If you’re dreaming of a wedding that dares to be bold, playful, and refreshingly unique, this styled shoot at Abbey Road Farm in Oregon Wine Country will be your ultimate mood board.
With a concept centered around the idea of a retro, fun-loving party for two sophisticated souls, this vibrant editorial—captured by Joie Thongsavath of Simple Joie—redefines what a modern wedding can look like.
“Inspired by the concept of a retro, fun-loving party for two classy individuals, the shoot aimed to create a vision of ‘painting the town red,’” shares Joie. “This wasn’t just a styled shoot; it was an invitation to couples to rethink what a wedding could look like—vibrant, playful, and unapologetically unique.”
Set against the lush green backdrop, the ceremony space took on a whimsical yet romantic feel. Two asymmetrical floral arrangements bursting with bold red blooms framed the vineyard views with modern elegance. Crisp white chairs lined a makeshift aisle, creating a perfect contrast with the colorful florals and natural surroundings. The result? A ceremony setup that felt intentional, elevated, and beautifully in tune with the landscape.
While the ceremony embraced the beauty of nature, the reception leaned fully into retro glam. From checkered dance floors to neon-colored lights and disco balls, every detail was infused with nostalgic charm. Richer tones and moody lighting added depth, while gold accents brought a sophisticated edge. Unique signage in playful retro fonts, acrylic place cards in bright red, and red signature cocktails tied it all together in a cohesive, statement-making way.
The style choices for the couple were just as expressive as the decor “A sleek satin gown with bold red gloves paired beautifully with a tailored white suit, ensuring each bride shone equally,” shares Joie. “And the bouquets? Both brides carried stunning arrangements, shattering traditional norms of boutonniere-and-bouquet pairings.”
Consider this styled shoot is a love letter to couples who crave a wedding day that is anything but ordinary.
