We're sharing a whimsical and breath-taking styled shoot today, by a group of amazing local wedding suppliers in the KZN area. In line with Pantone's Colour of the Year, radiant orchird (see our inspiration board on it
here), the colour palette of this shoot was deep purples and vibrant pinks, with gorgeous metallic accents of copper, bronze and gold.
When the photographer of this styled shoot,
Kate Van Onselen, submitted this collection of images to us, we were so excited to share it with our readers! When a group of creatives can come together to do a styled shoot, it allows them the freedom to push the boundaries a little, and to put together something different than a standard pretty wedding. We love all the trends coming through in this shoot, from the use of the
floral crown, to the
metallics, to the
predicted colour trend of 2014, and to the
jewel tones colour palette. Held at the beautiful Old Halliwell Country Inn, and with the bright and mix-matched decor, flowers and styling from Kim at
Natural Nostalgia, we loved this shoot that they've name "Bohemian Beatnik".
