Romantic, elegant and beautifully captured by Kate Ignatowski, this stunning bridal session styled by Mandy Forlenza Sticos is image after image of pure perfection. Inspired by the Bride’s upcoming winery venue, every detail – from the gorgeous calligraphy by Fleur De Letters to the breathtaking blooms – is swoon-worthy and then some, and you can see them all here.
From Kate Ignatowski… This pretty bridal session was inspired by my real bride, Laura, who so graciously volunteered to model for us. Her wedding next month is at a winery, so Mandy, our stylist, had the idea of creating a Bordeaux inspired shoot with dark reds and enthusiasm for good wine. We kept the shoot simple with an emphasis on gorgeous bridal photos and added some perfectly styled details to complete the inspiration. Delicious cheese always accompanies wine so perfectly and organic, wood details were incorporated in the box of grapes and accenting the postcard from Bordeaux. Finally, my favorite, our hand drawn French card translates “Life is too short to drink cheap wine.”
