With Bridal and Tabletop Market last week, as well as a fab jaunt to DC for the B-List this past weekend {more on that later!}, Merci New York was thrilled to cover many wedding industry happenings and events over the past few days. However, in the thick of it all, we didn’t get to share some of our own work; including a tres-fun collaborative photoshoot with many of NYC’s most talented designers. Though many of you might have seen the great recap on Design*Sponge and Brides.com last week, I thought we’d publish a few new pics of the chic shoot that was…
Gorgeously ethereal hair accessories from the lovely Amanda at Untamed Petals ; all makeup by the talented Lauren Napier . Bespoke invitations and small paper goods by Lela New York ; wonderfully delish catering by Stuart & Welch Florals and terrarium-inspired tablescape by Poppies & Posies . Absolutely gorgeous custom hand-painted clutch and chic calligraphy by Janelle Sing Boutonniere by poppies & posies ; styling by Merci New York and poppies & posies . Scrumptious, {and not to mention, gluten free}, cupcakes by Tully’s Bakery Merci New York ‘s custom gift and dessert table, including a birdcage enclosed favors and couture welcome baskets Beautiful eco-friendly wedding dresses by Adele Wechsler and bridesmaid dresses from 57 Grand . And of course, perfect photography at our venue, the Xchange , by husband and wife team, Oh Darling! Photography
Aside from how fun and fabulous this shoot was, the most rewarding part was seeing how everything came to life. Of course, our end-goal was to inspire brides looking to design their Manhattan wedding, but when shoot wrapped up, we all left with a sense of camaraderie and picture-perfect proof that a cohesive design aesthetic is truly the work of several talented artists.
