With all of the postponements 2020 has brought, including The Jam Event and Modern Love Events, this team has been dying to get creative + play with this years’ trends. Jaime, the owner and creative of director of Wild Heart Events, came together with Jill, the mastermind behind Layered Vintage, to work with some high-impact color blocking + super unique textures and create the very first Modern Love Shootout!
If you’re not up to speed, the Modern Love Event is produced by a group of wedding professionals, offering interactive, Pinterest-worthy wedding experience for planning couples to draw inspiration from. Essentially, gathering all of the most talented people in the wedding industry + letting them fly free! But this time, with a twist…
Hosted by Luce Loft in San Diego, the Modern Love team shifted gears (partly because of COVID) and offered a shootout for local photographers + creatives {get the scoop on their next shootout at the bottom of the post!}. This comprehensive stylized photoshoot had next-level details, and incorporated our new favorite texture in styling: bubble wrap! With color, pattern, and texture on the forefront of the summer style, they brought in a fun, warm + sunny palette with mixed materials such as gingham and bubble wrap to level up their design game.
Let’s jump right into this colorfully modern wedding inspiration photographed by Sposto Photography:
Modern Love + Wedding Details
Glowing Bride in Golden Tulle
It’s not too surprising to see this bride completely GLOW in her chic, olive gown designed by Elizabeth Dye. The texture, structure + movement of this dress is completely mesmerizing.
This pink ombre bridal bouquet is the tip of the floral iceberg of magic to come from Layered Vintage. Scroll on for MORE blooms, MORE color + MORE creativity!
Colorful Wedding Ceremony Backdrop
Juicy colors + modern shapes for this stunning ceremony setup! Jaime has been honing in her woodworking skills + built the ceremony backdrop as a summery play on plaid that Jill adorned with an ombre of florals in color-blocked assortments – complete with marigold + foraged fennel pods (sprayed pink!!) down the aisle. And that golden tulle on Elizabeth Dye ‘Opuntia’ gown is the perfect contrast needed to make the bride pop against the setting.
Velvety Modern Lounge Seating
The colors of this lounge seating from Adore Folklore are out-of-this-world-beautiful….especially against the cool, textured wall at Luce Loft. Notice the green to mauve color blocking?
The walls at this venue – just built-in greatness! Luce Loft in San Diego is open for bookings and has plenty of availability, so drop them a line if you’re in the market for a wedding 🙂
High-Impact Color Blocking with Florals
Can you handle this modern romance?! Obsessed with these lighting installations from Adore Folklore and, of course, the corresponding hanging carnations are lovely, lovely, lovely!
Specialty Cocktails + Deconstructed Flat Lays
Nearly too beautiful to drink are these cocktails from Snake Oil Cocktail with their elevated cocktail graffiti! And talk about Insta-worthy…you can put your monogram, artistic design or even your own face on top of a farm fresh, delicious cocktail (the secret is egg whites!).
Everything is just toooo pretty to consume! These modern farm spread of delicious goods – so lovely + colorful! Miho Catering Co. is next level delicious eats.
Next Level Details + Pink Bubble Wrap!
More color blocking design details — a rusty pink ceremony tablescape!
So next level! These acrylic placements + menus from Velvet Fox Designs are incredibly thoughtful + stunning! Wow.
The pink bubble wrap runner is insane!! Next level creativity, and oh-so-much fun!
A Trio of Color-Blocked Cakes
Hey There Cupcake clearly brought it with this trio of modern, decadent beauty. These three cakes are texturally stunning in their own, unique ways. So much yum!
This recap video from SJ Videography captures all the movement + detail in such a chic way.
