Style Me Pretty: Enchanted Forest Wedding the Design

I typically don’t get to design anything but the paper for weddings, so this shoot was so much because I got to be on the design part of the wedding as well. Misty of Bells and Bliss, Hollye Mackler Designs and Dionne of The Shooting Gallery all played huge rolls in the look of our Enchanted Forest Wedding.
Hollye and Misty did an amazing job with the linens, table decor and gorgeous lanterns.

Hollye suggested a violinist for the Enchanted Forest Wedding to go with the whole etheral theme.

The amazing bouquet from Emplume was made with feathers and MUSHROOMS!
Feather Boutinnere from Emplume.
Emplume also made this crazy bridesmaid’s bouquet that was a wicker ball with butterflies and it little up inside with a tiny hot pink light!

I had the idea to use fireflies inside of a lantern as the ring bearer pillow! I purchased fireflies from Fireflies in A Jar and used a lantern candle holder to make my own lantern.

Gorgeous dress from Sarah Seven.

The hair and makeup were stunning. The bride even had a tiny rhinestones in the corner of her eyes.

Three tiered wedding cake with hand painted butterflies from Christine’s Cakes.

I loved the idea of using different fairy tale elements in the shoot and I asked Christine’s Cakes to make tiny poured chocolate cakes with said Eat Me.

I absolutely adore these photos of our bride and groom.

In my own collection, I have 100 year old story books that I lovingly carried to the shoot. They fit in perfectly with the entire story book theme and I love these shots of the bridal party with the books and the log bench.

Thank you to the entire team!
