Jun07 Great Gatsby Weds 2011

I was smitten the very moment I saw the words Great Gatsby. What’s even more, these images by Gavin Wade more than live up to the expectation of such a weighty title. I mean…it’s Great Gatsby. Anyone who has ever read the book has reveled in all the vintage socialite goodness, so using Fitzgerald for an inspiration wedding shoot could not be more of a dream come true. Styled by Gloria McCune of Grand Engagements, with insanely gorgeous flowers by Heavenly Blooms, this team of vendors (including the beautiful cake by My Sweet and Saucy) takes place at the most perfect location: Rancho Los Cerritos Historic Site in Long Beach. Check out more of the rad vendors below that helped put together all this lovely Gatsby goodness.
