Modern Red and Orange

Long before I ever started Snippet & Ink, I was drooling over the floral designs of Ariella Chezar, and the photography of Meg Smith, two of the most talented women out there. I can probably list about five people whose work inspired me to start this blog, and Ariella and Meg are two of them. So I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I was when they sent me several gorgeous and inspiring wedding shoots, and how honored I am to share them with you here on Snippet & Ink.

I’ll post a new one each week for the next several weeks, starting today with this fabulously modern tablescape. The contrast of hot red and orange against the stark white studio is such a sophisticated look – I can just imagine wedding guests coming in from the cold to find this burst of flame red and orange. I also love a bride in a chic white pantsuit.


Ariella used parrot tulips, ranuculus, nerines, clivia and Icelandic poppies in the bouquet and centerpieces.


Orange Chiavari chairs and other rentals from Classic Party Rentals.

If you are looking for an amazing floral and event designer, or an incredible photographer, you have to head over to Ariella Chezar‘s and Meg Smith‘s websites to see more of their work – but make sure you have some time, because it’s easy to spend hours browsing both of their portfolios…
