With a garden ceremony and a reception in an enchanted forest, this wedding inspiration is every princess bride's dream come true! Seven florists (SEVEN!) teamed up to bring this inspiration to life, so it's no surprise that the floral arrangements are real showstoppers. From the quaint blossoms of the ceremony arch to the over-the-top cascading floral centerpiece, we simply can't get enough! The bride and groom are definitely dressed the part with the groom in a beautifully tailored suit and the bride in an ethereal off-the-shoulder ballgown with gorgeous billowing sleeves.

E Grace Design brought all of these spectacular artists together for this once-in-a-lifetime shoot. E Grace Design, Farmhouse Floral, Fresh Designs Florist, Intrigue Design & Decor, Marcia Davis Flowers, Ponderosa and Thyme, and Skillins Greenhouses worked together to create these unique floral installations that take this forest at Mowfield from beautiful to enchanted. These photos by Magic Arrow Photography look as if they've been ripped right out of your favorite fairytale book. To see more from this inspiration shoot, check out the full gallery.

AN ENCHANTED AFFAIR

Under the tall pines at Mowfield in Cumberland, Maine, sits a reception table fit for a flower queen. Dahlias, cosmos, and various other beauties cascade down the table that awaits guests. This enchanted forest reception was imagined by E Grace Design of Maine and brought to life by a team of talented florists led by Intrigue Design & Decor, Ponderosa and Thyme, and Fresh Designs Florist. To dine under a canopy of trees, surrounded by flowers–what a dream.

FULL OF WHIMSY AND ROMANCE

For bridal portraits and a potential ceremony site, the team created a flower archway at the entrance of the quaint garden on the Mowfield property. A mixture of fresh and foraged flowers arc above the couple’s head to create the perfect frame for a photo. To add to the whimsical romance, the couple enjoyed a stroll with their flowered bicycle and had a hot pink vintage car as their "just married" getaway. At the center of it all are our flower friends, adding natural wonder to this dreamland. The scene leaves you imagining what enchanted fairytale awaits for your big day.
