As today’s wedding inspiration shoot illustrates, a polo-club wedding can be both polished and preppy. But it can also dark, cool and romantic.
This shoot, beautifully photographed by Loren weddings and styled by Jenin Paradise from Planning for Paradise shows that elegance can have an edgy edge, with vintage gowns, striking accessories and black decor.
inspiration for hair and makeup is available. We love the short up-do with cool earring combination! This shoot is full of great ideas for your big day.
The lovely Jenin Paradise will tell you more about the idea behind the shoot.
The Shoot
Arranmore Farm and Polo Club is a unique outdoor venue because of its homestead elegance. This wedding inspiration was brought to life by the 300 acres of breathtaking land and the serene pond with weeping willows.
I wanted to create an old-school vintage Vogue look for my wedding, with dark tones to complement the changing seasons from autumn. I wanted to make the florals the focal point of the bouquet, instead of the usual warm colors that have been seen this season. I designed a bouquet with a bold and bright color palette, which was hand-tied using black lace.
The polo field was strategically decorated with a dark autumn-inspired tablescape, which is arguably the perfect shade of green. It featured modern-romantic stationery and bright floral touches. The wooden horse topper was the “icing” on the cake.
This shoot is absolutely stunning. From the delicate vintage lace gowns and romantic touches throughout to the one-of-a-kind, unique dresses, I fall in love every time I see it.
What colors! Did I not tell you that those earrings would look amazing with the swept-updo? The dresses are also stunning.
This look would be great for a winter wedding alternative.
Thank you to Loren weddings and Jenin Paradise from Planning for Paradise as well as the other talented Chicagoland vendors who shared their shoot.
