Summer Coastal Wedding Ideas

Vintage coastal vibes in Las Vegas? Absolutely! Check out this dreamy inspiration shoot from Kristen Marie Weddings + Portraits that is perfect for summer. You would never guess this beach reception took place in Las Vegas! The color palette of vibrant blues and creamy sands is perfect for any coastal theme. I’m personally loving the classic stripe linen that really lets all the bright florals pop!

This coastal, summer wedding inspiration shoot was such a joy to photograph. I absolutely love Reflection Bay—it’s one of our city’s hidden wedding gems and the type of place you would never expect to exist in Las Vegas. If a white sand beach, glowing sunset, luxury yacht, romantic florals, vintage hairstyle and classic red lip weren’t enough to make our little wedding hearts happy, we also had a wonderful surprise… right after we completed this shoot, it was announced that the Pantone 2020 Color of the Year was Classic Blue! While it was totally unintended, it just goes to show you that the design team was right on target with upcoming trends in our industry. This was such a creative way for me to start 2020 and I’m really proud of the work all of these very talented vendors put in. A chic, vintage-inspired coastal wedding in Las Vegas? Sure, why not!

Vibrant Greece Inspired Peach and Blue Wedding

Saying hello to color in this vibrant Greece inspired wedding inspiration from Always Andri captured by Maxeen Kim Photography! We love how this team took a fresh color palette of peach and blue, but still kept a soft and romantic feel. From the rich colored walls of the venue to the lush florals, this shoot is a color lover’s dream. Our favorite detail is the beautiful hand-painted ceramics. They add such a lovely whimsical touch to the tablescape!

When photographer Maxine Kim contacted me, wanting to create a bold and colourful fine art shoot titled ‘Hellenic Sky’ – inspired by Greece (where she lives) and the colours of Greek ceramics, I immediately fell in love with the concept. So often we see the pared back and understated side of fine art ideas. It really brought my creativity alive to plan and design a shoot with personality and a multicultural influence whilst keeping that fine art touch. With a love story in mind, of a Greek woman marrying a guy in the UK – wanting to enjoy the colours and tastes of home on her wedding day, I brought together a talented team of suppliers to make the vision a reality. I designed the tablescape to be a tactile celebration of colour and culture. Handmade ceramics by Studio HETHE. Blue glassware, candles, and accent linen. Gold cutlery and an abundance of flowers. The delicious sharing platters of food, provided by Smallpiece catering, appealed to my Greek roots. It was a feast for the senses – with a colourful array of Greek and Turkish flavours. Foodie heaven!

Eclectic Coastal Wedding Ideas

Get ready for fun coastal vibes with this lakeside wedding inspiration from Aspen Jean Planning! Captured by Michelle Joy Photography, this shoot blends eclectic chinoiserie printed china and potted plants with airy florals for a unique look. This vibe is perfect for a summer wedding, with Pantone’s color of the year, Classic Blue, looking oh so chic!

Our design inspiration was to merge the east coast look with the midwest setting. “And the two shall become one..”, was the inspiration for our concept. The setting of Crimson Lane is the epitome of the midwest, surrounded by rolling fields and abundant nature, yet this venue complimented the east coast vibes tastefully. We chose to incorporate multiple textures but still having minimal colors within our blue hues. The light colors and airy florals were the perfect palate for our couple, a midwest gal and her east coast lad. We aimed to recreate the feeling of the movie “The Notebook” which is why we chose to do sunset rowboat pictures.
