LOCATION, LOCATION...IMAGINATION
Groves lining the hills. Vineyards sweeping the valleys. Amalfi’s soft dreamy coastline hues. There is not a more romantic place to join together in marriage than a place that reminds you of the enchantment of love under the Italian sun! And while traveling to spectacular destinations such as Amalfi is on-pause, with inspired creativity, couples can find romance and wanderlust right-at-home. That's exactly what Harper and Callum did. At Kurtz Orchards in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Kassia Tjia Events designed the perfect escape for their modern micro-wedding inspiration. Delicate luxe details centered around Amalfi's soft coastline hues remind us that true love and wanderlust will always belong together.
No detail of this intimate travel-inspired wedding was left to chance. A perfect palette of blush, peach and cream florals by Flora & Farfalla set the scene throughout, reflecting the pastel tones of the Amalfi Coast at sunset. Stationery by Olumis Calligraphy was the perfect complement to this modern classic romance, featuring soft warm hues, hand-torn ripped edging, gold-leafing, fine-art floral accents and custom calligraphy.
DRESS THE PART
With a love for heirloom couture, the bride wore Rara Avis lingerie, a romantic set in warm nude tones and lace. Harper chose the ethereal Venus lace gown by Ida Torez and playful hand-crafted clay floral earrings from Feather & Pearl Boutique. Her look was the epitome of natural beauty, with makeup by Presley Foskett and her hair in dreamy waves perfectly styled by Allyssa Helm. The bride's breathtaking petite crescent matching pavé rings were by Tacori from Gordon's Gold .
The groom wore a Mono Uomo suit and a nude knitted tie to complement the soft neutral tones of
the day.
FEEL THE LOVE
The sun shone as guests arrived to rows of vineyards and delicate details in romantic chantilly, peach and gold hues. Friends and family were welcomed to a small heartfelt ceremony under the olive tree with a modern and simple floral installation hanging overhead.
After Harper and Callum's vows, guests were treated to an intimate dinner nestled in the orchard, basked in the warmth of the setting sun. The elegant tablescape was graced with custom-made potted centrepieces designed by Kassia Tjia Events, Stella Wolfe silk runners, nude tableware, luxe gold accents, and gold-leaf-kissed menus.
After dinner, a 3-tier chantilly cake designed by The Dessert Room, with gold-leaf and nude floral flourishes, provided the perfect moment for the sweethearts to steal a kiss and sip Bellinis in the vineyard grove.
A GREAT ESCAPE
The couple then stole away for a trip down the winding road of the property in their vintage Italian Vespa, a wedding day gift from Callum to his bride, restored fully just in time for the wedding. Before the night ended, Harper and Callum took a quiet moment to take in their sunset together. Captured by Dylan & Sandra Photography, Lisa Vigliotta Photography, and Anton Park Films, Harper and Callum celebrated their love exactly how they wanted—surrounded by their favorite people and inspiration that made them feel right at home.
