Modern Garden Wedding Inspiration

Emily Riggs Wedding Dress

On Monday, we shared a vibrant garden editorial feature + today we have yet another take on the classic idea of a garden wedding celebration, but this one has a stunning, modern twist. The images, by Taralynn Lawton, were taken at the Film & Flora workshop hosted by Michael Radford and Tinge Floral at the gorgeous Rose Story Farm near Santa Barbara, California.

It’s easy to get lost in this dreamy color palette of blush, lavender, garden greens, soft golds, and steely blues – topped off with some gorgeous Southern California light! The florals were beyond, beyond, and the modern feel comes through via simplistic styling + simple photo compositions. The setting is at once simple, elegant, and completely current which was a perfect way to highlight the lush garden-inspired floral design!
