Romantic Brunch Wedding Inspiration with Coffee and Donuts

Share

You can’t go wrong with a brunch wedding, especially when it’s paired with amazing food and an espresso bar! Emily In Love styled this beautiful day with a romantic brunch wedding in mind, and a assortment of fancy donuts from Route 8 Donuts to go along with it. 

There’s plenty more to this shoot though then just coffee and donuts! With pops of pink, gold and green, lush tablescapes, gorgeous wedding paper and stunning flowers are just a few of the details you’re about to see! Be ready to pin it all, because the full gallery is filled to the brim with even more amazing images from Red October Photography

From Red October Photography: While getting ready the ladies sipped on Sundara 75s (Sundara’s version of a Peach Bellini) while lounging in their silk Katherine Bignon robes. After getting glammed up by Kearston French and the ladies of Innovations Salon, the bride slipped into her designer Allure gown and the bridesmaids all wore gowns by Dessy from Chantilly Lace Bridals. The bride wore Sylvie Collection diamonds from Kent Jewelers, and the bridesmaids wore gems by Gemma Jewels

Coffee + donuts

The most beautiful brunch spread by Blue Ridge Catering, a latte bar by The Green Cupboard and Red Rooster Coffee Roasters, and donuts by Route 8 Donuts, awaited them. Our styling team, led by Mark Frye of Creative Occasions, designed the perfect tablescape filled with shades of pink and the most luscious greens. Mark also designed the stunning bouquets and the sweetest floral collar for the cutest English Golden Retriever puppy, Ellie Mae.

Brunch Inspired style

This shoot was inspired by a new donut shop, Route 8 Donuts, located in Christiansburg, Virginia. Route 8 Donuts opened their doors in the summer of 2016 to bring their love of the community and donuts together. They are planning to cater for weddings and what better way to promote this service and their delicious donuts than with a brunch soiree styled shoot. Sundara, located in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains outside of Roanoke, set the stage for an incredible team of vendors to come together for this magical (and mouthwatering) styled shoot; that is sure to leave you craving coffee + donuts.
