The CoVid creative slump was real. Creative beauty trapped in houses all over the world. Vendors were itching to create beauty and to share their talent. This transformed our shoot from the original idea of an intimate, summer night dream to a vendor-filled tea party fit for a queen. An incredible floral installation, woven with strands of carnations, palms and fabric strips, suspended above the table, matching the ceremony altar and the invitation suite. Velvet couches provided elegant seating outside of a quaint coffee trolley; morning mimosas with poolside lounging in bridesmaids’ robes; custom veil, fabulous earrings and embroidery hoops; the perfectly unique and brilliantly fun elements made this unparalleled shoot truly feel like an intimate wedding day. The details and brilliance were captured by Sarah Tau Photography and co-shot by Julia Akiko Photography.
