Zesty & Bright Citrus Wedding Inspiration

Lemon, grapefruit, yuzu, kumquat, tangelo, clementine…how many more delicious ways can I describe the scrummy colors in this citrus-inspired wedding shoot?

Photographed by Kristin La Voie, styled by 36th Street Events & brought to life by four talented Austin-area florists, this zesty and bright wedding editorial sets to inspire couples considering micro weddings. Keeping current event requirements in mind, showing off the outdoor spaces the newly opened venue, The Grand Lady.

And while the opening of this gorgeous Texas venue may have had a rocky start during these strange times, the styling & florals of this inspiration bring a cheery lightness to all the undoubtedly gorgeous events to come.

While, of course, I’m biased (after all, they were the colors of my own bouquet) I’m loving the popping, contrasts of purples, oranges, yellows & blues the florals – so juicy, and bright!

From The Grand Lady

Launching The Grand Lady during the Spring of 2020 has been a bit rocky, to say the least, but no better event displayed our commitment to bringing a new, unique, and joyful space to Austin for couples to celebrate than our June style shoot.

With the extraordinary Kristin La Voie behind the lens and the support of Jessika Knight and 36th Street Events, we were able to pull together a shoot that brought life to the property and gave vision to emerging optimism to the community of Austin wedding pros, committed to making the best of a difficult year.

Given the circumstances and challenges couples are facing amidst the pandemic, we featured the outdoor highlights of the property in hopes of inspiring couples to reimagine what their celebration could look like during these complicated times. With the ceremony lawn at the center of the property, we staged an intimate tent arrangement on the West side of the property. And countered that with an outdoor dining display, perfectly fit for a micro wedding, in the courtyard on the East side of the mansion.

In all three spaces, extraordinary local florists – Flora Fetish, The Farmer and I, Wildly Cultivated and Blumen Floral – created stunning cascades and arrangements full of energy and elegance. At the end of the day, the shoot was an affirmation of both the quality of Austin’s wedding pros, as well as their diligent optimism.
