The NotWedding Styled Shoot

Posted by | pretty pictures | No Comments
We’ve been working extra hard behind the scenes to get ready for the first ever Charlotte NotWedding.  In preparation for the big event, we had the pleasure of collaborating with some extremely talented vendors on a styled shoot.  Who doesn’t love a picnic by the lake and a romantic canoe ride??!? aJvFz3O_caeBMZ1SeB_LnPXUI3ZiI-8OFR7q0E__-zM c2Ah3Op3hjHxKkHusjtmAF39ljxQb47WjNhBMVDZz2wfwZPOGxztV2QY7ct9okV2AE0IXI7buj07P56ZRAfy0A jCZ0PCwATck2ofZBAKe5CmfKmXa2kaXnepJK-gi0r7M kv8K-_ufQUqzDVClAEuFlL79kmlzCWITZZvRC4ZQ03M o-SjjOm4XSeATXQwE6OA5QosPh17_WwP7teXTDoIjjA w1AC8rXG4Wr1P59E9FFsfWmyWOT9nXCObbycryLAc04Photography: LaCross Photography | Styling + Design: Simply Southern Wedding & Event Design | Hair + Makeup: Blushing Hair & Makeup | Desserts (Macarons + Key Lime Pies): Sugar Euphoria | Flowers: Nectar | Vintage Rentals: Vintage Charlotte | Pillows: Two Peaches Design | Invitation: Coppia Creativa |  Wine: Shelton Vineyards

We recently worked on the sweetest shoot for Carolina Bride Magazine!  We were given the challenge to give new life to some tried and true southern traditions.  Here are some of our favorites from “Southern With a Twist” which can be found in print in the July 2014 issue of Carolina Bride magazine:

The Lace: We created this hanging lace chandelier and provided all the pretties for the table.  The lovely flowers are from New Creations Flower Company.

THE SUMMER MARKET VENDOR SPOTLIGHT: Beautiful Idiot Clothing

Posted by | events, vendor spotlight | No Comments

Our vendor spotlight posts give you a chance to meet some of our amazing vendors before the Vintage Charlotte Summer Market on June 14, 2014 at The Fillmore Charlotte.

It is no secret that we are pretty much obsessed with everything that local designer Beautiful Idiot Clothing makes, here is Hollie talking about how it all started and what they are bringing to market:

We started out making adorable outfits for the little ones, as Rosie and Pepe. One day we finally realized that we could create wonderful pieces for adults, inspired by a style we would want to wear ourselves. With my background in fashion, we began to make prototype dresses and hand painted zip pouches. Perfect pieces for a night out in Plaza Midwood!

IMG_3468Anthony, feeling left out, suggested we try to make unique skinny ties. The first fabric we used in the process was actually an up-cycled plaid pajama set from Anthony’s brother. We now try to hunt down awesome fabrics from thrift stores, and closets alike, for most of our unique ties. Beautiful Idiot Clothing is beyond ecstatic to bring these styles to the VTGCLT Summer Market!
