Double Styled Shoot

We are AMPED about sharing this gorgeous styled shoot with you guys. This day was so fun and so special- and it led to some incredible shots at the venue. The incredible photography couple/ team, Luisa and Douglas (they did our amazing staff photos!), coordinated a really amazing team of vendors came out and created two separate themes that really took our breath away! You are going to love how the venue was transformed throughout the day!

 

Charming and Elegant

The first look of the day is this amazing “Charming and Elegant” theme. This one is so fun, flirty and whimsical. Our stunning bride for this shoot got to wear the most fun dress, which really was a showstopper. The color that her dress and the groom’s suit had, brought so much life in and really tied everything together. Every detail shows off how fun and colorful you can get with your wedding, and still have it be elegant.

 

Classic Black Tie

The second part of our day was a more traditional, and classic theme. Really beautiful and black tie, but just as fun and striking as the “Charming and Elegant” setup. There is a reason that “Classic Black Tie” has been around for so long. It is all around, so beautiful and timeless. It will really never go out of style!

 

Bonus! It doesn’t always happen this way, but we have some really fun shots from Behind The Scenes! We really can’t say enough about how hard the vendors that come to the Farmhouse work. Everyone comes in, and completely transforms the place, and we love to see how each wedding or styled shoot turns out. It is such a task to create one wedding day, let alone, doing two in one day. Our vendors really are magicians!

Something Blue Editorial | Styled Shoot

Today we have such an exciting shoot to share, that is a bit of a throwback for us! Over the past year (almost), we have gotten to work with some really amazing vendors and publications. And, we are SO thankful for that. This is a stunning styled shoot from an editoral that the “Something Blue Journal” (SBJ) in Dallas put together. We are in love with how the shoot turned out, and love that we get to share it with you.

Something Blue Journal Dallas

SBJ is a really cool publication that was created as a source of inspiration for brides, wedding planners and people who just love weddings. They do a really great magazine, that you can read online, where they show off some amazing vendors, and weddings, of all styles. We were, and still are, so thrilled that they asked us to be a part of issue 001! (We are featured throughout, but have an amazing 4 page spread on pages 32-35) Their founder/ editor has a background in weddings, so she really has seen it all. You will love flipping through the magazine!

 

The Vendors Showed Up

Our day with all of the amazing vendors could not have been better. Everyone that showed up was so talented and showed off their skills in the best way. It was so stinkin’ fun to see just how they transformed the venue, and created the wedding they all envisioned. If you follow our insta, you may even recognize some of the shots. We really are obsessed with them.

So What’s A Styled Shoot?

The First French Farmhouse Styled Shoot – November 9, 2019

The most common question I get asked from Brides & Friends and family that are not in the wedding Industry is “What are all these photos you are posting and are they just stock images from online?” The Answer is no, all photos have been taken on property at The French Farmhouse Venue from either a styled shoot or engagement shoot or my handy iphone for a quick shot. Being new to the wedding industry the first thing we started to hear about 24/7 was “styled shoots” and being from the sports world were that is unheard of  I had to figure out that these were all about! Once we started getting rolling, photographers and planners started reaching out to us to do one! Learning more and more these styled shoots are critical in the wedding industry! It is a chance for you to showcase what you bring to the table and team up with other vendors wanting to do the same thing!! Since the venue is still under construction this was so exciting because we get to give a visual to future bride and grooms and let them see what it would look like out here on the property even though the venue is not done yet! However, some of the photos are from inside the Inn which is finished and on property. The first step was to team up with an amazing set of vendors! Here is some photos from behind the scenes photos and shows a little of what all goes into a styled shoot and the vision behind it! So thankful for our first styled shoot to be done with these amazing vendors and we can’t wait to work with them in the future.

The beautiful bride and groom were the easy part as the Bride, Taylor and Myself are friends from high school. I attended Taylor and Caleb’s real wedding earlier in year and knew they would make the most beautiful couple. These columns will built into the Venue.

 

 

All hands on deck! Some behind the scenes action with hanging the beautiful chandelier up in the large oak tree!

 

 

This Mother-daughter duo brought the amazing rental pieces.

 

Co-Co Fleur decked out these columns with beautiful flowers!

 

 

Owner Steve was very busy all day helping make this vision come to life. 

 

 

Photographer Kylie McCarthy captured the beautiful images. 

 

Kyle From 33 Degrees Bar services made the drinks! 

 

 

Kylie perfected the shot of these specialty drinks!

 

 

Hair was done by Styled By Kayla and Make Up By Kassy Freeman.

 

Lots of moving pieces and we covered almost all of the 56 acres that The French Farmhouse Venue is on! 

 

 

A good pictures show casing the details of the vendors coming together – The Rentals & Design, the calligraphy on each plate and the floral’s making the perfect table!

 

The Cake was done By Sweet Memories Cakes and Catering.

 

All calligraphy was done by the fabulous Jess from Write This Way Calligraphy.

 

I even requested the names of the Bride and Groom on the invitation suite to be Steve and Michelle after the Owners as they just had their anniversary days before the shoot.

 

This is just a little sneak peak of all the hard work that goes into putting together a styled shoot. Thanks for following along!
