This wedding shoot is a beachside one but this isn't a usual one, it's chic, refined and luxe

When you think of a beach wedding, it is usually more casual with bright colors and lots of nautical details. Beso Weddings and Events and her team of Chicago vendors is changing everything you thought about seaside weddings with this elegant and romantic shoot captured by Erin Stubblefield. With a unique color palette of rich plums and dusty blues, this inspiration is perfect for any season.

The style is fresh and romantic, with modern geode details balanced with elegant calligraphy. Luxe silk and velvet fabrics add that sophisticated touch you never thought you could have with a beach wedding.

The bride was wearing a two-piece wedding dress with a white wide strap top and a flowy blush tulle skirt. The bride’s fishtail braid is even given a glam touch with a jeweled headpiece. The resulting look is unexpected, sophisticated, and utterly chic! I also love her bridal bouquet with blush blooms, greenery and dark leaves and flowers. The groom was rocking a dove grey suit, a white shirt and a black tie.

The wedding cake is a trendy geode one, with gold brushstrokes and dark purple druzy detail. This is another lush detail about this refined wedding, as we usually expect to see something simple, decorated with shells but here none of that kind.

The wedding is filled with cool luxe and a bit formal touches that are so unusual for this wedding theme, so scroll down to get some inspiration!
