Summer is usually a time where I am busy working on ‘on the day stationery’ such as menus, table plans and wedding signage, but because not much of this happened this summer, it meant that I had a bit more time to take part and collaborate in several stunning wedding styled shoots, which I’m extremely proud of.
So I was over the moon when I found out this ‘Black and White Luxe’ wedding styled shoot was going to be featured on Together Journal. I am huge fan of this trend setting magazine and wedding blog based in New Zealand – if you are looking for some serious modern and contemporary wedding inspiration, then TG is a must view.

Black and White Modern Luxe was planned by Hannah at Studio Porter and photographer Charlie at Westlake Photography and has a timeless and romantic feel reaching to modern couples looking for a hint of luxury while keeping in touch with elegance and minimalism.

Inspired by Black Tie and quotes from Coco Chanel, and being complete and utter romantics at heart, Hannah and Charlie wanted to create a beautiful love story; one filled with intimate moments, effortless details and modern textures and contrasts.

The wedding stationery colour palette was kept fairly monochrome, softened with neutral tones. The wedding invitation was a chic and minimal design, finished off with some script calligraphy, paired with a nude coloured RSVP and vellum ‘this is our love story’ note. The invitation suite can be bundled together to create a modern layered wedding stationery set.

I created a die cut arch shape wedding welcome sign, which offered a wow statement at the entrance to the venue. I then of course had to carry this shape over to matching cute black and white tags for the table scape.

I hope you love and find the shoot inspiring as much as I do.

Happy New Year to each and everyone of you. 2021 let’s make this a year to remember for weddings.

The amazing talented photographers then capture it all and share the pictures, for us to all to use for our portfolios.

The brief was to create a micro modern city wedding vibe, and boy we did not disappoint.

I designed a brand new wedding stationery suite, with the main focus of the invitation being modern typography, with a monochrome palette of blacks, whites and greys.

The Chestnut Grove created a dreamy grazing table, where our ‘Sweet Dreams are Made of Cheese’ signage looked incredible next to.
Our modern black and white welcome sign makes a bold statement also.

Late summer love in the city.
Balmy evenings with laid-back feasting.
Bold & bright mustard florals & summery yellows.
Modern, minimal, contemporary & playful, with a luxurious edge.

Our Elegant Type  was adapted to create this stunning contemporary wedding stationery collection that was clean and minimal, with white menus paired against a playful pop of mustard yellow place names and the typography continuing the modern, minimal aesthetic.

So I was over in the moon when I found out that the shoot, along with our wedding stationery, was to be featured in the pages of Vogue Japan! It literally is a dream come true, Vogue has been my no.1 fashion magazine for as long as I can remember and having worked in fashion design myself, I know how prestigious this feature is.

The brief was elegant boho, queen of the desert with camels. Vintage gold table decor, with a subdued oriental feel. Earthy tones, beiges, terracottas, with electric blue pop.

We provided Invitations, RSVP’s, Save the dates and place names on cotton rag hand torn paper, finished off with calligraphy and gold leafing elements. The menus and welcome signs had a subtle earthy watercolour background, again with a calligraphy font.

Charlotte, Roberta (photographer), and the rest of the team in Morocco created the most striking scene and captured it so sensationally, so if your a bride or groom in search of some dreamy Moroccan wedding inspiration, look no further!

Below are some images from the Vogue Japan feature, along with some more imagery provided by Roberta Facchini Photography, with all suppliers being credited at the bottom of this post.
