What can we say. The fall season just got away from us. It was a delightfully busy time of warm colors, sweet weddings and gala events. We even secretly, in the midst of it all, found time to spend a few hours to play with our friends at Carissa Chee Photography and Nouvelle Soiree for a vintage styled bridal shoot.
And now we have a confession to make. We have been holding these beautiful photos captive since this past fall, hidden for only us to admire. That is, until today.
Join us, won’t you, as we look back at the beautifully styled elements from this creative ensemble – from florals to tablescapes to hair, makeup to the photography itself. You might even find some spring inspiration for your own special shoot to come…








A special thanks to Cari of Carissa Chee Photography, Brooke of Nouvlle Soiree, Amy Gooch (hair & makeup) and Wayne of Floral Visions. It was our pleasure opening the barn to you and watching your creativity unfold.
Thank you so much for the amazing renovation of this wonderful set of buildings. We drove by these beautiful barns for years, still unique and lovely structures despite their gradual falling into disrepair, and wondered about their fate. I hoped so much that they would not be leveled to put in a strip mall or a gas station. To have seen the barns before their rescue and then to go through the renovation pictures and finally reach the stunning photo of the beautiful bride in the majestic ballroom actually brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for saving this historic site and turning it to such a wonderful use.
