A Forest Dream: The Story of Nouvelle Ère

La Forêt Styled Shoot 2024

In the enchanted forest of La Forêt in Margaret River, a new era of romance was born. This styled editorial was a wildly romantic vision, a story told through artful details and botanical wonders, all brought to life by the creative direction of The Wedding Concept.

The scene, captured by Emma Macaulay Photography, was a breathtaking tableau of forest green, soft blush, and antique gold. Magnificent florals by The Flower Girl Perth seemed to grow from the earth itself, weaving a tapestry of colour and texture throughout the whimsical setting styled by An Ode to Styling.

The stationery from Felicitations was the heart of this botanical narrative. A hand-illustrated invitation suite set the stage for the magic to come. At the table, guests found exquisitely scalloped menus and custom die-cut place cards shaped like delicate swans and dragonflies, each piece an echo of the local flora. The layered, textured cardstock felt like a piece of the forest itself, a tangible memory of the enchanted day.

From a stunning champagne tower to the intricate details of the cake from Harlequin Dessert, every element was a testament to the power of creative collaboration. This was more than a photoshoot; it was an immersive fairytale, designed to inspire couples to find the magic in their own wildly romantic visions.

A wildly romantic vision nestled deep in the heart of nature, this editorial was a true celebration of artful detail and botanical storytelling. From couture-inspired invitations framed in delicate watercolour florals, to hand-cut menus and whimsical place cards featuring swans and dragonflies, every touch felt curated and intentional.
