The Greenhouse Effect.- Weddings Unveiled
May 13th
The Greenhouse Effect
Photographer Kristen Weaver sent us this stunning styled inspirational photo shoot entitled The Greenhouse Effect. A selection of fantastic Orlando, FL wedding professionals collaborated to style and produce this green wedding photo shoot, featuring spectacular details in a palette of earthy greens and browns combined with crisp white, as styled by April Dorsey of The D-Tales. Photographed on locaction at a hydroponic greenhouse on the roof of the Roper Garden Building, Lee Forrest Design used carnivorous plants in the florals in addition to moss, orchids, artichokes and kale. Don’t miss the cascading artichoke bouquet, the moss carpet or the million tabletop details, including jeweled tarantulas, porcelain cabbages, green glassware, bamboo-inspired china and wrought-iron flatware. We love the cake with airbrushed metallic detailing, accented by an artichoke, braided palm leaves and wiring created by Anna Cakes. To see more of The Greenhouse Effect, visit the Kristen Weaver blog for more images and a behind the scenes video shot by Cinematique Films.
