MEET Chelsea

Inspired by the natural romance of the mountains and country, every detail in this editorial design was incredible. From the two ethereal bridal looks, the neutral but romantic table setting, and wildflower-like arrangements that looked like they were just plucked from the garden. This mountainside micro wedding inspiration will have you pining for a wedding in Colorado that’s smaller, but still has all the bells and whistles.

This shoot was designed by the incredible MaryClaire and Rachael Ellen events. They pulled together a team of vendors that was sure to impress, and impress they did. The bride wore an an off the shoulder LEANNE MARSHALL gown with a perfectly-puffed sleeve and the groom wore a sage tweed suit. These looks paired perfectly with the intimate ceremony setup featuring a white ground floral arrangement that looked like it was blossoming right out of the earth. It was natural, yet elevated and romantic.

The bride and groom’s second look for the reception was just as show-stopping. The bride wore a NEWHITE BRIDAL gown, antique statements earrings, and a sleek up-do. The groom swapped his simple sage suit for a black tux which was just the right statement against the backdrop of the mountainside and sage brush.

The table setting was again, natural and romantic, with a soft color palette of natural ivory linen and soft taupe napkins paired with grey china, ivory bone flatware, and classic glassware. 

The stationary by Ink and Press Co was inspired by the pairing of old English countryside and the natural elements therein. The paper suite even featured blind embossed chocolate box favours, rose tea bags, and a custom rosé label that matched the crest outline of the invitation.

This editorial was one I am so thrilled to have been a part of. Capturing the hard work and artistry of so many talented vendors was a true blessing and one that I will always remember fondly!
