Now that it’s officially summertime, we are all about bright colors and eclectic themes. Such is the case in this beautiful southern summer wedding in Atlanta featuring our Charcoal Velvet and Silver Metallic Forest linens! The bright flowers, dark linens, and pastel & gold accents, along with the beautiful and angelic ballerina bride have us absolutely in love with this magical love affair.

The details are stunning too, with satin laces tied through the chairs emulating the ribbons of a ballet slipper tying to the ballerina’s leg. The lightness and weightlessness of the dancer is represented as a delicate feather placecard on the table. Swirls on the cake represent the poetic and organic path of the dancer. Don’t miss all the details below!

Photographers note,

“At 18, I stood at the bottom of the massive marble steps inside the vast Louvre Museum in Paris gazing up at a grand goddess. The first time you experience this work, which stands erect, almost like a guardian over this French fortress of art, it is unforgettable. The Winged Victory of Samothrace is a powerful piece.

The way the smooth soft lines of the sculpture’s tunic fall over the rough stone of the body and float back effortlessly is transcendental. With these contrasting elements of hard and soft, this piece purely defies nature. Or so I once thought.

Now it’s clearer to me that this work actually defines nature. In the same way running water flows gently over coarse stones, curving and shaping them, this 2nd century B. C. piece was formed with details that are both opposing and edifying.

When you find your someone, the mystery of love seems to work in a similar fashion. Separately, you’re simple elements, each distinct and defined in your own way. Together, you’re a new outrivaling force with a whole greater than the sum of your combined parts—a victory in love.” – Erin of Tin Can Photography
