Featured on Wedding Chicks :: Fashion Inspired Wedding with Jasmine Star

As with any design, my heart and soul is poured into it. I played around with inspiration that surrounds me and collaborated with some of the finest in the wedding industry to bring it all together. So, when it was time to come up with some fun ideas for a photo shoot - I turned to a photographer who I knew would capture my vision and bring it to life... Jasmine Star.

A special thank you to the amazing ladies at Wedding Chicks for the feature!



This shoot is very special to me because it was very personal. It is a reflection of who I am. I think every wedding should tell a story and take you on a journey. Allison, from The Innovation Companies, was a huge inspiration in helping me share the bigger picture. When we met to discuss invitation styles and concepts, it was more than talking about colors and fonts. She wanted to know about me. Allison is beyond fun and fabulous when she is with clients. She is an amazing listener and designer. She knows how to ask all the right questions. From selecting the venue to the dress you have to question yourself and ask "What does it mean to me?" It will help pull the overall concept together. I believe that everything we do in life has a story behind it. While working with Allison, she made it so fun to brainstorm all these ideas that I had and asked me "Tell me a little about yourself and what is important to you?" To read more about it, visit Allison's blog.

While working on floral concepts & designs, I got in touch with the ever-so-charming Carissa from JL Designs to complete the vibe of urban chic. Her creative style is never overdone and far from boring. She is brilliant in her approach and keeps everything fresh and modern...not to mention - GORGEOUS!

What can I say? Melody from Sweet and Saucy Shop shop did it again. This cake was all about being fashion forward...and I LOVED IT! Her decadent confections take me to heaven and make me craving her pumpkin cupcakes everyday and twice on Sundays. ;o)

To all that helped make this vision come to life - Thank you from the bottom of my ♥!
