We love when creatives think outside the box and use everyday objects (and especially food!) as wedding inspiration. Did you see the recent Blackberry inspired wedding style from Christie Graham Photography?! Well today we have the humble orange (kumquat, in fact!). An often overlooked fruit and even colour for weddings, we think it's the perfect summer 'pop' of colour that any modern fine art bride could pull off...

Adrian Michael Photography teamed up with Clare Day Flowers and French Kiss Events to create this wonderful summer escapism and inspiration for us. We love the paper and calligraphy on the bottle from Laura Lavender Calligraphy too!

From Barb Raymond of French Kiss Events: "Surrounded by the rugged Canadian west coast, open sea, and soft sand, the bride dreams of “a love so deep, the ocean would be jealous”. Taking inspiration from the ethereal beauty that the west coast provides, our color palette came from the textures found in the sand, driftwood, and rock, as well as the few pops of color that appear over the landscape come Spring. The kumquat oranges created an organic feel to the floral design and allowed the table setting to feel even more natural. The luxurious lace used on the dresses enhances the romantic side of the west coast. The soft lines of the calligraphy, along with the natural linens and ribbons used, give a nod as well to the whimsical and ethereal feeling we wished to bring alive."
