Parisian Engagement Styled Shoot

I'm excited to be able to share the sweet Valentine's

styled shoot that Katie of Katie White Photography

& I pulled together a few weeks back.

It was published on Love and Lavender over the weekend

for Valentine's Day & I couldn't be more thrilled.

We originally planned to do a dramatic shoot in the snow,

with a long red gown, elegant hair & make-up…

Well, as you may know…

It's been sunny and in the 60's and 70's up here in the

Sierra foothills lately, so there was a change of plans.

We quickly shifted plans and created a sweet

French-inspired Valentines Proposal and Engagement Styled Shoot.

We’re lucky to live in such a picturesque town

so we chose the Broad Street Bistro and downtown Nevada City

as the backdrop for the shoot.

And how lucky were we that we got a 10 minute window for

a shot with the sweetest little vintage Riley Elf

that fit in just perfectly with our European theme!

Thanks to Erin Thiem of Outside Inn for making this happen.

The couple took a stroll about town to get an ice cream

from Treats where the sweet proposal took place.

They came back to the Bistro to celebrate with a champagne toast using our Depression Glass Coupes

& our Champagne Bucket in one of our Plant Stands.

The Alexa Cafe Table & Angelo Bistro Chairs were the

perfect backdrop for their engagement celebration.

The bistro table was complete with our

Mix-n-Match China, Silverware, Teacup & Saucers

and pretty floral hankies as napkins.

And look how sweet our Angelo Bistro Chairs look all dressed up!

 We also styled a dessert station with a simple backdrop of pretty pink tulips in Vintage Bottles and our Addison Vanity staged with an assortment of sweets.

Retro Pink Cake Stand set atop our Books.

The tulips in our Vintage Bottles hanging from twine

in front of our delicate backdrop was my favorite creation

for this shoot. It would look gorgeous behind a sweetheart table!! Check out our new  Sweetheart Table Packages.

What an amazing group of vendors came together

to make this sweet shoot a success.
