Autumn Inspired Elegance At A Vermont Manor
An old-world manor serves as inspiration for this elegant autumn styled shoot. Wink and Willow lead the creative vision of the day, with unexpected details and sophisticated touches. Handmade invitations by Emily Rose Ink drew directly from the look of the inn's wallpaper. A wildflower-filled ceremony arch, designed by Blomma Flicka, took life based on the venue's seasonal flowers in bloom. J. Harper Photography told the beautiful story of the day through their imagery. Check out the full gallery for all of the inspired romance.
From J. Harper Photography... The team was inspired by the old-world manor The Inn At Burklyn, that has been lovingly and exquisitely refurbished, we shot at. Its pastoral vibes are such a beautiful compliment to the lavish luxuries within its walls as well as our overall design intentions that include wistful, over-the-top romance.
We knew we wanted to see bountiful, seasonal floral installations in perhaps unexpected places; the side entrance was enchanting after its columns were draped in romantic, wildflowers. Likewise, the ceremony had to offer some wildness and we took inspiration directly from the gardens, including flowers that were blooming seasonally within the massive arch.
In the 1910s, the original owner of the property decorated his favorite niece's room with a beautiful, feminine wallpaper that was rich in traditional design including ribbons, columns, and bows. Over 100 years later, when the new owners began their renovations, rolls of this wallpaper were found in the home's massive safe. There wasn't enough to repaper the walls, so they had it framed and put it right back where it began: in the niece's bedroom, now a stunning bridal suite.
