We have seen the steady shift of brides incorporating bohemian themed elements into their wedding decor – a trend we love by the way!  Today’s post features a recent style shoot that combines the causal effortlessness of boho chic with luxe details and elegance. Riverwood Mansion was the ideal space where we used warm purple-pinks gold and ivory to highlight the historic features. Braiding the table runners and our model’s effortless style gave the look the bohemian feel we were after.  Romantic and gorgeous!

The fab photos below are courtesy of Amy Nicole Photography and we need to give kudos to the creative masterminds that helped up with this superbly stylish look – Kelly Dellinger Events and Anne Whitson.  In fact, we were stylish enough to be featured on Ruffled’s Blog – pretty exciting!  We are looking forward to seeing more Bohemian style as this trend takes hold in Middle Tennessee.

Nothing quite says spring like a garden filled with soft pastels.  Our watercolor themed shoot worked beautifully in the gardens of CJ’s Off the Square.  Known for their full service wedding styling and all-inclusive event packages, this historic venue is a favorite of ours.  Events and weddings here often feature pieces from our Vintage Prop Shoppe – including our Cora couch and Marjorie vintage coffee table below – they just look so perfect together!

The dreamy images are courtesy of Amy Nicole Photography – she also shot last summer’s Nashville Venue Crawl at Houston Station and is fast becoming a favorite of ours.  Enjoy!

For Caitlin and Dominic’s big day, these two love birds celebrated with their closest friends and family in style!  Their winter wedding in Nashville, featured black and white decor adding a modern feel to the rustic industrial venue.  Bold black folding chairs, crisp white linens are a stark but elegant contrast to the wood pillars and brick backdrop. Italian string lights and crystal chandliers from our friends at Bright Event Productions made the space come to life.

Thank you to Beautiful Day Photography for the gorgeous photos below, and best wishes to the newlyweds -Caitlin and Dominic!  We loved working with you both 🙂

When life gives you lemons, we say take the lemonade and create a fab style shoot!  We did just that, partnering with vendors from Wedding 101 to create this causal and colorful style shoot at the Lighthouse Event and Wedding Center in Hendersonville.  Our color palette included luscious lemon and lime paired against gray and white creating a youthful preppy look.  Next to the water and under the brilliant blue sky and life is very sweet!

Thanks to Complete MVP for the great photos – You can see more pictures from this shoot on the Story Board Wedding Blog where they graciously featured this fun style shoot 🙂

We have been looking forward to sharing Melissa and Rob’s summer wedding with you since we first starting working with this sweet couple.  The couple envisioned a relaxed, elegant celebration highlighting the canopy of nature that surround the lakeside site.  We took their vision and added our White Wash Farm Tables, Cross-Back Chairs, Heirloom China, and various items from our Vintage Prop Shoppe for a result that is simply stunning!

Gregory Byerline was the uber-talented shooter behind the awesome pictures you see below.  While he generally specializes in bridal portraiture, he considers a limited number of weddings in a year that he shoots.  Either way, working with him always means AMAZING images and he should definitely be on your short list of Nashville photographers.

Congrats to Melissa and Rob – We hope your day was a magical as it looked 🙂

We were thrilled to have been apart this recent Winter Wonderland Wedding style shoot that was filled with gorgeous accents and beautiful designs at the Cheekwood Botanical Gardens. With the help of Wedding 101, this wedding pulled off the rustic chic – meets – glamorous style beautifully, and the linens and coverings were able to add a touch of vintage class to the event as well.  And with chilly temps outside, this stylish take on winter wedding decor will warm you right up!

The images below showcase the blending of these different style – glamorous and rustic – The white, blue and silver hues created a magical wintry feel when combined with the romantic candles, hydrangeas and table settings, while the rustic inspired decor on the outdoor tables made for a vintage chic style.  You can see more images from our feature on Love and Lavender’s Blog.

Thanks to the talented Jessie Holloway Photography, we are able to show you just how perfectly it all came together!
