Glamorous Urban Wild Carrot STL Elopement Inspiration

August 17, 2021 | riley

There’s something about monochromatic color palettes that we find so enchanting. So it’s no wonder that we’re utterly obsessed with this Wild Carrot STL elopement inspiration shoot put together by Junebug member and planner Coda’s Events. From the exposed brick of the venue to the swoon-worthy florals from Rudy’s Flower Truck, every detail was carefully curated to create a day that was as industrial as it was luxurious.

Not only was the all-white decor showstopping, but the wedding fashion was next level too. The bride looked incredible in her Rebecca Schoneveld off-the-shoulder gown, complete with metallic detailing and a high slit. Meanwhile, the groom contrasted the brightness with his snazzy all-black The Suit Shop suit. The couple’s outfits created some beautiful dimension in the photos captured by Tammi Camp Photography.

When planning their wedding, Fernanda and Sebastian wanted their Mexican Hacienda wedding to be unique with an Italian vibe. Once they stepped foot in the Hacienda Santa Ana y Lobos, it was love at first sight. After seeing their photos, we get it. This stunning venue features cobblestone streets, strung lights, and open courtyards. To add to the romantic feel, floral designer Florklor Estudio added cascading pastel florals to the entire venue, including the fountain, a Piaggio ape car, the altar, and along the staircase.

After tying the knot with a unique candle lighting ceremony, the couple and their guests headed to their reception area for sunset drinks and dancing. We won’t spoil the rest of this Mexican Hacienda wedding, so keep scrolling to see photos captured by Junebug member MC Weddings.

Industrial And Organic Rust Color Palette Wedding Inspiration

August 15, 2021 | riley

Your color palette is one of the easiest ways to create a unique, one-of-a-kind wedding. We know that this isn’t an easy task, though–most color palettes have been done before. So when photographer and Junebug member Empiria Studios came together with planner De Vasco’s Daughters to plan this styled shoot, they knew they wanted to take the popular rust trend and showcase it in a way that’s never been seen before.

The Day Block Event Center–a downtown Minneapolis restaurant–served as the perfect venue for this metal-inspired shoot. With burnt orange, dark red, and light teal florals from Rose Botanical, the industrial space was transformed into a colorful, modern, and whimsical wonderland.

So whether you’re in the midst of the wedding planning process or you’re putting together your mood board to see what your wedding day style is, these photos are sure to inspire you to have fun with your decor and add some color to your special day!

Photographer Empiria Studios’ On The Rust Color Palette Wedding

In 2020, we saw “rust” as a wedding trend–though this just meant a burnt orange color palette. But rust is such a complex phenomenon! The oxidation of metal is a beautiful, organic process on heavy, industrial metals. And beyond just the orange color, rust truly features an array of blues and oranges and the transition between the two. It features textures so rough that you can feel them without physically touching them.

We wanted to feature this industrial yet organic dichotomy and the opposing colors coming together in an elevated way. Everything in this inspiration features the heavy texture of rusted metal and highlights the blue and orange colors in a rust palette.

The dress from designer Georgia Young features an entirely laser-cut material that looks like an exterior layer peeling away. The stationery has ripped and raw edges, custom-colored dyes, and rusted metal accents. Even the bride’s shoes show a natural gradient in tone from deep red to light tan!
