      eco chic shoot at the Naples Botanical Garden

      Earlier this year we photographed an eco chic styled shoot at the Naples Botanical Garden. Jennifer of Wed Perfect came up with a wonderful concept: we shot one setup of what one might imagine an eco wedding to look like, and then we repurposed many of the same eco materials into a second, more glamorous wedding shoot. Click here to check out today’s post on Style Me Pretty Florida. Karl and I are supporters of eco-wedding touches, big and small. A huge thank your to everyone who participated in the shoot, and of course to our wonderful models!

      Nicole & Steve Part 2 | Naples Botanical Garden | Naples Wedding Photographers

      Here are photos from the second part of Nicole and Steve’s wedding at the Naples Botanical Garden. We were delighted to hear the Star Wars theme played by violins as they walked down the aisle together as man and wife. These two are so sweet and they have the coolest family. I think Karl and I both cried a little during the toasts. As mentioned, Nicole and Steve considered the environment while planning their wedding by using organic locally grown wheatgrass centerpieces, recycled invitations, conflict-free diamond wedding rings (Brilliant Earth), and low-water plants as favors. These details made the festivities that much prettier and more personal.

      Not to overlook the groom’s style, Steve wore some colorful Converse sneaks, how cool is that? Then there was the R2-D2 cake. It moved and blinked, I kid you not. To light up the dance floor, Nicole and Steve reused the LOVE sign from their engagement session. We liked the way it looked reflecting color off the floor between all the dancing feet. Nicole and Steve, congratulations! We are so thankful to have been a part of your celebration.

      We also had the pleasure of shooting a foto video for them on their wedding day. We’ll share that in another post.

      Nicole & Steve Part 1 | Naples Botanical Garden | Naples Wedding Photography

      Remember this great engagement shoot? Nicole and Steve’s wedding at the Naples Botanical Garden was just as wonderful. Not only did they choose the local Gardens, which are a dream to photograph in, they also incorporated eco-friendly features into their wedding day. I’ll describe more of their handmade and eco details in part two of their blog post. Sir Daniel and Faces by Frohmberg did the wow hair and makeup for the day. Isn’t Nicole gorgeous?

      Being kind to the earth is something that Karl and I keep in mind when making decisions in our home life and for Luminaire Foto. So much so that we offer couples like Nicole and Steve as much as 15% off our photography plans! We understand that weddings are expensive events, and by making responsible choices you’re often adding to the cost. It’s our little way of saying thanks for making a thoughtful choice. These weddings are extra beautiful and meaningful events as well as fun for us to photograph!
