Bold Red, Blue and Gold Eclectic Outdoor Park Wedding

From Love, Inc. Magazine: “A blend of concrete, wood and mixed metals star in today’s styled shoot, which was inspired by the very city in which it takes place — Detroit. In the heart of Motor City, local creatives brought this colorful and eclectic wedding inspiration shoot together at The Villages Bier & Weingarten, a beloved spot where friends gather over beer and wine on sunny weekends. The venue gives off charming backyard vibes, which is a perfect fit for an intimate affair celebrating two dashing grooms. To contrast against some of the industrial elements, bright beautiful florals were brought in, and for a unique ceremony backdrop, baby's breath was painted pink and blue and fastened to a circular arch.

We're particularly loving the bright hued tablescape with a crushed velvet tablecloth topped with wooden chargers and concrete vessels that are filled with bright blooms. And for a bit of sweetness, cotton candy added a fun element to the top of a textured pastel wedding cake, which the newlyweds enjoyed with tasty macarons and sips of champagne. Captured by Inner Circle Photography, this fun and colorful styled shoot is sure brightening our day!”

Fresh and Bright Coastal Watercolor Wedding on the Detroit River

From Storyboard Weddings:

“As a Black woman-owned event design business, it was important to Ryan Abney Event Design to curate a styled shoot that both highlighted BIPOC love, which is sadly underrepresented in the wedding media, as well as highlight the beauty of a micro wedding. This elegant coastal wedding inspiration included mostly female small business owners. The selected location was the iconic Roostertail located on the Detroit River showcasing panoramic waterfront views and a downtown skyline. The venue recently launched micro wedding packages and RA Event Design was ready to style a unique micro-wedding at the venue with all social distancing measures and Covid protocols in place.”
