Modern Monochromatic Blue Wedding Inspiration featuring David’s Bridal

With its light, airy feel, this romantic wedding inspiration designed by the gorgeous and talented Louise Beukes is beyond stunning! A unique color palette of copper, blue, apricot, and rust is truly seasonless and perfect for the chic and stylish couple. Flowing silks from Kate Cullen and loose, delicate blooms designed by Bo Boutique are soft and elegant, while mini cakes from Claire Owen Cakes and agate place cards calligraphed by Oh Wonder Calligraphy add a whimsical and unexpected touch. And speaking of unexpected, the whitewashed loft setting is turned into a garden wonderland with loose branches added as a backdrop for the jaw-droppingly beautiful tabletop! Each and every detail is perfectly captured on film by Hannah Duffy!

There are some days that are simply perfect, and today is one of those days, because at long last, we are debuting Aisle Society to the world, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to share the absolutely gorgeous Aisle Society official brand shoot that I styled with Lauren of Every Last Detail and a dream team of Chicago’s best wedding pros at downtown’s most fabulous wedding venue, Chez. Together with the ladies from Estera Events, we set out to create an event that would showcase all of the things that Aisle Society represents: fun, friendship, community, and of course, utterly beautiful wedding inspiration! Dramatic draping from Drape Kings was the centerpiece of the room, swathed along the ceiling and leading to a ceremony altar flanked by simple but show-stopping eucalyptus arrangements from Fleur. In the rest of the details, we bathed the whitewashed space in color! Our gorgeous ladies donned frocks from Bella Bridesmaids and David’s Bridal in shades from blush to dusty blue and flowing Truvelle and Sarah Seven bridal gowns, carrying bouquets of vibrant summer blooms. The modern but elegant tabletop features glimmering sequin linens and rose gold chargers and amazing confetti popper menus from Sarah Drake Design. I’m brimming with excitement for you to watch the video of the day by the insanely talented Nicodem Creative (I dare you not to get goose bumps!) and see every gorgeous image from Alexis June Weddings!

Inspired by the architecture and verdant gardens of Andalucía, this shoot from Bloomfield Photography is a flawless combination of grand venue and intimate outdoor space. A stunning organic green floral arch by Anais Floristas frames the intimate ceremony space and the bold Pantone blues used for the tablescape complement the vibrant greens of the surrounding Botanical Gardens of Málaga. The villa had never opened its doors to a styled shoot before but we are so very glad they decided to allow Reviva Weddings and the entire team to create something that showcases the stately manor and lush gardens so perfectly!

Flirty springtime shades paired with modern touches of gray is making our day today. Courtesy of the lens of Anja Schneeman Photography, we’re on cloud nine staring at these lovely photos of a bride draped in the dreamiest Berta dress. The popping purple appliqué on the gown was quite elemental according to German event designer Irka Fürle from Magnolias on Silk; it inspired the florals for the tablescape and rightfully so! A blend of rosy orchids, lilac-and-mauve colored roses, pink chrysanthemum, and white anthurium make the reception table so warm and inviting, while the stark white plates continue the modernity that this genius team of vendors wanted to play with. If you’re in a part of the world where it’s freezing, let this sweet inspo warm you right up.

Maine’s Cliff House provided the inspiration for this modern and minimalist inspiration shoot designed by Field Floral Design. The venue provided so many textures, with its marble bar, white subway-tiled walls, and patterned wood floors, and this shoot brings together the beauty of the cliffside surroundings with sleek details such as ultra-shiny black plates, smooth white linens, teak vessels, and minimalist florals in shades of lilac and garnet. Edgy details, such as a charcoal bridal veil, were just a bit out of the ordinary, accentuating the chic aesthetic. Understated, sans-serif stationery from Little Yellow Leaf and a smooth, fondant cake by Lisa Parker Cakes completed the setting. Each image captured on film by Jordan Brittley Photography is magical!

Dreamy, light-filled, and organic… this bridal fashion shoot from Kristen Kay Photography has us absolutely spellbound! Showcasing gowns from indie designers at Grey Pearl, Kristen captured the intricate details, elegant flowing fabric, and beautiful lines of gowns for all bridal styles. Cultivate Goods created a series of stunning bouquets with protea, magnolia leaves, and dusty purple roses, each designed to showcase the unique beauty of gowns by Chantel Lauren, Dolly Pearl, Jaclyn Jordan NY, Christopher Paunil, Loulette Bride, and Tatyana Merenyuk. Each gown is utterly gorgeous, and we are head over heels for the images captured on film by Kristen Kay Photography!

