-AS SEEN IN BRIDAL GUIDE MAGAZINE-
“We wanted to embrace light, airy, earthy details while adding a touch of whimsy and romance,” Heather says. “We loved creating a design that felt timeless, but still had modern touches,” says Heather Benge, designer, planner + founder, Styled Shoots Across America. “Sunstone Winery was the perfect location!”
"Sage-green accents helped weave our organic theme into the paper goods."
"An all-white cake with fresh fl orals was exactly what we envisioned for this design."
"Custom menus were the perfect fi nishing touch at each place setting."
"To highlight the beauty of Sunstone Winery, we created a ceremony setup accented with low fl orals and benches to allow the venue to shine."
The overall color palette was comprised of creamy neutrals, sage green accents and muted blush tones. "Whimsical florals were the star of our al fresco reception tablescape," Heather tells us. "Natural accents like woven chairs kept the overall reception design aligned with our organic aesthetic."
"Attention to detail was key: the smallest things helped bring everything together!"
Creamy white florals helped keep the mood feeling modern, bright and fresh.
"Personalized vow books are a trend we hope never goes out of style."
"A vintage rowboat made for the perfect cocktail bar moment!"
