fit perfectly into our garden setting. Her bouquet bursted with roses and ranunculus and our floral designer added pink bleeding hearts as a nod to our fairy tale theme.

And a few planning tips from Shannon Wellington Weddings

Small details that tell your story really make a wedding personal. Be sure to bring your wedding day perfume and accessories and ask your photographer to photograph them in your venue’s setting, not just in the hotel room where you’re getting ready.

Your sweetheart table is the perfect spot to add those special touches that you may not be able to do for every place setting. Cute place card holders, special hand dyed napkins, beautiful signage…one set on your table will still make an impact!

We so agree! Congrats guys, on such a successful shoot.
