Today’s lovely styled shoot, photographed by Jess Hunter, captures the rustic, wild, + untouched beauty of the great outdoors, and blends it with layers of understated elegance. When integrated with intention, the juxtaposition of these two opposing styles can act as the prettiest foundation for a beautiful + romantic outdoor wedding. Wouldn’t you agree?!
The table decor by Vintage Ambiance expressed the theme to a T. And textural feel of the overgrown floral arrangements, designed by Kelly of Botanique, really popped against the foggy, muted scenery. Get ready to swoon over all the prettiness…
The focal flower in this beautiful bouquet was acidanthria (common name peacock orchid), and it was accented with rust amaranthus, fern, evergreen + snowberry sprigs. Super in love!
And the talented ladies of Antiquaria took care of the lovely paper goods + calligraphy!
So pretty, right? If you are planning a wedding or elopement outdoors (this includes the US + Europe) in a gorgeous nature setting, be sure to email Jess Hunter (the photographer) for some amazing specials! Just let her know you found her via GWS! :)
