Between the fall tones; bold invitation suite, incredible tablescape; the bride’s perfectly classic gown, hair, and makeup; and this incredible venue, I cannot get enough of this styled shoot. And, I’m so excited to share this fall wedding at The Ritz Charles Garden Pavilion in Carmel, Indiana on the blog!
The fall color palette really popped in the neutral Ritz Charles Garden Pavilion.
Now, full disclosure, this was not a real wedding. The images in this blog post are from a styled shoot organized by some truly amazing wedding vendors who designed and organized every detail you’ll see in the images below.
This kind vendor team put this shoot together and then invited Indianapolis wedding photographers to participate in the styled shoot in an effort to help all vendors involved build their portfolios.
Wanting to design a bold, fall wedding that still felt timeless and bridal, Kaitlin Mendoza Photography and Becoming Designs Events (the lead vendors and organizers of this styled shoot) chose a color palette featuring both bold (black and burnt orange) and light colors (blush and ivory).
The vendor team managed to balance these colors perfectly and create countless special elements and little details. I mean, check out the leather name cards!
This styled shoot and design was both edgy and timeless, and the neutral, greenhouse-inspired Ritz Charles Garden Pavilion allowed every detail to pop.
Speaking of the venue, if you’re in the process of searching for an Indianapolis-area wedding venue, I highly recommend checking out The Ritz Charles Garden Pavilion. Not only is this reception space beautiful, but this venue is steps away from the lovely Ritz Charles Chapel—where you could have your ceremony—and has countless excellent photo location options just outside the venue.
