Wedding Inspo - an Otherworldly New Orleans Wedding at Seraphim House

Even though this incredible New Orleans day was only a few months ago, we still feel completely transported to another time period surrounded by some of the most quintessential Nola details. We’re forever imagining our next getaway to The Big Easy and with just one glance at this shoot, its not hard to see why we’re so obsessed with this magically iconic city.

This gorgeous, show-stopping day was created by none other than design queen, Traveling Weddings with Taylor, who brought together that modern elegance we know and adore with some truly otherworldly details. From that UNREAL bridal gown by Barbara Kovchok to the incredibly talented Kinfolk Brass Band to the sheer brilliance of the historic Seraphim House right off of The French Quarter, this Nola day has us daydreaming time and time again.

We’re manifesting another visit to New Orleans and all of this glorious beauty, but until our next Nola adventure, you can find us here drooling over this November afternoon.

Wedding Inspo - Winter Weddings + Elopements

The temperature might be getting more and more chilly, but we know that winter weddings and elopements always bring the heat. Even though we don’t capture a ton of cold weather celebrations, the ones that we get to be a part of are so incredibly divine.

Winter nuptials are not only insanely beautiful, they’re also deeply serene. From the cozy, romantic little moments to the way this time of year just ushers in those quiet, intimate gatherings, weddings in the coldest part of the year are beyond enchanting.

Keeping our fingers crossed for even more of these magical days in the future, we’re forever in love with celebrations of love in the middle of winter.

Michael + Anna, a Moody Winter Elopement at The Seraphim House New Orleans

This November would took a quick trip down south to New Orleans for a few days of absolute HEAVEN. We were treated to the most divine winter styled elopement at The Seraphim House and dang was it everything we could’ve wish for and more.

On this insanely pretty day in The Big Easy, we were treated to a true feast for the eyes at the beautiful, historic Seraphim House. This tiny gem of a venue was first built in the 1860’s and after being restored from 2012 to 2015, Seraphim House is now more stunning than ever. For this incredible day, our sweet friend Taylor of Traveling Weddings with Taylor put together a styled elopement beyond our wildest dreams. Stunning bride Anna wore the most gorgeous Rita Vinieris gown while her groom Michael complemented her angelic look perfectly with a red, velvet tux from Don Morphy. For the the most divine florals, Louisiana florist Violetta’s created not only the perfect moody bouquet, but also a beyond epic indoor floral arch. To top it off, Papier Handmade came through with a romantic hand-lettering adorned invitation suite.

This dreamy afternoon in Nola sparked our imaginations for all the moody, fairytale inspired nuptials. We’re here for all those stunning fantasy celebrations!!!
