Modern rustic engagement party

 This engagement party shoot is the perfect mix of modern and rustic…I’m loving those pops of color against the wood!

a modern couple, a simple gathering of food enthusiasts, the perfect mix of industrial and cozy … just some of the inspiration behind this engagement-themed shoot. together with a creative team replete with letterpress, photography, and floral design specialists, we set out to showcase the restaurant’s unique interiors and restless attention to its dishes. an engagement party seemed to fit the bill in creating an intimate, yet stylish celebration …. custom letterpress featuring the couple’s story + menu, a couple DIY projects, one amazing floral + wood centerpiece, drool-worthy food + drinks, and voila!

I think it definitely takes a certain kind of person to get this, but hey, if we can spray paint toy animals as placecards, why not action figures as centerpieces??
