Inspired by a certain boathouse proposal and a Bayside Bride editor who met her fiance while rowing, the most recent Bayside Bride styled shoot was designed around the idea of a regatta-ready bridal shower! With rowing papergoods, oar-stamped favor bags, preppy decor, and a dessert bar filled with enough sweets to feed an entire crew team – this shoot was truly incredible!
I had so much fun photographing this styled shoot and although it wasn’t a real bridal shower, Krista, Sara, all of the Bayside Bride interns and myself enjoyed a little sweet tea after our work was done! I’ve included two images at the end taken by my great friend, Krista A. Jones to show a little peek behind the scenes!
The beautiful invitations & stationary were designed by Krista A. Jones while the DIY projects, including the Flag Banner, Chalkboard Sign, Tabble Runner, and beautiful display was courtesy of Bayside Bride’s Event Designer – Sara Metzger! The sweets included a delicious Tulip Cake from Clay’s Bakery, Smith Island Cakes, Cupcakes from Georgetown Cupcake, and sweet treats baked by the interns!
