Nordic style meets bohemian wedding trends
In Autumn 2019 we took our best bridal gear and went to a beautiful and serene lakeside location in Savonlinna, Eastern Finland. We all are big fans of the Finnish nature and wanted to celebrate the warm evenings with beautiful gowns, styling and cake.
Our inspiration was the autumnal color palette with grey, blue and straw. These elements can be seen all around the shoot.
If you are planning a late autumn wedding for 2020 the these are for sure going to your Pinterest board!
Rustic bouquet with dried flowers for lakeside wedding
The bouquet celebrates the late autumn with dried flowers and bleached greenery. Mostly made with nature’s flowers the bouquet combines poppy cores, yarrow and meadowsweet with bleached ruscus. The whole bouquet is tied together with generous amount of hand-dyed silk ribbon in honey color.
Natural and nautical wedding stationary
For this bridal shoot we wanted lakeside inspired wedding stationary – for us that meant soft blue with hint of golden sand and rope details. The paper is hand-dyed with ripped edges. When you have a statement paper you don’t need special illustration so we opted in for simple typography with calligraphic details. Notice how the info is tied together with white silk rope to give it sophisticated lakeside wedding vibe.
Soft and layered gown is a boho wedding classic
Relaxed and bohemian styles are in for nordic weddings which often have a little bit hygge in them. This layered wedding dress is Meira Wedding Gown from Iida’s collection for the Wedding Dress Designer of 2019 competition. Made with light swiss dot tulle Meira gown is perfect for an easy going wedding cebrated in the nature with friends.
Blueberries and fig decorate the seasonal wedding cake
We always love to go for the seasonal thing is our bridal shoots. The wedding cake is trendy and small. It’s a carrot cake filled and iced with creamcheese frosting and topped with salted caramel drip layer. The best cake decoration is something that you can eat so that’s why seasonal blueberries and figs are a perfect option. They also have lovely contrasting tones adding a little bit color to othervice soothing palette.
