Blue and White Wedding Inspiration

The first time I spoke with Caroline Cash (owner of The Prettiest Pieces) we were already talking about doing a shoot together. I asked her if there was anything in particular she was dying to showcase, and when she mentioned her blue and white collection I knew we had our winner.

Organizing and styling this shoot at The Parlour at Mann’s Chapel was a blast, and a true testament to the power of collaboration between so many talented professionals. I am so thrilled with the way it all came together, and how perfectly everything was captured!

Ceremony

The Parlour is a beautiful venue for a wedding! The renovated chapel features hardwood floors, stained glass windows, and a lovely little outdoor patio. We staged the ceremony indoors, styling their mirrored altar with lanterns & greenery.

Sweetheart Table

The Parlour has this cool vintage mantle, and it went perfectly behind their drop-leaf table and The Prettiest Pieces’ deep blue settee. Add some candlesticks and greenery and you have a sweetheart set-up to die for!

Bar

The Parlour has an AMAZING bar. We styled this gorgeous piece with a lush floral arrangement, silver champagne chiller, wooden cutting board, crystal decanters, and of course a few bottles of whiskey.

Cake

Every time I see Kristina’s cakes, I am instantly drooling. My new favorite flavor is her pumpkin! For this inspiration shoot we faked a cake cutting, complete with the models smashing some in each other’s faces.
