Fall Inspired Shoot

Fall is officially here, which in Phoenix means the weather forecast is below 90 degrees every day this week! We are excited for the change in season and to get our creative juices flowing. Together, with an amazing team, we designed some Fall wedding inspirations for you!

As you pull into the luxurious estate at Chateau de Vie, you feel like you are entering into a whole new world. Justin Douglas, a fabulous fine art photographer, captured every detail to share with you!

Our bride, Jackeline, wore a whimsical Pronovias Espiga gown from Schaffer’s in Old Town Scottsdale. On her finger, she wore Olive Avenue’s drop-dead-gorgeous Montgomery ring. Her groom, Jared, sported a slick navy suit and floral neck tie. Our stunning bridesmaids, Olivia and Sammy, wore long chiffon dresses from Ivory Row with different shades of green for a pop of color. 

Allison of Array Design created amazing flower arrangements with a Fall color palette and texture.

Koral, owner of Braids and Bobby Pins, worked her magic with elegant make-up on the ladies paired with some fun bold hair styles!

The table space always holds a special place in my heart. It is the area where people come together and create memories, especially around the holidays. Lisa, of Beautiful Things Event Rentals, brought her stunning wood tables and chairs. Each piece of the table setting was handpicked from Material Girls. Our calligrapher, Jenn, created fabulous name cards, matching the elegant invitation suite she designed. And we can’t forget my favorite part of a party, dessert! Veronica of Dessert First created an airy/cotton cake tied with Froufrou Chic ribbon.

As a wedding planner, I have an eye for all of the details and the important job of ensuring that everything is in place on a wedding day. There is something energizing working with a team of vendors, turned friends, to create something that inspires others. Each of these pieces-the dress, the flowers, the rings, the angles, the napkin folds…they matter to me. But, not like the people. The moments of fixing the bride’s dress, holding a bouquet and chatting with the florist as she ties the ribbon, chugging water with the photographer and laughing about the heat, these are the moments that I live for. This isn’t just about creating a place that feels like a fairy tale, this is about connections and love-with couples and with these fabulous vendors! Follow their journeys below…
