A Dreamy and Grandiose European-Inspired Inspiration Shoot at The Olana

October 20

This dreamy European-inspired inspiration shoot artfully captured by Bertha Torres Photography is like a breath of fresh air, yet still feels like a scene out of a Renaissance painting at the same time! The Olana is the perfect place for this faux-destination shoot and for anyone wanting a wedding that looks foreign for brides planning a wedding within the convenience (and budget) of the Lone Star State. The mansion is built on an expansive 40-acre estate complemented by its own lake. Inspired by French baroque architecture, the venue was built as an homage to Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte in Paris. In addition to its lush landscaping, The Olana estate also features a tea room modeled after New York’s Tavern on the Green, an indoor and outdoor pool, a tennis court, a bowling alley, expansive private suites and more. Talk about luxury! Classical bridal artistry by WZ Beauty Studio gives this model a dewy, timeless blushing look that is fit for runway, red carpet, and anywhere in between complete with a wispy, swept updo secured with an opulent headpiece. Interiors of this wedding scape would surely be lacking romance without this lush, over-the-top floral design comprised of big, beautiful bright white blooms. From its borrowed charm from baroque design to the breathtaking bridal hair and makeup artistry, there is so much beauty in these styled, European-inspired wedding scenes. Keep scrolling to see all the gorgeous details for yourself! Cheers!
