Happy, happy Friday, all! Isn’t this warehouse elopement ceremony design coming to us from photog Michelle Larmand and One Palm by laryssalee so intriguing? Aside from the incredibly gorgeous floral arch by Wildly Us, the use of fruit, candles, and African textiles in such a minimal, urban space like the Foundry Room in Edmonton is such an unexpectedly perfect combo:

Larissa’s goal was to marry the textures and patterns of African textures with the industrial chic surroundings.

We’ve sure seen a lot of romantic Rue De Seine gowns, but this piece from The Bridal Boutique is a whole new level. It has laser cut velvet re-appliquéd onto open work mesh, long fitted sleeves, and an open back, not to mention a full and dramatic train. Swoon!

K, can’t keep scrolling without a little shout out to The Helm on their stylish groom’s attire (BTW, their online store is having a big sale!). This wool jacket with the green windowpane pattern is totally 100LC approved.
