The Southern Suite - Chantelle and Jon

 

 

The Southern Suite collaborated for the second shoot of the Perfectly Set contest where two beautiful couples were voted our lucky winners. Chantelle and Jon were our couple of the day and they were such a treat to work with.  (We worked with them at Bloom prior to this shoot for their stunning wedding, so it was fun to do this little project with them again!)

The shoot took place in a enchanting location where the willow trees hung romantically around our styled tablescape. The table was styled with a palette of grey, soft pink and metallics. The vintage china, elegant stationery (designed by Des of Paper Airplanes) and delicate flower arrangement and bouquet we designed helped create a stunning backdrop to our beautiful couple.

 

 

We dressed the table with a soft mix of flowers to match the linens. Lilies, hydrangeas, orchids, snapdragons, and texture garden-like greens complimented the soft tones and shiney metals so nicely.

 

 

Chantelle wore a romantic strapless mermaid gown provided by Bliss Bridal Boutique in Winnipeg. A custom handmade fascinator designed by Kari of Dove Tree Art & Design was pinned amongst her chic braided updo by Kim at Shear Bliss Salon and Day Spa and Chantelle's look was polished off with soft, romantic make up by talented makeup artist Audrey of Glo Makeup Studios.

 

 



   Once the table was set and the couple was ready, we let the fabulous ladies of Jack & Ruby Photography and Lani Elias Fine Art Photography do their magic. And with this location, this couple and the whole team pitching it, it felt like magic!

 

 

Chantelle's bouquet was slightly understated to not compete with her glamorous look, but we added a few subtle accents to give it something interesting. Gorgeous Cool Water roses, soft Dusty Miller, vintage oversized grey pearls, knotted lace, orchids and sedum made up the majority of the handtie. It's soft, subtle palate was feminine and delicate and matched the style so well.
