After a beach proposal in California, Danny and Shannon decided to head to the other side of the country for an earthy wedding surrounded by a forest. Full Moon Resort in Big Indian, New York offered a secluded space for their rustic day. Richly colored wild flowers, gold picture frames, and tons of candles created the prefect romantic ambiance for their chilly winter wedding. L&L Style Photo captured the cozy moments the couple shared on their big day!

The Couple:

Danny and Shannon

From the bride: When I began planning the decor and theme, I had so many ideas it was hard to narrow them down. In general, we wanted something rustic, soft and romantic, with handmade touches. My favorite color is blue and Danny’s is orange so we went with a fall palette that combined them both along with other complementary colors like cream and gold. For my dress, I wanted something classic but slightly vintage AND I wanted to be comfortable! It took me more than a few dress shopping outings before I found my dress and I couldn’t have been happier with how it all came together.

From the bride: During the ceremony we wanted to include our guests in a meaningful way so we asked them to give their own vows. Danny’s good friend and officiant called everyone up out of their seats and they enveloped us in the most amazing penguin love huddle to affirm their love and support for us and our marriage.

Alexandra and Nicholas’ Croatian wedding is the very definition of a breath of fresh air. The stunning couple said “I do” in an intimate outdoor ceremony where fresh lavender lined the rows of golden chairs. After tying the knot, the newlyweds and their wedding party explored Hvar a little, stopping along the way to bask in the bliss of the day while Lifestories Wedding snapped the most gorgeous portraits. The celebration concluded at Spanjola Fortress with cake and dancing, and everyone present could feel the love that night.

The Couple:

Alexandra and Nicholas

The Wedding:

Spanjola Fortress, Hvar, Croatia

The Inspiration: True to us. Elegant yet simple. We are intrigued by travel and cultures, so keeping the affair locally croatian yet with our style was important. I draw and designed my own dress, and found the amazing Lucia Rodriguez to bring it to life.

The Moments: The whole wedding was so magical. Hearing our parents speak at the reception was so special. And standing in front of my man at the altar was something else. It was like no one else of around, so incredibly in the moment of love.

The Recommendation: Anita, our wedding planner, was the keystone to the entire magical week. She never bothered us with stress even though on the day of the wedding there was a power out across the island! She is a humble, incredible woman. Our chef was out of this world, he was crafting the delicious cuisine weeks in advance, visiting near by islands, and his childhood village to collect the best possible produce. And finally our photographer Yann, he is the most relaxed, professional guy you could possibly want on your day. Overall our whole team that made the week possible was incredible, and my gratitude is huge for them. I only wish we could do it all again to work with these talented individuals.

Seattle-Fall-Engagement-Inspiration-Catie-Coyle-Photography-22

Grab your mug of apple cider and zip up your boots, because it’s time for a little fall engagement inspiration! This autumnal Seattle engagement shoot designed by Diana Thornton Events includes all of the best parts of the season, from a romantic color palette in shades of wine and plenty of leaves to a cozy picnic blanket for two and genuine laughter. Photographer Catie Coyle captured all of the curated details, though we’re especially loving the seasonal bouquet by Wild Carrot Design Studio and the invitation suite by Eleven and West!

From the photographer: The Pacific Northwest is such a beautiful place year round, but fall is especially gorgeous. My creative team and I put together a styled autumn engagement session to celebrate the changing of the seasons. We used rich burgundy tones for the flower arrangements and invitation suite and offset them with warm, creamy tones and celebrated outdoors with a fall-style picnic in Seattle.
