I’m totally in love with this fairy-tale wedding found on the blog Green Wedding Shoes and captured by the photographer Jessie Holloway. It features a wedding in Tennessee in a botanical garden (Knoxville Garden and Arboretum), arranged by Whimsical Gardens.
With a theme such as “Fairy Tale”, the main pitfall is, in my opinion, to go for a styling a bit too cheesy; in that wedding however, everything is absolutely tasteful and…magical!
I love how they combined perfectly the princess-like feel (the dresses, golden objects…) with the bewitching and more “rustic” magic of the woods.
The bride and her bridesmaids do look like graceful fairies in the groves and the decorative elements really tells a story: the giant open book, the chairs of all sorts of shapes and colours, the clocks and golden keys, etc…
This is another evidence that for a unique and splendid wedding, a wood or whimsical garden could be the only thing you need. First it has an atmosphere, a special light, and its own mysterious vibe. In addition trees always have a majestic aura and will allow you to take superb pictures. Hang golden clocks, masons jars, old keys or vintage frames, place upside down umbrellas or fairy lights and here you go, you will have created an enchanting fairy tale atmosphere…