When a new gown collection debuts by the designer known for dressing style icons like Grace Kelly and Jackie Kennedy, you know it’s bound to be fantastic! Oleg Cassini created a suite of gorgeous dresses for David’s Bridal, and the ladies of Aisle Society captured the timeless elegance of the designs perfectly with a “Grace Kelly in the Hamptons” shoot at Richmond, VA’s Seven Springs that is absolutely swoon-worthy! The gorgeous wedding dresses took center stage, with dreamy pale pink lace, retro silhouettes, beautiful beading, and classic accessories, and divine florals by Amanda Burnette beautifully coordinated with the bridal gowns and bridesmaids dresses in shades of wine, quartz, and steel blue. The tabletop had a decidedly nautical feel, with a model boat centerpiece floating on a bed of greenery, heirloom glassware, and hand-lettered mussel shell place cards. A retro cocktail bar from Cozy Caravan Club finished off the day: the perfect mix of vintage and modern. Totally spellbound by the images captured by the spectacular Nikki Santerre Photography!

I am so excited to share this Elegant Romance inspiration shoot from the our Aisle Society Experience presented by Minted! Our team led by Michelle Elaine Weddings was inspired by timeless elegance and weddings that will be just as lovely in 50 years as they are today. Diana Gould Designs Ltd. transformed an industrial loft space into an elegant wonderland, with a stunning tent, dramatic chandeliers, and a lush centerpiece of greenery and glimmering candles. Elegant mismatched tableware from Borrowed and Blu brought a dash of deep burgundy to each place setting, where we tied the vintage silver with champagne velvet and blush shimmer ribbon from Minted. We loved the unexpected touch of the sheer linens from Nuage Designs set atop a French-inspired mirrored tabletop from Luxe Event Rentals! Mixing metallics is always in style, and a silvery Galia Lahav gown from Bridal Reflections paired perfectly. Doesn’t my dear friend Willow look amazing? MG Hair and Makeup always creates the most stunning bridal looks. The pièce de résistance? Minted’s gorgeous Gilded Wildflowers stationery suite. So thrilled to share some of my favorite images ever from Alexis June Weddings with all of you!

Equal parts glamorous and playful, this garden wedding inspiration shoot from Marsais, Blush and Vine, and Weddings by Jessee channels inspiration from Marie Antoinette and cotton candy! The unique juxtaposition perfectly captures the sweetness of Brittany and Ethan’s love for one another, and combines for a whimsical fairytale shoot not to be soon forgotten. Enchanting details such as a mirrored table, hand-painted opal dinnerware, and dramatic black taper candles set the scene, with lush compote-style arrangements from Blush and Vine completing the glimmering tabletop. Cotton candy from Lush Puff echoes the gown from Carol Hannah with swaths of tulle, and sleek black accents from the silk ribbon by Honey Silks & Co. to fabulous Manolo Blahnik heels play up the glamorous style. We are swooning over every unexpected detail in the lovely images captured on film by Marsais!

It’s often said that “Paris is always a good idea,” and today’s modern and chic inspiration shoot styled by Caroline Dutton Events marries classic French details with a modern feel. A custom art backdrop from Christine Olmstead, the marbled details of Baltimore’s Congress Hotel, and a sleek and contemporary mirrored tabletop are perfectly paired with watercolor stationery by Just Write Studios and a gilded cake from Buttercream Bakeshop that feels straight from Versailles! A sophisticated tulle dress by Amsale has a classic feel, with an illusion back detailed with satin buttons. And an on-trend, cascading bouquet from Eight Tree Street is overflowing with peonies, roses, and larkspur. Prepare to fall in love with the beauty captured by Camille Catherine Photography!

The folding of paper cranes is said to bring luck but also is said to be representative of the time and patience it takes to sustain a happy marriage. The most prominent design element for Ariel and Eric’s New York wedding was hundreds of paper cranes hung and placed throughout their beautiful venue, Gary’s Loft in Manhattan. It was a modern and hip wedding with lots of natural light and fresh details. I love Ariel’s perfect party shoes – some fabulous, sparkly, Steve Madden oxfords! Such a fabulous party with fabulous photos by Justine Bursoni Photography!

Ahh, just the thought of a wedding brings so much joy and happiness. What better way to celebrate this memorable milestone than with an all-out Arkansas party! Literally a good old fashioned Big Party! This is exactly the vision that came true for one couple recently when they got married in front of their family and friends in an extravagant wedding reception filled with love, joy – and of course partying! Read on to find out more about this memorable celebration.

