Romantic Soft Mauve and Dusty Blue Wedding Styling

Soft mauve and dusty blue bring fairytale whimsical romance to life in this styled wedding shoot, created by Happily Ever Details and beautifully captured by Anna Perevertaylo Photography. The soft, romantic gestures go a long way, with candlelight, a stunning vineyard location and soft mauve, dusty blue, pink and white colour palette.

A pastel colour palette is often associated with spring or summer weddings. However, with the combination of gold candlesticks, autumn treats and a long-sleeved wedding dress, the romance continues into autumn and winter, so you can use these ideas for any season.

Talking of colours, soft mauve could well be the new blush. It’s subtle and definitely dreamy, and with its almost grey tones it’s the perfect pairing for dusty blue.

If you’re looking for dessert table ideas then the one featured in this shoot will wow you! Everything looks so delectable; from the cute cupcakes to the tempting doughnuts and the marbled wedding cake. It really is a table of treats, and with the beautiful styling creates a wonderful centrepiece.

Gorgeous lush florals and greenery also bring the romance to life. In addition to the abundance of fresh flowers there is also a fabulous large paper flower background in mauve and pale blue; imagine the photo opportunities with this!

These ideas are so delightful and the perfect choice for a modern, romantic wedding.

Claire Pettibone for Bella Belle Bridal Shoes

Two of my bridal loves are bridal shoes and Claire Pettibone wedding dresses and (I’m a self confessed shoeaholic!). So, I was excited to hear that Claire Pettibone has collaborated with occasion footwear brand Bella Belle to create this limited edition capsule bridal shoe collection.

Consisting of four bridal shoe styles, the collection fuses Claire Pettibone’s whimsical aesthetic into Bella Belle’s signature romantic designs.

Ethereal Styles

Bella Belle delivers fresh and feminine bridal shoes for romance and beauty seekers. This new collection incorporates the Claire Pettibone vintage style and bohemian touch which has made her a household name across the globe.

Handcrafted from silks and fine materials, the ethereal styles feature embroideries, French lace motifs and Guipure appliqué, and are available in pretty soft pastel colours.

Claire Pettibone and Bella Belle shoes told us about their collaboration…

“We invited Claire Pettibone to collaborate on this capsule collection as her designs embody Bella Belle’s spirit – thoughtful and exquisite. Her whimsical touch adds another dimension to our brand’s feminine DNA. Each design has that quintessential Pettibone touch and we enjoyed the creative process with her.” Bella Belle Shoes.

“I was beyond thrilled to collaborate with Bella Belle. My dresses are often paired with their designs and to have the chance to put my romantic sensibility to one of my favourite accessories was a dream come true! Many of the same elements that comprise my wedding gowns inspired this collection – details from nature with a touch of the whimsical.” Claire Pettibone, Designer

The Collection

The gorgeous styles in the new limited edition bridal shoe collection are…

Freya

A little ‘something blue’ for a romantic nod to tradition. The Freya bridal shoes make a delicate, romantic finishing touch with a double ankle strap, and tiny flower buds blooming on the heels. Silver threads intertwined with ivory and baby blue embroidery and a few dew-drops of clear sequins give just a tiny hint of shimmer.

Fabrics: Silk satin and mesh with embroidery and clear sequins with metallic thread

Colour: Ivory with blue and silver

Flora

Flora is a quintessential Claire Pettibone style; pale blush flowers with sage green and rose gold accents embroidered onto blush silk satin. A little vintage, a little whimsy, and all of nature’s beauty wrapped up into an utterly romantic statement piece.

Fabrics: Silk satin and mesh with embroidery and clear sequins with metallic thread

Colour: Blush with sage and rose gold

Giselle

A classic bridal pump featuring French embroidery patterns with a gorgeous scalloped edge to embellish the design. The removable silk ribbon bow is a nod the iconic ballerina and one of Claire Pettibone’s favourite elements. Brides can choose to customise the design with their own ribbon or heirloom piece.

Fabrics: Silk satin with embroidered tulle lace and silk ribbons

Colour: Ivory

Mariposa

Iridescent blooming vines stitched on the mesh upper, with Guipure lace butterflies (a Pettibone signature) landed to take a sip of nectar. At the back of the shoe two winged lovers have found each other, so when the heels are together they make a sweet pair. The Mariposa bridal shoes are available by special order, and as the butterflies are hand-tinted each pair is unique.

Fabrics: Silk satin and mesh with embroidery and Guipure lace appliqué

Colour: Ivory with iridescent and pastel embellishments
