Real Inspiration: Multicultural Glam - The Couple

This is part 2 of our Multicultural Glam shoot that I did with a fabulous team of vendors.

It was captured by Picotte Weddings who not only worked behind the lense, but in front as well.
 The lovely & gorgeous Suthi & her husband Sanjay jumped in at the last minute to model for the shoot and had their associate, Star, capture the images of the 2 of them.
 The stunning bouquet by Peony & Plum was filled with orange and red roses, pink ranunculus, golden and purple dendrobium orchids, purple anemones and lisianthus, pink cymbidium orchids, red kangaroo paw, succulents, and peacock feathers. I am in love!!! 
 The bride wore a hand made hair piece by Flora Bond which included white feathers, vintage fabric and vintage rhinestones. So gorgeous.
 Hair & Makeup was done by the fabulous team at Fiore Beauty. So to die for.
 The amazing wedding dress with lace accents was created by my girl Alina of Alina Pizzano Couture. She's based in Pasadena and her work is just impecable.
 The groom wore a traditional Indian outfit that he actually wore when he and Suthi got married a couple of years ago. Love that he got some extra use out of it.
 The boutonniere was created using a purple anemone and peacock feather by Peony & Plum.
 The shoot took place at the historic Ebell of Los Angeles which was an amazing backdrop for all of these photos.
 Suthi donned a second outfit, a traditional Inidan sari. The color is just amazing on her.
 The bouquet from Peony & Plum just pops against the red sari. Love it!!
 I love that photographers capture all the details of the day, down to the shoes, literally.
 Again, The Ebell, was a fantastic backdrop, a canvas if you will for this shoot.
 And how gorgeous is Suthi's authentic Indian jewelry. I mean wow.




Stay tuned to see the rest of the details of the shoot: escort card table, coffee bar, invitation, and the cake. I can't wait to show you.

Fabulous Find: Flora Bond's New Spring Collection

Nicole of Flora Bond and I met last year through Twitter. She has a beautiful aesthetic and eye for detail and if you'r looking for accessories that are truly unique, then look no further. 

From necklaces and earrings to head bands and hair combs, she uses vintage fabrics, beads, and found object to create masterpieces to wear. She can also create custom designs based on your color scheme and taste. She's great. 

Check out her work over at her website and etsy store. She also got a recent shout out over on Wedding Chicks as well.
