This Florida wedding reception has us swooning. Undoubtedly from the tropical greenery to the modern farmhouse back drop, this styled shoot is everything we love above Florida weddings.
Tropical Greenery Everywhere
Modern tropics is so perfect for the Florida bride and groom. Admittedly the team of vendors first thought of birds of paradise and flamingos. However, that style would not show off the gorgeous venue. Instead they wanted something more modern and classic. For all those reasons, the photographer, Kristine of Honeywood Photography, said this about the choice of greenery – “I feel like florals play such an important role in creating the vibe of the wedding. Further the greenery adds a classy touch. However, florals go in and out of season. Subsequenly, the styled shoot team chose to use mostly greenery in the design. Because it is year round and can be done in an elegant way.”
Florida Wedding Reception
The venue, Cypress Creek Farmhouse, in Astatula, FL, wanted to set up this styed shoot just as if a wedding was going on. For example, there was a fully set up outdoor ceremony area. Next, a reception room with a DJ. Finally, to add a bit of whimsy and fun, Orlando Photo Bus, a vintage Volkswagen Bus was added. Correspondingly, the models, whom are a real couple, said they should have renewed their vows because it was so perfectly set.
wedding bouquet drama
With a color scheme of white, black, gold and greenery the wedding bouquet is sure to wow. Accordingly, Le Fleur Atelier created this bouquet. No doubt it is what wedding bouquet dreams are made of. Thus we absolutely had to share it with you.

Wedding Expert Advice
In conclusion, we asked the photographer what she learned while on location at this styled shoot. Kristen said, “This is a lesson that I have already learned. In fact this day reinforced it. The lesson is to work with an amazing vendor team, it will make such a big difference on wedding day. That is to say, when everyone is nice, friendly extremely talented and always brings their A game. Without a doubt, magic will happen.”
