Butterflies are a symbol of transformation, change, hope and rebirth. Seems like we could use all of these things after the last two years. Enjoy this colourful and unique wedding inspiration.
We wanted to showcase the beauty of change. As a caterpillar goes through metamorphosis into a beautiful butterfly, the aspect of social mentality changing and being more accepting of people of different cultures and a bolder, brighter outlook. Especially poignant, are the addition of colour-shifting butterflies to signify that what looks like one colour to one may be different to another.
The wonderful couple that modelled are originally from India. Tricia from Envied Events suggested a pant dress to showcase the fun and bold side as well as the strength and character showcased in the female model. The velvet suit was used to bring out more of a feminine side in the groom, not to mention the texture is so similar to butterfly wings. It was just perfect!
The best part of any photoshoot for me is having fun creating. Asha of Penned Creations also likes to throw in some wit. All of the names in the invitation suite are either translation of butterflies or types of butterflies. More than anything, my favourite part was working with the wonderful team that came together for this project and seeing their amazing skills shine. I had a lot of fun on this one and with so much meaning behind this project, I know it will always be a favourite.
