Inspired by the Ballet…

Posted on May 10th, 2012 by Kate. Filed under Wedding Inspiration.


What is it about the ballet, that is just so romantic, alluring and inspiring?  A group of wedding professionals in Virginia took the concept and ran with it to produce a poetic evening photoshoot at Mount Ida Farm.  Feminity and grace were juxtaposed against the rustic-luxe venue.  Billowing florals cascaded across the tabletops, exquisite calligraphy danced across the paper goods, and the shoot even featured dancer/models from the Richmond Ballet!  Enjoy reveling in these photos by Aaron Watson Photography.
