Dramatic wedding inspiration with red and pink roses

Sep 20, 2022 | Inspiration

Looking to make a dramatic style statement at your wedding? A striking color palette is the way to go, and red and pink is a one of our favorite color combos to pack a serious punch of style. "We wanted to showcase non-traditional, bold complimentary color pairings," explains wedding stylist Kristin Shockley from Lustre Theory who hosted this inspiration shoot together with fine art wedding photographer David Abel. "Stepping away from calmer wedding tones, we celebrated reds, pinks and greens to create a unique tablescape with an explosion of crimson blooms and high fashion looks for bold brides who dare to be different."

The sumptuous tablescape features a mix of textures and patterns to push the boundaries of what is traditionally expected at a wedding, like blush velvet linens paired with blue Ginori 1735 settings and accented with gold. "I love to create an intimate world all to itself waiting to be explored," explains Kristin.

This dramatic wedding story is captured against the historic backdrop of the The Perry Belmont House in Washington DC. The building, Beaux-Arts in style, was built from 1907 to 1909 for Perry Belmont, who served as a United States Congressman, and later as the United States' ambassador to Spain. French architect Ernest-Paul Sanson designed the building, inspired by several chateaux he had previously built in Europe.
