Black + White Vintage Rustic Charm

We were thrilled to produce one of our first Styled Shoots to showcase not only our vintage inspired props and creative direction for event styling but also to collaborate with other up‐and‐coming, talented industry professionals in Houston.

Take a look at our Black + White Vintage Meets Rustic Charm photo shoot. Don’t miss the rest of the details after these swoon-worthy images courtesy of Chelsea Davis Photography.

When we first met with photographer Chelsea Davis, we desired to capture a style that was not only beautiful, but was personal and adaptable. We decided to infuse a bit of rustic charm meets the beauty and timelessness of black & white. All the while, evoking some nostalgia through the use of vintage inspired props and wardrobe. Chelsea captured every little detail effortlessly.

7 Closets Vintage blew us out of the water with the addition of a breathtaking collection of a vintage wedding gown. With even more romance and lace reflected through the dress selection, the loveliness was amplified. The addition of the bride’s black sash and satin bowed heels, gives the perfect touch of black to the divine ivory gown. The groom sports a perfectly placed silver‐gray and black bow tie with a classic black tux. 

 Lulubean Designs took our inspiration for black and white vintage and created a wonderfully matched paper suite complete with silhouettes, the whimsical use of timeless fonts, the texture of kraft, and a Save the Date adorned with vintage book pages.  

We couldn’t have asked for more from the dessert goddesses at two bakeries, Cinderella Stories and Frosted Bakery, for their edible perfections. Drizzled in white chocolate, sprinkled with romance, offering punches of silver and golden hues, and the amazing silhouette cookies (Cinderella Stories), the petite sweets were scrumptiously executed. We used vintage books, linens, cake stands, and dome platters to arrange elegant cupcakes to create a table that truly says Love Is Sweet. 

The floral design, by Petals By Design, was stunning and simple through the use of single cut stems and arrangements that combined vintage book pages and jute twine with lovely white hydrangeas, baby’s breath, roses, and ranunculus. With timeless white milk glass and mason jar props from A Style Collective, the floral was a subtle display of rustic charm. We also crafted do‐ it‐yourself book page flowers to add to the bouquet and boutonnière to play up the use of these elements in the paper goods as well as the vintage books in the tablescape.

Additionally, A Style Collective provided custom sewn burlap silverware and napkin pouches at each place setting adorned with lace and a custom made burlap banner displaying ‘You & Me’. 

Lastly, the only thing these gorgeous models had to do was be themselves and let their natural beauty be captured in the glow of twilight.  Ashley Smart at Beautique Salon & Spa fixed Nichole’s hair into a delicate, feminine, perfection that was the icing on the cake for this shoot.
