Valentine’s Wedding Styled Shoot

Happy Valentine’s Day! I just had to pop in on this Sunday to share this lovely Valentine’s wedding inspired shoot with you. I created this Valentine’s wedding styled shoot as a party for The Charleston Blog Society. I just love Valentine’s Day and all of the girly colors and details this holiday entails. I wanted to create a Valentine’s party that was fun, girly, and most of all something the bloggers hadn’t seen before. There’s nothing like creating a beautiful room for a styled shoot and then getting to enjoy all of the decor after! If you’re looking for more Valentine’s inspiration make sure to see our DIY conversation heart makeup bags here! The Gadsden House provided the ideal backdrop for this Valentine’s wedding inspiration. With it’s French blue walls and gold accents, it is one of the most elegant spaces in Charleston. The Silver Starfish made all of my heart shaped dreams come true with a paper suite that was to die for! With watercolor pink and orange swirls, heart shaped paper and modern calligraphy, the stationery suite they created would be perfect for a wedding or bridal brunch.A rustic farm table and gold flatware from EventHaus were the perfect compliment to the space. I decorated the table with ombre roses and a DIY XOXO table runner I created using white paint and kraft paper. By keeping the florals simple and sticking to just roses the other decor elements could really shine. Swank Desserts, One Hope Wine and, The Cocktail Bandits provided red and pink snacks and sips for the bloggers to enjoy.
