Red, White, and Blue
Patriotism isn’t something that only arrives a few times a year. It is woven into each American that is grateful for their freedoms. Holidays however, are a great reminder of the sacrifices made. Something about red, white, and blue, and our American flag conjures up thoughts of family and celebration. I often forget the primary colors when weddings are discussed. Most would say they are not romantic… I beg to differ.
I had the opportunity to create a styled photoshoot, along with an incredible cast of professionals, for one of THE most amazing photographers, MIKE COLÓN. The inspiration board was created by Kat Harris and we ran with her vision of Americana. Designer Specialty Linens created, out of many patterns, the beautiful linens that adorned the tables and chairs. Not to mention pillows! French Buckets as usual exceeded expectations bringing in pops of color, wildflowers and antique accents. Touches of old fashioned paper from Typeologie and Co, and of course Jay’s fabulous food. Gorgeous Caramel Apples and Patriotic Pies accented by our Wedded Bliss cocktail dressed with a cherry. Notice we didn’t stop with the table, we also created a picnic, incorporating all of those traditional favorites, like watermelon, Coke and Kobe Beef Sliders.
Okay, enough talking… if Mike’s photo’s don’t get you to stand up and sing God Bless America, I don’t know what will. I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THESE PHOTOS. Happy day after Fourth of July! ENJOY!
Thank you to everyone involved. It was such an amazing shoot. If you want to see more. Check out yesterday’s feature on Style Me Pretty.
