Hawaii coastal bridal inspiration

When you have Southern California wedding photographer JEREMY CHOU team up with Hawaii wedding florist DESIGNS BY HEMINGWAY you just know the result is going to be a knock out! For this stunning coastal shoot on Oahu, Hawaii Debbie was inspired by the beauty of the islands, and she designed the florals with pretty local & European blooms mixed in with sea inspired accents. She tells us, "For coastal shoots in Hawaii, I love a focal accent floral background piece on the sand that contrast the black lava rock where our model will be styled. The ground floral altar piece was designed with white bougainvillea, local orchids & soft peach garden roses. I was also further inspired using accents of baroque pearls in our shoot so we teamed up with local artisan MARIS PEARL CO. for the most beautiful earrings & a Sailor pearl ring for our model. The seaside accents continue in the handmade coastal blue papers with crushed shells on the seal from the talented stationery artist PAPERTREE STUDIO”
