There was good motivation for this colorful wedding photography workshop. Looking to shake things up from the pastel and neutral weddings we see so often in Colorado and beyond, we decided to go big and bold for this styled shoot. This colorful wedding inspired shoot was day one of our first-ever workshop for wedding photographers. It was our first real workshop and it was fun.

Firstly, we love teaching and interacting with other wedding photographers. Whether they are from Colorado or across the country. Secondly, Getting to create stunning shoots (like this one) for the workshops is a wonderful added bonus. Ultimately this was a blast and can’t wait for more workshops soon.

Linen Inspiration

Ultimately, by taking inspiration from the bold colors of La Tavola‘s new linen patterns we created a rehearsal dinner theme for the shoot. Using this as a starting point everyone on the amazing vendor team was able to run wild with their inspiration. And add their own interpretation of bold and colorful to the design. As a result the components worked out and blended together quite well.

The wedding designer, Julie of Vieira Events described the overall aesthetic of the shoot best: “For this styled shoot, we sought to create a sophisticated, colorful, and playful ambiance. Something that one would want for a rehearsal dinner or engagement party. Reflective of two families and potentially cultures coming together to break bread.”

Ultimately the most important to this design concept was trying something new. Using pattern and color in a fresh way. This is more possible to do at wedding events like the rehearsal dinner. Linens go a long way for major design impact. Similarly, minimalist and modern flowers complete the look because they have such a large impact.