This gorgeous shoot has the perfect blend of coral and blue hues to really make it POP. From the elegant updo, to the grandeur of the cascading florals, this wedding inspiration really knows how to incorporate color and elegance to create a perfect image. We love these colors because they remind us of the softness of spring, and the pop of summer. 

Chicago History Museum has been Nora’s dream wedding venue ever since she learned to ride her bike there as a kid, so it was an obvious choice when her college sweetheart, Daniel, popped the question! With its iconic checkered floor, stone façade, ivory crown molding, and crystal chandeliers, it was important to the couple that they highlight the venue’s elegance. Working with their planner Clover Events, they chose a fresh white color palette for the florals by Revel Décor, adding just a hint of blue in the ceremony arrangements as well as the bridesmaids’ dresses. Countless meaningful details filled the day, making it a special event for the bride and groom as well as all their guests and Ashley Bosnick Photography was there to capture this stunning event!

A backdrop of verdant green climbing ivy and dreamy painterly florals would play a muse for any impressionist artist, so it’s no wonder that Indigo Event Design chose the stunning gardens and chateau of Monet Vineyards for this Claude Monet-inspired shoot. BLUE Floral Company created a pastel rainbow of locally-sourced florals to paint the outdoor ceremony space and stunning bouquet that is worthy of Monet’s brush itself. Lush centerpieces of coral and butter yellow peonies, lavender scabiosa, and dusty blush roses sit atop a french blue table, with just the right touch of regal elegance from gold flatware and chargers. Romantic and intimate, these photos by RTFaith Photography prove that even a micro-wedding can be a fairytale wedding too!

The words chic and French go hand in hand, so it’s no surprise that although this shoot by P3 Events was inspired by the bountiful florals and gardens of the French countryside, it is also exceptionally stylish. Overflowing and lush florals by BloomingBelles Rentals feature blooms in soft shades of ivory and lavender, while irises and delphinium bring the perfect French Blue to the palette. A bold red lip and off-the-shoulder Tara Lauren gown convey the confidence of the bride and her white hat is a super fashionable touch to complete the look perfectly. Thank you to Andi Artigue Photography for these gorgeous photos that look like they are right out of The Secret Garden!

Any way you spin the color green in a wedding palette, it is quite the versatile shade. From soft pastels like mint or sage to deep hues like the beautiful emerald or hunter green, you can easily use this earthy color at any wedding during any time of the year if you fancy it. It’s so timeless and we’re glad that wedding extraordinaires like Olive Fine Weddings & Events and Alexandra Lee ran on the same wavelength as us. This styled shoot has a hefty helping of green all over it, and if you take out the seemingly wintry elements to this inspo, you can readily use it all throughout the year. The luxe blooms by Willrett Flower Co. (check out the installation framing the sweetheart table!) may need some tweaking when it comes to what’s in season and what’s in your area, but no matter if you’re a spring or summer bride-to-be eyeing this shade of green, you’ll certainly get the same gorgeous effect that Alexandra snapped for us.

Let’s all take a moment (or two) out of our day to check out this bliss-inducing Janita Mestre wedding. It’s delightfully in the desert, so of course you’re going to spot a few cacti at Galway Downs, but you’re going to see such a dreamy color palette too. Being so close to Valentine’s Day, Stephanie and Alex wanted to evoke love all throughout, so they picked pink as their go-to hue. Big and bright blush and ivory florals by Events by Floral Sensations complemented the eye-catching David’s Bridal mauve bridesmaids’ dresses, and we loved this idea, too. Instead of continuing the soft tones everywhere, shake up the colors like Stephanie and Alex and throw a deep hue in the same color family somewhere that will be seen. Adding it to the bridesmaids’ dresses was a clever touch without overwhelming the couple’s desire to have an airy feel to their wedding day.

We just want more and more of this Texas wedding shoot by ML Photo & Film! We can’t get enough of those sky high magnolia trees and the ultra-southern Woodbine Mansion sitting pretty in the background. To our heart’s delight, Eclipse Event Co. wanted to keep the style fresh and sweet as tea, with the always-classic white and ivory paired with cornflower blue accents along with hints of gold in the cutlery and peach linens. The medium powdery blue certainly stood out on the sprawling manor’s grounds, tying everything together to result in an epic rendition of “southern charm”. This one is certainly for the Pinterest boards!
