From Belinda Jean Photography… Having been intrigued by The Lodge at Blue Sky for its charming aesthetic, we sought to illustrate our editorial story amidst the splendor of the mountains. Ultimately, our focus was to capture the sensual love between an Old World bride and groom in an outdoor mountain setting perfect for a destination wedding, elopement or intimate wedding. The mountain setting created pure magic for this ‘Al Fresco’ dinner! The cake features glass flowers with a beautiful bronzy gold effect enhanced in beauty by the lovely glow of sunshine from behind the table.
The old world feel was subtly incorporated into the groom’s attire with a tweed suit, the perfect touch for brisk mountain fall air. The bride’s Leanne Marshall ceremony gown featured textured ivory silk organza with a draped bodice and off-shoulder puff sleeve. Full A-line skirt with a stunning side slit. This inspirational wedding shoot features an outfit change with more formal reception attire and the bride’s delicate and feminine dress with removable sleeves for bride’s looking for glam & grace.
The dreamy golden hour light was catching the details of the mountain wedding tablescape creating a lovely ambiance.The florals looming up onto the table linen was the perfect touch of beauty for the mountain feel. The invitation suite featured is the Fragonard Suite by Ink and Press Co. Inspired by Fragonard’s exuberance, frivolilty of the subject matter and his soft carefree settings to iconic to the French Rococo style we all adore. The custom gold foil rose’ bottle label was cut into the shape of the French inspired crest seen on the invitation suite and incorporated throughout the day-of elements. Such magic comes from cohesive details! The design elements created for the invitation suite were weaved throughout details like this French shaped bottle!
