Chicago Style Magazine-Designers' Challenge 2019-2020 WinnerWe are very excited to announce we were chosen by two wedding planners to participate in Chicago Style Weddings Magazine year long "Designers Challenge" competition. The planners chose the venue, theme and vendors. Fresh Rustic Romance is the Winner!
Fresh Rustic Romance Maya Devassy Tarach, owner of Preoccupied Bride, shares her vision for the shoot. I wanted to have a styled shoot at a unique venue whose primary role was to not host weddings but certainly could. I visited a variety of venues, including museums, park districts and more, but the moment I saw the bocci ball courts private event space at Pinstripes Northbrook, I knew that was the space I wanted to host my shoot. It was gorgeous, both rustic & chic, and an indoor space with the benefits of feeling outdoors. The wood beams, strung lights and floor-to-ceiling glass garage windows that open up to an outdoor patio inspired me to do a natural and cheerful color palette of shades of yellow, green, white and brown. I’m a huge fan of yellow and lemons (as strange as that may sound), and I wanted the design to be bright, earthy and classy. That color palette, along with a lemon theme, was my vision for a fresh spring or summer wedding, and Fresh Rustic Romance was born!  The Words That Shape Us Alexis Alvarez Owner of Lillian Rose Events Shares her vision for the shoot. In early 2018, I did a consultation with the sweetest couple who had a vision for their wedding where they merged their love of literature and the city where they fell in love, Paris, in the details of their wedding. Their anchoring phrase: The Words That Shape Us. Ultimately, we didn’t end up working together, but our conversation and their love story left me so charged with vision that I knew I had to get it out somehow. Over a year later, I had the opportunity to partner up with a group of ridiculously talented creative partners for the Designer’s Challenge & I knew it was time to execute this dream. As you can imagine, over 18 months, I had the space to really get to know this fictional couple I was designing this shoot around. This couple was backpacking through Europe with their best friends & after an electric night in Paris, they found themselves hand in hand in a field of Tulips at dawn committing to spend their lives together. After exchanging their vows, they went to a local cafe to celebrate. Dish and Decor Vintage Rental is located in Crystal Lake, IL.
