Tassels have been popping up everywhere – from handbags to shoes – and if you’re like me, you’re probably completely obsessed with this trend. So when this modern Chicago inspiration session captured by Natalie Probst Photography came across my desk, I couldn’t wait to share it with you all! The Bride’s loose up do by Gia Tovar showcased her DIY black tassel earrings, which added just the right amount of oomph to the romantic, off-the-shoulder Samantha Sleeper gown. Get scrolling to check out all the tassels, which also make an appearance on the back of the reception chairs – the coolest detail maybe ever!
From Natalie Probst Photography… Who says tassels are just a fashion accessory? Tassels are popping up everywhere, from earrings to hem lines, and there’s no sign of this trend slowing down soon. We’re excited to share some chic, modern wedding inspiration with you that includes this year’s hottest accessory.
The Ambassador Chicago is a favorite destination for couples who appreciate and know good design. From the rooftop views of the Ava terrace to its modern, crisp white suites, The Ambassador Chicago is the perfect place for a rooftop wedding, rehearsal dinner, or getting ready location. Envision your guests dining with the Chicago skyline as the backdrop, watching the colors change on the buildings as the sun goes down. And at night, imagine the twinkle of the city lights bringing a romantic glow to your evening. A first dance 17 floors up? Epic.
This Rory gown by Samantha Sleeper is the perfect example of relaxed elegance, with its off the shoulder draping and front button detailing. Paired with long black tassel earrings (a 60 second DIY project!) this look is perfect for the bold Bride with personal style to spare. As for him, we think a Groom can never go wrong in a white dinner jacket and black bow tie. A look that will never go out of style!
Elysia Root is a genius when it comes to desserts, and this 5-tier white wedding cake with geode rock detailing brought a modern twist to the traditional wedding cake. Magnificent Milestones provided the classic, monochromatic paper goods, and May Floral never disappoints, providing the gorgeous floral centerpiece and bridal bouquet. Last but not least, Gia Tovar and Joanna B Artistry brought our vision of a chic, relaxed Bride to life through hair and makeup. Thank you to this amazing vendor team!
