French flower market

From Faith Roper Photography: This styled shoot is an intimate wedding with a French flower market meets bistro inspiration. Kim Starr Wise did a fantastic job with the florals! Our shoot featured a large ceremony floral installation around the iconic fireplace at Il Mercato. The New Orleans venue’s courtyard setting went perfectly with the French theme.

Inspired style

Chasing Wang designed a beautiful cake with delicate floral details. A flower bar set on a vintage dresser and a bistro-inspired sweetheart table finished off the theme. The bridal gown by Jenny Yoo featured gorgeous lace sleeves and a button back. We also had bridesmaids in (two coordinating but different) Jenny Yoo gowns. There are some great hair and makeup inspiration in both the bride and bridesmaids! Our models are a real newlywed couple. They were so in love and a true joy to photograph!
