Pinstripes photoshoot for Wedding Guide Chicago

The inspiration for the look really started with the venue - Pinstripes being an Italian, bocce-themed venue started the journey into "Rustica Italiana".

"Rustic, but elegant" is a request I hear frequently from clients, who desire a more natural feel to their event, while maintaining a sophisticated look. To pull these two lines of thought together, I started with the organic-feeling manzanita trees and a vintage-inspired urn, with a soft patina. Next, I started thinking of a color palette evocative of an Italian Country landscape, and what came to mind immediately was the lush plum of eggplant, paired with those wonderful terrazzo shades and the natural grays of dried herbs, basil and oregano. The trees pulled in a little espresso brown and the custom candle shades added just a touch of rusty terra cotta.
