Bursting with florals and fashion, this inspiration shoot is simply giving us LIFE! Gorgeous stems dance in the background as our high-fashion bride, wrapped in organza, enjoys one of the most fabulous luncheons we've ever set eyes on. Joyful shades of pink, orange, and yellow play with understated neutrals, and natural textures, like silk and linen-everything is so pretty, you can't help but smile!

An unconventional take on an autumn wedding, to say the least, Uavhona Thenga designed this fun inspiration shoot and brought together this whimsical team of creatives. These photos by Clareece Smit Photography are nothing short of a high-fashion editorial! Botanicas really set the mood with a wild combination of flowers and displays to bring us over-the-top installations and a magical tablescape fit for Alice in Wonderland! The bright open interior of Doppio Zero Castle Gate fit this inspiration shoot beautifully. All the images are in the full gallery, so be sure to click through and read on to hear more from planner, Uavhona Thenga of Marble and Mauve.

OUR KIND OF PLAYDATE

Floating pastel flowers: hydrangeas, tulips, and more

A playdate with creatives, where we shook off the summer and made way for Autumn-a season where every leaf is a flower! This editorial shoot took place at the fresh and newly opened, Doppio Zero Castle Gate, Pretoria. The canvas of the venue inspired us to explore contrasting color palettes and textures, which were elegantly displayed by stationary wizards, Creative Heroes.

DANCING FLORALS

Planned and designed by Marble & Mauve Weddings & Events, the tablescape was a combination of fine floral art and dancing stems beautifully arranged by the meticulous Johannes van Greunen from Botanicas-the perfect setting for a Vogue lunch with the girls.

BRINGING THE GLAMOUR TO LIFE

Even beautiful decor needs a beautiful face. To enhance this scene of splendor, the stunning Kearabilwe Tlhabane brought Vogue to life with warm, yet natural makeup, done by Elarte, and a Maralize Meeding one-shoulder gown added that heavenly touch. Every photo, beautifully captured by Clareece Smit Photography, left us with all the feels. Autumn bliss if you ask me.
