This enchanting, maximalist photoshoot drew its inspiration from the notes of Gucci perfume "Gorgeous" and the depths of love intertwined with whimsy. Marrying European charm with unexpected delights such as a dance of bee ornaments, monkey candles, and wildflowers, the shoot unfolded at The Ruins in Seattle, a timeless backdrop with the unpredictable allure of an unlisted speakeasy. Here, in this elegant, enchanted rendition of an old-world Alice in Wonderland, love intertwined with whimsy. The carefully selected palette of lavender, chartreuse, oranges, ivory, gold, and green highlighted the natural elements of the space and acted as a nod to an old-world Alice in Wonderland. Keep scrolling to see how this inspiration by Sweet and Soul Design unfolded through a blend of high fashion, flash, and film photography by Koral Bleu Photography.
Stationery by Mikayla Wilson of Montana Paper Co. featured formal light gray font on white stock paper that let the maximalist details shine. Mustard ribbon and purple accents were the perfect backdrop for this custom suite.
The bride Anna graced the scene in the ethereal Lela Rose - The Darlington gown by Nyanza Bridal, complemented by the groom's dignified white tuxedo, black bow tie, and black pants. The focal point, however, were the Sam Edelman Brit Kitten Heels in beautiful velvet. Glammed by Victoria completed the bride's look with the perfect natural glam.

Urszula, the visionary florist, overcame November's floral challenge to create a secret garden-like dream where blooms seem to grow both from the table. Fresh fruits—grapes, lemons, tomatoes, pomegranates—introduced a down-to-earth dimension, enhancing the sensory experience at the table. A patterned tablecloth from BBJ La Tavola defied tradition, modern gold silverware added a touch of contemporary elegance, and small white butterflies, discreetly scattered throughout the florals, introduced an element of delicate surprise.
Noble Event Rentals, with their offering of The Natural Bentwood Chair, infused the shoot's style with a timeless design and graceful curves, creating an atmosphere of refined elegance. This chair, with its inviting natural wood finish and ergonomic comfort, became more than just a seat; it became another design element that helped bring the overall layout together.
The handcrafted butterfly cake by Kenna Giuzio was a fusion of colors mirroring the shoot's bohemian palette.
