Graceful Bridal Inspirations With European Flair

A century-old estate, a venerable family seal and precious heirlooms let us presume some graceful bridal inspirations with European flair.

To honor the beautiful, young bride, the historic Oakland House shines with renewed splendor, proudly displaying its antique furniture, well-tended gardens, and sumptuous gold.

Protected by imposing oaks, this property becomes a retreat for an intimate getaway. A party accompanied by the fragrant scent of fresh lavender and the architecture of an old world Europe.

„We were inspired by the varied tones and refreshingly pure energy found in the essence of lavender.“ event designer Lauren Field told us. Accents of soft hues of ivory, blush, beige and purple created the perfect composition of whimsical aged European beauty.“

The florists at Accents Floral Design took care of these colorful accents in the form of floral highlights and created small, fragrant works of art that decorated either the richly laid table, the elaborate cake or even the enchanting bride herself.

A jewel in itself was the impressive stationery of On Three Designs, which had the appearance of having lain in a dresser of the manor house for many years and to have waited only for the present day.

We are very excited and deeply impressed by the total work of art created here under the creative direction of Lauren Field and are immensely grateful that photographer Justine Wright shares these wonderful inspirations with us!
