In the heart of Minnesota, nestled in the charming new venue of White & Sable, a styled shoot unfolded last year that was nothing short of a sunlit dream. The theme? A vibrant ode to the breathtaking beauty of Capri, Italy, with yellow taking center stage. This shoot was a testament to the charm of Italian elegance fused with modern wedding trends, creating an idyllic setting for any couple looking to infuse their special day with a splash of Mediterranean magic. Jennifer Sanders Photography captured everything so beautifully.

A Palette of Sunshine

Yellow, the color of warmth and happiness, was the undeniable star of our styled shoot. Every detail was carefully curated to reflect the sunny spirit of Capri. From the lush floral arrangements from Blossom Studio, bursting with hues of lemon and gold to the delicate napkins and table settings that mirrored the radiant Amalfi Coast, the vibrant color palette was both uplifting and sophisticated. The epitome of Capri-inspired elegance.

A Citrus-Inspired Escort Display

No Capri-inspired event would be complete without a nod to its famous citrus fruits. Our escort display, created by Olive & Twig Design Co., was a playful yet elegant feature, incorporating the zesty flair of lemons and limoncello. This escort display featured all the table numbers and assignments tucked among fresh lemons, creating an aromatic, interactive element that brought the Italian coastline to life.

Sip in Style: The Champagne Cart

Adding a touch of bubbly excitement to the day was Liquid Motion’s bespoke champagne cart. This wasn't just any cart; it was a whimsical addition that served up specially created drinks, each named and designed specifically for the shoot. With a nod to Capri's breezy elegance, concoctions were made, each offering a unique taste experience that perfectly complemented the sun-drenched theme.

Table Elements That Tell a Story

The tablescapes were a feast for the eyes, meticulously designed to weave Capri’s story throughout the venue. The tables were arranged in a serpentine layout, adorned with yellow and white pillar candles that flickered gently, casting a warm glow throughout the venue. The scent of fresh lemons and oranges, artfully interspersed with large flower arrangements, bud vases, and small lamps, mingled with the floral notes, evoking the essence of Mediterranean gardens. Elegant tableware, accented with gold cutlery and crystal glassware, created a luxurious dining experience. Hand-painted ceramic plates, reminiscent of traditional Italian craftsmanship, added an authentic touch, creating an inviting and picturesque setting.

It was a celebration of color, style, and culture, proving that even in the heart of Minnesota, one can be transported to the sun-drenched shores of Italy. Whether you're planning a wedding or simply dreaming of an Italian escape, this shoot serves as a beautiful reminder that with a little creativity, any vision can come to life.

The White & Sable venue provided the perfect backdrop for this sunlit adventure, offering a versatile space that seamlessly blended with our theme. It’s a venue that promises unforgettable moments and serves as an idyllic canvas for any couple’s dream day.

We hope this styled shoot inspires you to embrace bold colors and unique themes, and to create a wedding day that’s as bright and beautiful as your love story.
