Chic & Cheerful Arkansas Love Shoot
Are you getting married at a rustic venue? Don’t feel like you have to stick to a woodsy color scheme to fit in with the locale– brightening up your color palette will enhance the overall aesthetic of your venue. Transport a tropical atmosphere to even the most pastoral location for a wedding that is chic, cheerful, and oh-so-you! I love this inspiration shoot by Melissa McCrotty Photography at the Twin Oaks Ranch in Arkansas; the combination of bright colors, luscious floral design, and unexpected details (check out this fabulous dress!) creates a wedding that transcends space and season.



Tell your hubs-to-be to embrace bright colors– yes, even pink! Using pinks, yellows, and oranges at an uber-rustic venue evens out the feminine and masculine qualities of each.




I’d love to see this groom in a gray three-piece suit (although it was wildly popular this year, it’s such a classic, timeless look!) or a dark, slim-fit suit. Both would go just as well with this color palette!

Isn’t this dress incredible? What a fun way to bring an explosion of color into your wedding day look!

A beautiful ribbon display is a wedding gamechanger– use this as a whimsical ceremony backdrop or a fun photobooth background!

> Thanks for letting me know Trinity! I’m so sorry for leaving you out; for some reason, the cake credit was not included in the vendor write-up I was sent, so that’s why it went uncredited! Thank you for catching that!!
