Style Profile: Safari Soirée
The Safari Wilderness Ranch
Lakeland, FL
Planner & Stylist: Chantilly Chic Celebrations
Bold blues, soft neutrals and touches of gold create a look that’s wild and sophisticated. Set in an outdoor venue, it’s any nature-lover’s dream.
“We loved the idea of bringing elegance to a rugged and outdoorsy venue and mixing glass with wood components. Our initial inspiration was the peacock from Carrie’s head piece in ‘Sex and the City’—we tied that in with the chargers, the bridal gown and vintage furniture, meanwhile telling a cohesive story that brides could relate to and envision themselves at this venue with this design.” –Melanie Barker & Crystal Chaisson, Chantilly Chic Celebrations
