Flora, Class and Style

There is nothing more classy and romantic than lilac and navy, don’t you think? Oh, there is just so much to love in this styled shoot. The floral accents in every detail definitely create this luxurious feel and add to the overall ambiance. The inspiration for this shoot was to combine classic romance with a charming taste of vintage, while adding a touch of whimsical bohemian. Amber Palmer of Joel and Amber Wedding Photography wanted to bring together stunning elements from elegantly different and equally beautiful styles. The first two elements they dreamed up were glass covered mini cakes and fragrant lavender buds. From there, they brought together classic navy and romantic lavender as our color inspiration. Pops of pink brightened the color palette to add joyful tones to the day. You excited yet? Take a quick break as you browse through Amber Palmer’s wonderful snaps. Have fun, everyone!
