Dark Urban Wedding With Burgundy Styling and A Black Wedding Dress

Dark, dreamy and the most beautiful lace black wedding dress for you to feast your eyes on today. Set in two locations in Hartford, Connecticut, USA, this wedding inspiration is alternative, urban chic with lots of attention to detail in its red and burgundy styling. Sarah Brehant of Brehant Creations Events  and some of the other suppliers involved tell us how this dark urban wedding was created…

“It all started with Sarah of Brehant Creations Events vision and a gorgeous, black wedding gown. We wanted to showcase a different take on a black wedding dress other than the typical “spooky” vibe, and instead go for something a little bit edgy, glam, and industrial. You can wear a black dress without having a “Halloween” wedding! This styled wedding inspiration shoot features unique florals and urban art, a distillery and brewery, and LOTS of detail.”

“We were inspired by deep wine and burgundy shades against black lace, the cocktails crafted by the distillery (our cocktail hour location), and the ‘industrial meets lush florals’ concept for our reception layout at the brewery.”

“Our shoot took place in Hartford, Connecticut. We set up the cocktail hour at Hartford Flavor Company, a unique artisan liqueur distillery with a tasting bar called “Diana’s Lair.” Our couples portraits were shot outside of their building against a backdrop of vibrant street art and exposed brick. Then we headed down the road to Hog River Brewery, where the ceremony and reception were set up.”

“Sarah mixed industrial, modern, and lush florals to create a unique look that we hoped would inspire non-traditional brides. Our table decor is visually striking, mixing hand painted plates with beautiful crystal candle holders, black gunmetal flatware, and other decor from Enchanting Moments. A wrought-iron arch, a hand-painted vegan leather jacket, and hand-lettered place cards with white script on matte black paper all tie in seamlessly. We loved showing that you can combine different styles into one cohesive look. The key is to follow a strict colour scheme: we used burgundy, black, white, and gold.

“Sarah chose Allie  to perfectly execute this edgy and bold shoot because her colourful photography would be unexpected in this dark and moody setting. Allie loved capturing all of the unique details in this shoot – from the invitation suite, to the tiny honeybee pin on the groom’s jacket, to the stunning bouquet, juxtaposing pops of vibrant colour against darker tones was so much fun.”

Florist- The Gardenist

Natalie, used locally grown florals such as hanging amaranthus to add dimension and texture to the arrangements. The grand bouquet features black knight scabiose, ranunculus, plum pudding heuchera, and a showstopping protea. (The flower names may be foreign to most, but the arrangements are truly inspiring and eye-catching!)
