A Sophisticated Soirée Without Leaving Southern California

For the chateau-loving bride who has to bring European style to the states, Sparkling Soirées has created a charming design for your day without having to go to the French countryside.

What better way than to celebrate the launch of one of Orange County’s newest venue, Fête the Venue, than with a styled bridal shoot honoring their French roots.

After coming to the realization that both of our companies are branded around French words, “soirée” meaning an evening party & “fête” a celebration, we knew this shoot would be a match made in heaven.

Bringing European flare to California, we incorporated slate blue into our design with ornate vintage pieces from Sundrop Vintage‘s extensive warehouse, including their Parisian water goblets, which are certainly fit for a castle. With the addition of ombré chiffon draping and lush white florals provided by Hydrangea Bleu, our vision came to life.

Our bride was adorned in a hand-beaded, long-sleeve Inbal Dror lace gown from Panache Bridal Costa Mesa with hair and makeup by the lovely Lisa Marie. Our handsome groom wore a Friar Tux ensemble to perfectly compliment his radiant bride-to-be.

With the light & airy photography style of Erica Streelman and the editing magic of Light and Memory Films, the romantic setup, inspired by the City of Love itself, was beautifully captured for the world to see.
