Dusty Blue Winter Wedding

A winter wedding aside pins and pines, which we definitely need to show you.
The decoration concept emphasizes on seasonality. Reed, Pampas, Brunia and dried berries go hand in hand with the color scheme and reflect the surroundings as well as the season in a perfect way. Decoration rings, glassy lanterns, washed cotton table runners as well as mother of pearl vases and name tags underline this winter style not only at the sweet table, but also provide a matching frame for the table setting.

Bohemian Mountain Wedding
How natural, honest and personal is the wedding of these two lovelies at a very special place in the middle of the charming mountains of Salzkammergut.
A small chapel forms the perfect frame for their free wedding ceremony. Opposites also attract when looking at the designing: Rustic leather, fine lace, tattoos and flowers reduced to pampas grass, gypsophila, eucalyptus and herbs. Following your individual style, this is
how beautiful it can get.
Old Italian floor vases and matching chairs from the 60´s complete the picture. It does not need more for the perfect moment at this
wonderful location.
After the couple shooting the two start right into their honeymoon - who would not want to do that with this car...
... absolutely in style!

Peach and Mustard Summer Wedding
The stunning scenery of lake Traunsee is the starting point for the wedding of this beautiful couple with international guests coming from more then 5 countries.
The colour palette from peach and mustard to rosé and salmon shades creates a summer party feeling full of easiness, which gets a festive touch by adding fine golden details.
Graphics, flowers as well as the sweet table are harmonised with each other in a lovely way and the evening venue adds a cozy and romantic feeling by using lots of different sources of light, such as candles, fairy lights and lanterns.
The guests will be surprised with a wedding itinerary embedding so many highlights of the region, however still taking care of the different cultures - no matter if during the bilingual open air wedding on the boat, the culinary treats during dinner or the Persian wedding ceremony followed by a relaxed and easy evening party.

Salzkammergut Lake Wedding
The story of these two lovelies should start with a meaningful, high-quality and classy festivity.
Full of tradition without being sedate, casual and chic at the same time, with fine decoration details from natural materials, reflecting the colours of the surroundings, matching the upscale cuisine. Timber, linen, fine pottery and glass with berries as additional decoration element.
The ship cruise is accompanied by a hearty snack and a candy bar with local specialities.
Salzkammergut without the usual "Dirndl" romance works out too.
Quite well actually.
Ethno Chic Wedding
Styled Shooting
Earthy and a bit rough, free and anbound. A mix of wild west, aztec patterns and a mongolian yurt.
Our Ethno Hearts move around the world, love this nomadic feeling and their independence, are inspired by most diverse cultures and landscapes.
Natural materials, such as cotton yarn, raffia, leather, clay and wood paired with an unusual colour palette and delicate ethno patterns result
in a comfortly warm mood.
Distinctive details allow an appealing contrast and create a very personal atmosphere:
Leather boots paired with a fine dress, rugged cactus next to soft pillows, big vases with dried flowers, sweet dried fruits next to a cheese wedding cake, an old fan and a ukulele... a very personal elopement followed by a two-some picnic and a campfire under the stars.
This is the beginning of a wonderful joint path.
Enjoy the ride, not the destination.

Die gorgeous premises of this castle are underlined by using a mellow colour palette and tender lines. The balloon decoration creates a wonderful contrast to the old ambiance and brings absolute light-heartedness.
Rosé, peach und gold form the main colours, geometric lines are used in the graphics as well as in the decoration and round elements such as the golden wedding arch, are repeated also at the wedding cake presentation as well as the seating plan.
These fine matchings achieve a very harmonic overall picture, just as the likeable couple itself.
