Last month when Cavin Elizabeth shared her pink bridal shoot (take a peek!), she was already dreaming up another inspiring editorial, this time with the team at Simply Gorgeous Events. One snap on Insta and we knew we had to see more from this modern pink wedding, especially that killer floral installation by The Dainty Lion. Right up our alley, no?

Kayla of Simply Gorgeous Events says, When dreaming up this shoot, I had a vision of a perfect summer evening wedding. My goal was to create a sophisticated and classic look rather than a bohemian vibe that bright colors can sometimes bring. The Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa  was the perfect backdrop for this shoot with it’s beautiful courtyard and lawn space. The venue feels romantic and classy from the moment you walk through the doors, and I wanted to create a wedding that felt the same. For the ceremony, I was inspired by the courtyard white wall on the staircase. I loved the idea of our couple being slightly elevated above the guests, and envisioned a beautiful installation as a backdrop. Obviously, Kim of The Dainty Lion took my vision to an entirely new level as she created one of the most gorgeous wall installations I’ve seen!

I also wanted to add fun elements that go hand-in-hand with summer, so the talented team at Snake Oil Cocktail Co dreamed up creative cocktails featuring cotton candy and popsicles. Additionally, the creative ladies of Sweet Cheeks Baking Co created a vibrant dessert spread with cake shooters, mini tarts, cookies, and a gorgeous cake.
