When you design a shoot that perfectly matches your branding, you become completely obsessed with sharing the photos! Case in point with this romantic and ethereal shoot recently featured in Weddings Unveiled magazine. Staying true to our love of neutrals, we took our inspiration for this shoot from the textures, hues and patina of the Tuscan coast. Hints of dusty blues, light wood finishes and mixed metals fused with a greenery-driven floral plan to create a Misty Mediterranean scene that flowed perfectly with the bayside landscape of the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. We seriously can’t get enough of this one!

Dana and Colin’s lavender-inspired waterfront wedding was nothing short of a dream! Working with a fabulous vendor team, we transformed the backyard of the family’s scenic estate into an elegant reception filled with soft lavenders and cool grays swirled with white-washed farm tables and natural wood accents. Stunning mixed-height floral arrangements by Amaryllis popped from the lavender linens and white tabletops, while a gorgeous, greenery-draped chandelier anchored the sweeping sailcloth tent. Still swooning!
An invigorating mix of style and sentiment filled the air, as guests celebrated this sweet couple on a property held near and dear to the bride’s heart. For Dana, her family’s second home is an anchor—a constant source of treasured memories with the people she holds most dear. Never was the family property more special, though, than when she began sharing it with Colin. A visit to the property was one of the first trips Dana and Colin took together as a couple, the beginning of a love story destined to come full circle. Enjoy!

We’re currently crushing on all things floral! So when we came across this anemone pattern by Kristy Rice at Momental Designs, we knew we had to design a shoot around it. Enter this spring bridal shower scene at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club, where the focal pattern embellished everything from the napkins to the welcome sign to the paper goods to the paint-your-own favors. Sometimes all you need is the smallest inspiration to tie a scene together! Enjoy!
