Romantic Pantone Colors of 2016 Winter Art Deco Wedding Inspiration


Designed by Erin Hansen Events & Designs and captured by Peterson Design & Photography, this breathtaking wintertime Art Deco themed shoot was inspired by the Pantone Colors of 2016: Rose Quartz, a soft ballerina pink, and Serenity, a delicate sky blue. We aimed to deliver inspiration for the couple who dreams of a romantic and cutting edge wedding with all the glamour of the 1920’s. We placed our shoot against the majestic architecture of the historic Vibiana of Downtown Los Angeles, with stately columns and ornate marble and tile work. 

The Rose Quartz and Serenity colors appear throughout in details such as the bride’s striking feather fan, lush pink roses, and blue hydrangeas. The opulent floral design by Empty Vase combined these soft Pantone pastels with cascades of white orchids and pops of deep burgundy to create the perfect winter palette. Elegant sage and dark blue furniture by Sweet Salvage Vintage Rentals produced a warm and lavish setting for cocktails, followed by dancing in the main hall to an antique Victrola. Dappsy Paper Moon Shoppe’s magnificent “Gatsby Moon” served as a gorgeous backdrop for our bride and groom’s romantic ceremony in the garden.  

Our bride wore a satin Maggie Sottero gown with intricate beading and a flowing tulle overlay. She looked ethereal in a cathedral-length veil by Malis Henderson and bejeweled light blue shoes by Bella Belle. Crowned with a sparkling headpiece by Bel Aire Bridal and pearl drop earrings by Nefertiti Jewelry, her look epitomized 1920’s sophistication. Her exquisite art deco “Florentina” ring by Brilliant Earth flawlessly completed the ensemble. We displayed it in an extravagant Mrs. Box, lined with sumptuous and shimmering pink velvet. 

The bride’s makeup included a subtle smoky-eye and soft pink cheeks and lips, and her lovely dark hair was arranged in a silky vintage updo. 

Our handsome groom donned a navy blue, windowpane suit by Combatant Gentlemen, an extremely stylish alternative to the classic black tuxedo. A vintage pocket watch and slicked-back hair perfectly complimented his dapper look, and a silver boutonniere pin by Doctor Gus gave an extra touch of sleekness.  

The table was set for two with satin napkins and antique glassware in pink and gold tones. Menu and name cards in an art deco motif by GoGoSnap!, and a sweet single peony at each place setting kept the look luxurious and romantic.



The stunning, three-tier cake was created by Mwokaji Cakery. Their design echoes the Vibiana’s regal marble walls, and gold geometric elements fit perfectly with the art deco theme. Completely dazzling and glamorous, this shoot sets the stage for the quintessential 1920’s wintertime celebration. There’s just so much to love here!

Gordon + Hank :: 4/8/23 :: Wedding in Pioneer Town

Image
G+H had the most magical day in the most magical of places— Rimrock Ranch in Pioneer Town, Yucca Valley! The weather was literally perfect and every detail was thoughtful and intentional and executed flawlessly by Katie at Best Day Ever Events! We started with the two grooms taking photo all over the property and even with one of the horses, Ranger. Next, it was time for guest arrival and ceremony where their guests were first greeted by singing from one of their favorite performers, Leslie Page. As the guests began to sample cocktails from Your Little Local and take their seats, each guest was given a red, woven bracelet. Once everyone was seated, the officiant Lori Kahn explained that the grooms wished their guests to infuse their love and positive energy into their bracelets and place them on their wrists. The two grooms walked down the aisle together, followed by some readings and personal vows. When the vows were concluded— Gordon had set up a surprise for Hank! When cued with the

Melissa & Peter :: 11-11-17 :: Wedding in Irvine

Melissa and Peter are such sweeties! We started out their warm sunny wedding day at the Embassy Suites in Santa Ana,  where Melissa got ready with her bridesmaids. After a few fun shots in their robes and everyone was dressed ready to go, Melissa's bestie helped her get into her gorgeous dress, veil and garter. Next, we headed to their venue, the Eureka Building in Irvine where  the bridal party took some photos, being careful to keep bride and groom separate from one another. We also did a first look with Melissa and her dad and a "not" first look with Melissa and Peter, both were so fun and sweet! After those portraits were done, it was ceremony time filled with a sweet and emotional first look, personal vows and three cord braiding ceremony.  Once these two were officially Mr. and Mrs. we spent some time doing family photos, bridal party photos and portraits of the newlyweds in the setting sun. Next it was time for the party to begin! The reception was full of fun deta
