Magical Styled Shoot at Forme Los Angeles

Magic was in the air at our most recent Forme shoot. Kate of Xo Kate Events and a team of talented vendors came together to execute an editorial styled shoot worthy of gracing the pages of any bridal magazine. With a soft color palette and earthen details, the team got to work inside The Gallery against Forme’s statement wall.

A wooden table from La Pinata Party was the canvas to be decorated with florals from Creative Light Design and tableware from Greystone Table. Arrangements filled with ivory, peach and tan flowers were placed in the middle and at the ends of the table. In between each floral filled vase stood quartz crystal towers and taupe candlesticks. Stone plates were topped with individual quarts crystals that had been handwritten on by Letter and Ink and velvet napkins were folded between dinner and charger plates. Once everything found its place, the tablescape looked like something out of a dream. The soft colors and subtle details complemented Forme’s space perfectly and even the model was wearing a dreamy dress.

Next, the table was removed and all the flowers were placed together creating an overgrown, wildflower-like floor install. The model changed into the most dramatic puff sleeve gown and posed directly in the middle of all the flowers - Magic. Pictures were taken by Chris J. Evans of the model in her Pronovias gown before ending the shoot with photos of the invitation suite.

The blush napkins used for the reception table vignette were repurposed as the backdrop for the invitation suite. Letter and Ink did a beautiful job with the stationery. Calligraphy, gold flake wax seal, silk ribbon, you name it, this invitation suite had it. Deep pink and green envelopes contrasted the light colors in the shoot, but continued the romantic vibe throughout.

A huge thank you to the below vendor team for choosing Forme to bring your unique vision to life. This editorial shoot was just recently featured in the California Wedding Day magazine, so be sure to pick up your copy and see more from the shoot in there!
