The Deets:
I love the movie "Up". I love balloons. I love vibrant colors. And I really just love "love". So when my boss from Best Day Events told me I could create my own styled shoot, I was just GIDDY with the idea of creating a wedding inspired by one of my all time favorite movies!
What is a styled shoot, you might ask? (Don't worry, I had to answer this question a million times!) A styled shoot is essentially a fake wedding that a bunch of vendors collaborate on to create ideas for couples who have a similar taste to what we put together! We then submit it to blogs and magazines for publicity! Essentially, styled shoots are the marketing avenue for people in the wedding industry!
Needless to say, I was nervous putting my shoot together--especially because the shoot date was the day right before finals week started in December!! But as stress and pressure bore down on me, I found so much joy! I found so many friends, family members, and some newly acquainted friendors who jumped in the middle of the crazy with me to help me pull off this dream of mine!!
The Shoot:
I designed this shoot for the couple that loves traveling, enjoys bright colors, and doesn't mind letting their inner-kid shine through!! From vintage suitcases filled with cupcakes and macaroons, to archways infused with balloons and gorgeous flowers, to invitations that are to-die-for because they just ooze travel inspiration, this styled shoot was everything that I could have dreamed it would be and more!! Check out the full shoot today on www.weddingchicks.com !! For now, enjoy!!
