Still one of my absolute favourite looks for a wedding, is this one here from fabulous wedding photographer Elizabeth Messina‘s own wedding. I yearn to recreate this look someday.
Elizabeth had collected 30 chandeliers, old and new, over a long period of time and repaired each one of them to ensure that they would lightup on her wedding day. The chandeliers were given away to the closest friends and family – a beautiful token from a beautiful day. I am mesmerised by them right now – I can only imagine the magical atmosphere they created after sunset…
Runners were sewn from blue velvet, even the chair cushions were sewn for this purpose. The very personal bread was flewn in from a French bakery. I love the idea of guests breaking bread among themselves. The wine labels are made with Elizabeth’s own photographs.
