Bodice Beautiful 

A beaded bodice bedazzles on this bridal gown from Spark Bridal. The groom sports a charcoal tux from Aldo’s House of Formals, with bowtie and boutonniere complementing his bride’s ensemble.

Sitting Pretty 

Why give your guests ordinary patio furniture when you can rent vintage Victorian and French Provincial pieces upholstered in plush white velvet?

That’s An Understatement

Although each component is different (dig that deckled edge!), the invitation holds together thanks to an understated palette and uncommonly beautiful calligraphy.

Gilt Complex

Gold accents lend pizzazz to the proceedings, while common thistle and Veronica cut down the formality of the flowers, adding a contemporary touch to the arrangement. A pair of French-style balloon chairs covered in sultry velvet damask provide the perfect perch for the bride and groom.
