Stained Glass Inspired the Magical Fall Colors of this Romanian Castle Shoot

The Carpathian Mountains hold a moody and elemental magic, but for this shoot, Ioana Porav Photography and Destination Wedding Romania wanted to channel bold colors and soft light to create something worthy of a fairy tale! The Cantacuzino Castle offered the most romantic venue for their wedding inspiration shoot, with stunning views of the mountains and luxe surroundings including the stained glass windows that Las Floristas drew on for the color palette! The vibrant flower archway framing Neo-Romanian columns overlooked the mountain vista to bring stunning color and life into the spectacular castle setting!

In keeping with the light and bright theme of the shoot, Invogue Art created the romantic invitations for ‘nothing fancy, just love!’ The woodsy watercolors spoke to the stunning mountain views, and gold wax seals to mimic the luxurious castle setting.

Drawing inspiration from the spectacular stained glass windows and luxurious architecture of Cantacuzino Castle, Las Floristas pulled together rich plum tones from fall leaves, sunny yellow flowers, and dried grasses. The vibrant colors combined classic fall colors with a burgundy and yellow palette that is perfectly at home with current trends!
