-William Shakespeare

Carmen Santorelli Photography envisioned a bride longing for her love and for the sea. To flawlessly portray this exact feeling and emotion requires talent and a discerning eye for beauty! We are smitten with the use of the wild, loose organic florals by Plenty of Petals and of course the Watters top and custom tulle skirt that puts us in a dreamy state. We also must mention the most beautiful bespoke stationery and hand written calligraphy by Type & Title on a scarf, used as almost an ethereal 'aisle' for the bride to walk upon...

From Carmen: "We've been dreaming up this inspiration shoot based on the concept that the girl finds her love by the sea, and returns there every time to reconnect with her love. The main design element was the silk scarf on which Type & Title miraculously managed to write an Edgar Allan Poe poem. We feel like that would probably make for a wonderful gift that brides and grooms could gift each other, if they incorporated a personal quote, or something that's meaningful to them. To stay within the same sea theme, Type & Title also created a few lovely paper pieces, one of which features a quote from Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet". Plenty of Petals created the loveliest bouquet, with loose and flawy blooms, and Beauty by Melina brought it all together with an understated look, young and fresh."
