The Guild Styled Shoot Featured on Wedding Ring Magazine

Tuesday, 8 November 2016




Social Media is a powerful tool no doubt.  One day as I was scrolling through my pages, I came across a venue I had not worked with prior.  Located right downtown Victoria, BC on Government Street in a stunning heritage building, it absolutely peeked my interest.  I was thinking "huh, I need to have a peek at this quaint venue option and take up an opportunity to view it."  I got into contact with Danielle, The Guild's event coordinator, whom is such an organized and lovely lady to speak with.  She took me through the venue and my mind raced with wedding madness!! All the while, Tam of Blue Lily Event Planning was in the midst of planning a styled shoot and was looking for a place to shoot it, so there we have it - another one planned!  This shoot was featured on Vancouver Islands own, Wedding Ring Magazine!   Well it was like magic and here's what the creative team came up with.  Have a peek.


Outlooks for Men and The Bride's Closet stopped us in our tracks with incredible attire! Navy Blue suit, yellow tie and the perfect pair of shoes! Lace gown, hmmm yes please! Paired with a pretty boutonniere, well let's just say, I loved it! 



Oh Bash Speciality - I love it when our flowers are photographed on your amazing rental pieces! Xo


The team collectively focused on brighter hues using blues, pinks, shots of yellows and lush greens to create a visual feast for the eyes.  Featured in this bouquet:  lemon balm, phlox, queen annes lace (grown direct from our private cutting gardens) and we ordered in stunning anemone, freesia, ranunculus, lisianthus, calla lily and I know a few other goodies were included as well.



Tickle tree Studio created a lovely paper suite for the shoot.  Clean, simple but visually interesting - classic! 


OK!  This blue couch steals my heart overtime we get to work with it.  It's been to quite a few locations and I simply cannot get enough of it.  Bash Speciality was the masterminds for our lounge area!  Needless to say it fit perfectly into The Guild's space and our theme.  


Of course, sometimes we get sooooo lucky and the working team gets spoiled with cake!  Never can refuse a creation from Schur to Please... beautiful and tasty! (Laura, when can you deliver another tasty treat .. hehe)



We also were lucky enough to receive some wicked decor pieces from Trend Decor.  We saw lots of geo shaped inspired weddings last year and they sure do bring a whole other level of awesome to any wedding decor.  Just a touch of modern is unique and lovely.  I specially love that owner, Danielle worked quite closely with a local designer to create so many amazing shapes!  Take a look at Trend if your looking for something unique and well trendy ;) 


Gorgeous head table garland!  Everyone loves a romantic garland - well we sure do!

We also had Evergreen & Bound Films create a little "behind the scenes" video and they captured the mood of the day perfectly.

Of course, there is a huge list of vendors whom came together for the love of creating!  None of this is possible with a group of outstanding individuals who are passionate about their business - cheers team. XO  I would advise checking their business' out and get wedding planning!
