Southern Coastal Wedding {Featured on Southern Weddings}
Tybee Island is such a beautiful spot for a wedding! We love the summer beach vibes, soft coastal breeze, and beautiful colors. And while we have seen so many weddings, we love fun twists! Like Pineapple bowling! YES! Pineapples! The team at JLeslie Designs blended coastal and traditional Southern style together effortlessly, from the monogrammed details to the framed family photos to the oyster-topped cake. They borrowed our Hayes Gown by Sarah Seven, and the soft organza and sequins really worked perfect with the sunset in the backdrop.
From J Leslie: "We decided to plan our shoot for the dunes area just before the flat of the beach, but with the lighthouse in the background. We wanted to incorporate Savannah Vintage Rental’s unique pieces to really create a sense of a room in such a vast setting. We went with the Hayes gown by Sarah Seven because of its feminine feel and movement, perfect for the breeze of the beach. We incorporated oyster elements in the invitation design, and from there, we decided to do oyster place cards and use oysters as a cake topper to tie in the concept. I wanted any of my wood signage to have similar tones as driftwood to create a natural look. This shoot was a joy to design, a dream to work with these vendors, and a blast to model in!"
We love an oyster garland! Such a beautiful and fun way to incorporate the sea. And we love the addition of them on the cake! You can tell oysters were a main color inspiration for the shoot. Soft blue, gray and cream. We love the soft pastel china by Lilian's China, one of our favorite Savannah vendors, on a gorgeous farm table from Savannah Vintage Rentals.
