Are you dreaming of an exotic elopement location but wishing it didn’t require traveling far and wide to get there? Then try bringing that magical destination romance to your hometown! Today’s shoot from Flora & Whim and Sarah Harris Photography with a knock-out gown from Lovely Bridal Shop is all the inspiration you’ll need – taking the romance of a Venetian gondola ride to the Pacific Northwest… it’s all just too dreamy for words…
I think we can all agree there is nothing quite so romantic as a gondola ride in the canals of Venice with one’s love. The picturesque scene is like something out of a black and white film, classic and idyllic.
Combine that very thing with the scenic Pacific Northwest and you have the most incredible destination for an elopement. The romance of a european affair with all the cozy feelings of being close to home – it’s truly a way to get the best of both worlds.
The beauty of the PNW waters, soft textures, patterned linens from BBJ Linen, gold details paired with a blush pink and soft blue color palette designed by Flora and Whim, and romantic florals also by Flora and Whim were the inspiration behind this styled elopement.
