Styled Shoot | By Design Weddings + Events

I was so sweetly honoured that Brittany and Katie of By Design Weddings + Events asked me to be apart of this fabulous styled shoot which also doubled in creating some lovely images for the brand new website and branding !!

A few words from Katie and Brittany about the shoot …. “For this shoot we wanted to create something modern, beautiful, soft, romantic and sexy. We asked one of our now-married couples, Kelly and Jason, to be our “models” – and WOW, did they ever deliver!”  For the hair and make-up we wanted something modern and unique, while still creating a romantic look for our bride. The bride was wearing double lashes, which made her eyes sultry and sexy; yet her pink lip screamed romantic. Her hair was very intricate – a real work of art. The dress had a grand tulle skirt and was soft and flowing, but dramatic. The top was lightly embroidered with some lacy goodness. Our groom, wore a charcoal suit, complete with a beautiful silver tie and white shirt. The stationary was a combination of beautiful blush satin fabric, silver ribbon, ivory lace, blush paper, and just the right amount of bling to create the absolute perfect stationary look. This luxurious florals were created using tall floral arrangements, in soft pinks and whites, with crystals dripping down from the base. Flowers inside water-filled vases, topped with floating candles. A soft, modest bouquet and boutonniere for the couple. The cake was soft ivory with a hint of blush detail in the flower, and a few small rhinestones, with cascading petals floating down the edge of the cake. The Oak Bay Beach Hotel just reopened in late 2012. There is no shortage of beautiful spots for incredible photos!  From the blush pink rosette overlay, to the silver rosette linen that made our stationary table come alive, to the soft ivory lace overlays that romantically draped the cake table – the various colours and textures created a luxurious and romantic look, without overdoing it. White candelabras, silver chargers, and ivory chiavari chairs and silver organza bow completed our look.
