Enchanting Old-World Inspired Wedding Shoot at Château de Michellia

Gorgeous antiques and avant-garde fashion came together beautifully to inspire an enchanting shoot at Salem’s French-inspired Château de Michellia. Shadows and light mingled with blooms and decadent design details, lending the scene a distinct vintage aesthetic, with hints of Asian fusion to honor the bride’s heritage. The blooming estate grounds served as the setting for the smartly dressed couple: She wore a vintage-inspired gown accessorized with a hand fan and statement pearl earrings, and he rocked a classic tuxedo. Complementing the bride’s look was a stunning bouquet bounteous with textured neutrals by Novella Floral. Exuding the old-world charm, a single-tier cake with retro piping sat atop a thrifted cake stand and was adorned with a few choice blooms. With curated pieces from some of Oregon’s best antique malls and thrift stores, including Curiosities Vintage Mall in Tigard, House of Vintage and Memory Den, the design successfully captured the essence of timeless elegance with a contemporary twist.
