I’ve been really inspired by the Versailles gardens lately, reminiscing on my trips there, and imagining what types of florals and romantic dinner settings I might want to create in modern day that still capture the essence of a garden style classic look that might correlate to the still life paintings inside the palace.
I know there is a lot of inspiration out there right now using blush and golds in shoots, but I wanted to do something that switched the order around slightly, playing within the classic color scheme. So, putting a bride in a blush dress, and painting some of the ferns gold in her bouquet were some subtle ways of offering some new inspiration for a look that is so loved. Since I do both fresh and dried flower arrangements for couples, I wanted to use both in a shoot to show how they can intermingle with harmony as we see in the florals on the napkin details. This shoot really is the result of my wild imagination. My husband and I went to visit Versailles for our anniversary 4 years ago, and there was a tiny house on the property (probably originally for the grounds keepers, or maybe as a large shed), we joked and said we’d live there if given the opportunity, and I sort of just imagined what our tiny dinner parties would be like if we ever lived in such a tiny place in the French countryside or on a minuscule corner of the Versailles gardens. And as a result, a bridal shoot was born.
