I love today’s styled inspiration – an underwater garden themed styled shoot! Inspired by the bride’s dress with a beautiful watercolor floral pattern along its hem, the team began to dream up lots of gorgeous underwater inspiration. By combing the painterly qualities of the dress with bright colors + sea life décor, they created a whimsical underwater garden party that would delight couples-to-be.
Today’s shoot is also designed with the budget-conscious and DIY couple in mind. One easy tip they incorporated is using vases with small mouths for easy arranging and maximum impact. Other DIY projects included a dip-dye tablecloth made to resemble waves, watercolor napkins + invites, and a show-stopping fabric chandelier that cost them only $25 to make! The end result reflects what the world underwater is truly like: from sparkling schools of fish to clusters of bright coral, the sea is a veritable explosion of every shade in the rainbow!
Thanks so much to all these creative artists for sharing their talents with us today!

I love how the couple pulled so many colors from the bottom of the bride’s dress! Everything meshed so well together and I believe it was the dress that did it!
OMG I love the dress with all the colors at the bottom and the flowers. It is gorgous.
Thank you so much for featuring our shoot, Jen! It is truly an honor :)

The pastel colours work so well here – that cake is sooooo cute!!!
The surrounding is absolutely stunning, there’s something so peaceful and tranquil about being by the water.
I personally really like outdoor weddings, although across the pond (in the UK) can be a little trickier, because of the weather for example. For more info, please check out this blog post: http://www.soireedeluxe.co.uk/blog/can-an-outdoor-reception-still-be-formal/
A huge congratulations to the wonderful couple! :D
