This month’s color story features a spectrum of purples and greys.

Step into our ‘secret garden’ – an enchanting and intimate setting where romance blossoms and floral beauty abounds!  Welcome to Eclatante’s November fantasy ceremony where the colors of silver, purples and grey illustrate an ethereal story on the grounds of the Winterthur Museum and Country Estate in Winterthur, Delaware.

Our friend and photographer Marie Labbancz beautifully captures the stunning radiance and elegance of this romantic setting!

To set the stage for romance, a platform was created to line the aisle with purple vases from the Eclatante Boutique filled with a cloud of purple hydrangea by Beautiful Blooms.

At the base of the arrangements, Beautiful Blooms placed silver mercury votives and candleholders of different sizes then covered the base with lavender rose petals for even more ambiance!

This fabulous archway was enhanced with sheer grey fabric with rose petals applied to it!

Our gorgeous bride carried a bouquet created from silver grey brunia berries, dusty miller and magnificent purple hydrangea.

The groom’s boutonniere is made from a plum calla lily with a silver grey brunia berry detail to look like buttons.

This amazing bridal gown provided by the Gabriella New York Bridal Salon is reminiscent of the vintage details that women wore in the 30’s and 40’s. The designer is Matthew Christopher.  The style may be formal but placing this dress in such an ethereal setting provided the contrast required to bring all of the elements together.

Claudia Seyler of Claudia Seyler Hair and Makeup styled the top of the bride’s hair to complement the era of the gown.  The bottom part of her hair was left down to add a delicate flow just right for this garden setting!

We’re getting in the holiday spirit for our December Color Story!  Stay tuned!
