Tropical Modern Holiday Inspired Wedding at the Historic Walton House

After an amazing styled wedding shoot that practically went viral (click here to see more), some of the vendors including Monica from Events with a Promise and Angie from Angie Lilian & Co reached out to me to ask if I would partake in another stylized wedding shoot. Of course, my answer was “Yes”. In less than a week, we all gathered together at the Historic Walton House to capture everyone’s beautifully crafted details.

Keeping it simple, I incorporated the blooms from the groom’s boutinniere and the bride’s bouquet into the invitation suite. A graphic floral envelope liner was added to the blue euro flap envelope to surprise guests with a fun pop of color. The gold trim added a nice touch to both the invitation card and rsvp card, not to mention the floral belly band as well as the matching red rsvp envelope.

Another fun detail to add in was a wax seal with my logo on it. More than anything, I’ve been wanting to include something branded into suite shots without it being super intrusive like a digitally added logo. I’m kinda in love.

Another fun detail created for the shoot was pearlized ornaments with each guest’s first name written on them.

Casa Ylang Ylang - A Styled Shoot

Anytime we are asked to participate in a styled shoot, I get giddy butterfly feelings. I love being able to think outside what a client will normally request and have some fun designing paper goods and details that will be memorable. When I was asked to join in on Whimsical, Styled Shoot at Casa Ylang Ylang, you know I was pumped with having a slightly different theme to design to.

The names were handwritten details requested by Erica Rodriguez of Erica Melissa as I would be providing more hand lettered details throughout the shoot.

Needless to say that this styled shoot was made of what tropical dreams are made of. Driving up to the venue alone took my breath away. It's quaint and gorgeous features make it a true gem amongst the many venues found in Miami. 

I'm excited to note that this shoot has been featured!

With this styled shoot, we had something a little different happen. Instead of there just being one photographer, there were over 10 photographers shooting the same imagery. This means we got to have a lot of unique aspects of the same moments. You will also notice when you go down the list that we weren't the only stationers showcased. 24th Avenue Design provided a beautiful watercolor and foil suite that gave a slightly different take on the theme for the shoot.

Keeping this in mind, I wanted to also showcase the individual point of views from each photographer. Click below to see each photographer's favorite shots from this tropical shoot.
