I was so excited when Atlanta photographer, Linda Kovtoun, contacted me to be a part of an inspiration shoot she was putting together. The theme was Autumn and the shoot was held at a historic home in Fayetteville, Georgia. A special version of my Autumn Floral invitation suite was featured in the shoot and it couldn’t have been perfect. After all is said and done, here are the beautiful images from that day. What a great job Linda did capturing the peacefulness of the property and all the gorgeous elements of the shoot, and two thumbs up to the rest of the crew who did such a great job to help everything come together. Enjoy!

The first Magnolia Rouge Lifestyle issue is live today for viewing and boy is it a good one! I especially loved the section, Bohemia Soiree, photographed by Mariel Hannah. There is tons of inspiration from color to decor, and don’t get me started on the floral arrangements. A really beautiful shoot that I had to share. Enjoy!

Having a wedding on Halloween can be a lot of fun. But just because its a holiday you don’t have to necessarily keep it themed. Incorporating orange, black, and other autumn hues can be enough to keep the vibe alive. Be careful not to get too literal or it can turn out like a kids Halloween party and not a wedding.

Just don’t forget what the day means to you and try not to lose sight what is really important. Keep it simple and classy and everything should work out fine. Take cues from this well loved holiday and add fun elements through decor, text, and color and everything will fall into place. Creating a feeling of romance, whimsy, and mystery are perfect undertones for a spectacular event.

Here are some good examples I came across that should bring you inspiration, not just for a Halloween styled wedding but the fall season as well. Enjoy!
