Styled Photo Shoot at Chateau Bouffemont December

A styled wedding shoot is an excellent opportunity for a me as a wedding florist to showcase my creativity, collaborate with industry professionals, and attract future couples. By working alongside photographers, planners, and other vendors, I am able to craft stunning floral designs in a controlled setting, allowing for professional-quality images that highlight the artistry.

Unlike real weddings, where time constraints and logistical challenges can limit creativity, a styled shoot allows me to experiment with new styles, color palettes, and flower combinations. This helps me show couples who resonate with this aesthetic. Additionally, networking with other vendors can lead to future referrals, strengthening business relationships and benefit my clients as I know my team, making the day go smoothly for the bride and groom.

For engaged couples, styled shoots serve as a source of inspiration and a realistic preview of what I can create for their special day. Brides and grooms browsing Instagram or Pinterest are drawn to beautifully curated images, making styled shoots an effective way to showcase the florist’s expertise. Seeing fully styled tablescapes, bouquets, and floral installations in a venue setting helps couples visualize their own wedding, making it easier for me to demonstrate my skills and gain a couple’s trust.

Château Destination Weddings in France

As an American, we don’t get to see a lot of castles in the USA. Obviously we don’t have the history for them nor the societal hierarchies that warranted castles that protected domains and possessions and invading foreigners. These historic edifices are what makes being a wedding florist in France so fun for me. I get to go on a ‘tour’ each time there is a wedding and see some beautiful classical edifices.

Each time I speak with a couple and learn about the venue they’ve chosen, I go straight to searching for pictures online. I literally get goosebumps when I see the location and imagine the possibilities of the flowers for their wedding. There are HUNDREDS of castles to choose from! How lucky am I?
