As the team behind Meghan Marie Studio, we were absolutely captivated by Justin and Didi's wedding at the stunning Hotel Versailles in Versailles, Ohio. Their vision – a serene blend of pistachio green, white, and those subtle pops of yellow and orange, all touched with elegant gold – was a photographer's dream for a wedding photographer like us. It was a celebration of quiet beauty, and we felt privileged to document it as their chosen Ohio wedding photographer.
From the moment we arrived at the beautiful wedding venue, the air felt different – a calm joy permeated the space. The minimalist wedding aesthetic, punctuated by the artistry of the Japanese Ikebana floral arrangements, spoke volumes. Our approach as a fine art wedding photographer team was to mirror this intentionality in our wedding photography, focusing on capturing the delicate balance and the genuine emotions unfolding throughout their Hotel Versailles wedding.
We moved through the day with a sense of quiet observation, our lenses drawn to the subtle interplay of light and shadow, the texture of the fabrics, and the thoughtful placement of every detail. We aimed to not just document, but to truly feel the atmosphere Justin and Didi had so beautifully created for their Ohio wedding. The Ikebana floral design, in particular, was a joy to photograph – each arrangement a miniature sculpture telling its own story, a unique element we love to capture for our wedding photography clients.
And then came the wedding reception! The energy shifted in the most wonderful way. While the ceremony and earlier moments were marked by serene elegance, the reception was an absolute blast. It was clear that everyone, Justin and Didi included, was ready to celebrate their wedding day. The dance floor became a vibrant hub of joy, with guests letting loose and celebrating with unbridled enthusiasm. We were right there with them, capturing every spin, every laugh, and every exuberant move. It was fantastic to witness and document such a seamless transition from elegant calm to pure, unadulterated fun at this memorable Ohio wedding reception.
For us at Meghan Marie Studio, it's always about more than just taking pictures. It's about immersing ourselves in the wedding experience and capturing the essence of the day in a way that allows our couples to relive those precious moments – both the quiet intimacy and the joyful exuberance. Justin and Didi's Hotel Versailles wedding was a beautiful reminder of the power of understated elegance, followed by the sheer delight of celebration, and we are so honored to have been their wedding photographers in Ohio to capture its serene and heartfelt beauty, and all the fun that followed!
