Windswept Bridal Editorial on the Beach

Beach weddings often take up space in my daydreams, and they just as often happen to look awfully similar to today’s shoot from Michelle Roller Photography, Sandcastle Celebrations, and Eden Floral Design. The entire scene was put together with a palette of grays, blues, and metallic accents in gold and brass, keeping everything perfectly tied to the waterside theme.

From the photographer, Michelle Roller Photography: It all started with a gown. A stunning hand stitched bridal gown from Russia created by Milamira Bridal. This beautiful windswept inspiration shoot was a collaboration of talented vendors. Michelle Roller Photography captured all the sensational details. Janet Tacy of Sandcastle Celebrations utilized an array of natural elements to create a stunning backdrop that showcased the windswept inspiration. Drawing from a palette of soft grays and blues with brass and gold accents, the stylist sought to capture the natural beauty of California’s central coast.

A billowing canopy structure constructed with birch branches echoed the sails of a sailboat. A dining table set with gold rim china and glass ware from Italy nestled elegantly within this natural structure. The napkins and cheese cloth table runner were dip dyed to reflect the ombre colors of the sea. Vintage trunks, wooden crates and lanterns anchored these stylistic elements. The floral designs created by Eden Floral utilized both native plants and conventionally grown florals. A vintage brass urn used for the centerpiece showcased the delicate florals. The bridal bouquet accented the exquisite fabric of the bridal gown. The torn and trailing fabric tied to the bouquet complemented the gown. Paper Cake Events created a gorgeous cake that of reflected the waves of the sea. Edible gold foil was used to decorate both the cake and the delicious French macaroons. The invitation suite created by Morningside Paper Studio utilized a stunning mix of watercolors and gold foil. The suite perfectly captured every element of the inspiration. What started as a beautiful hand-made gown coalesced into an exciting bridal inspiration shoot showcasing many talented vendors from California’s Central Coast.
