Natural Whimsy.......part two of the inspiration shoot.

I hope you all enjoyed the images from part one as much as we enjoyed creating them. On to part two now....
Part two is all about the details! We wanted to do a soft, romantic, whimsical shoot that incorporated some natural elements and a bit of southern charm. Well for one thing, we couldn't have found a better place than the Museum of Appalachia as a backdrop and for another thing, no one could have suited the part of our naturally beautiful bride better than my sweet friend Elizabeth Seymour. In fact Liz was sort of a muse for the day! I wanted every thing to be light and airy, sweet and southern, natural and whimsical all at the same time.....and by George I think we got it;)

The dress and the gorgeous accessories from Wedding Wonderland fit the theme and the bride (in size and style) so perfectly I'm pretty sure she would have loved to take them home for her own big day! The soft airy quality of the gown and the simplicity of the accessories flowed perfectly with the wild flower quality of the bouquet. The flowers used for the bouquet were white scabiosa, white lysianthus, pale pink spray roses, soft yellow football mums, pink heather, creme stock, white veronica, pink alstroemeria lilies, Queen Ann's lace, accented with antique brooches.The table decor consisted of the same flowers designed in low antique milk glass vases, placed on a soft runner of sheet moss. The arrangements were complimented by crystal stemware and candle holders. Menu cards were place on handmade tree bark holders, and held in place with burlap ribbon and handmade silk and lace flowers. All topped off with antique buttons. The adorable little pink ruffled cake from Sassy Cakes of Knoxville was just perfect for the shoot. The delicate pink ruffles were the perfect accent to look (and it was soooo yummy too)! The favors incorporated two aspects of the style we were going for, nature and southern charm. Favor one consisted of saplings wrapped in burlap and accented with antique buttons. Favor two was delicate antique handkerchiefs to be given out with the message, "For happy tears only."
