Kentucky Derby Inspired Wedding

Are you still in need of some gorgeous southern inspiration for your big day? Thanks to Finnegan Photography, we’ve got this delightfully-southern inspiration on the blog today, complete with those larger-than-life bows and hats, a dapper gentleman, and florals out of this world from Joann’s Florist. Carlson Premier Events pulled together a shoot that called upon equestrian elegance and loveliness of My Fair Lady. The blending of the two themes created a final product so darling! What’s captivated me most are the centerpieces and how the entire space was dolled up in magnificent blooms, perfectly matching the prim and properness of the whole shoot.

From the photographer, Finnegan Photography: This Savannah, Georgia vintage wedding is all about style and grace as the details come together to become an event filled with inspiration of Kentucky Derby elegance. The Barn at Red Gate Farms is the perfect venue to host a southern engagement. Vintage pieces draped in gold and pink accents compliment the classic look of black and white that could create a timeless set of wedding portraits. All of the beautiful details and wardrobe reflect an inspired “My Fair Lady” look, and the gorgeous Savannah backdrop makes for the perfect southern affair.

I think one of my most favorite design elements to have been introduced within the last couple of years are the floral table runners. They add such a great level of drama to your reception tables and they’re so customizable! Just select your greenery and leave as is for a very organic feel, or dot them with the blooms of your choice. Roses work great, and so do peonies! Plus, they are great DIY projects to tackle and are just as beautiful as centerpieces stationed in vases.
