Tropical La Jolla Cove Beach Wedding Inspiration
La Jolla Cove has to be the perfect spot for beach wedding inspiration — we’re convinced of it after seeing this styled shoot from Hillary Muelleck Photography and Flowers by Hilary. The team kept things simple yet striking, with a color palette of pink, yellow, and teal popping out in all the right places.
From the photographer, Hillary Muelleck: Beach wedding inspirations almost always consist of sandy beaches, walking along the shoreline, and playing in the water. We wanted to inspire a new kind of beach wedding on the sunny bluffs of La Jolla, California. While taking inspiration from vintage fabrics, tropical elements, and a pastel color palette; we were able to put together a romantic and ethereal wedding design.
While brainstorming for this La Jolla shoot, Hilary Curtis from Flowers by Hilary wanted to create an asymmetrical bouquet with draping vintage ribbons along with a flower crown displaying vibrant tropical colors. She also incorporated a beautiful variety of flowers and tropical palms to add eye-catching detail to the shoot. In keeping with the simple vintage feel, we got brides dress from Gossamer Vintage. We loved the sheer silk that created the light and airy look we dreamed for our bride.
The details of the table setting were also very important to us and to the direct of the shoot. That’s why we collaborated with CC Vintage Rentals to bring in a couple stunning pieces from their warehouse. From the vintage furniture, assorted candlesticks, and gold utensils, our vision of a romantic and ethereal inspiration on the bluffs was coming together. For the final touch, we were happy to have Emmy from Hello Design Sugar create menus and an invitation suite using handwritten calligraphy and a soft pastel color palette. We loved the simplicity and airy feel that her designs brought in completing the look of this shoot.
