A Styled Wedding Shoot at The Figge Art Museum: Blush and Black Elegance
There’s something incredibly special about blending art, romance, and a beautiful venue, and that’s exactly what we got to do recently at the Figge Art Museum in Davenport, Iowa. I had the pleasure of photographing a stunning styled wedding shoot that was set in this modern, breathtaking space. The vibe was chic, romantic, and effortlessly cool, with a blush and black color palette that balanced elegance with a modern twist.
A huge shoutout to the talented team of vendors who brought this vision to life, as well as the beautiful couples—Jamie & Broch and Veronica & Jeremy—who modeled for us. They brought so much love, warmth, and chemistry to the shoot, making it feel authentic and magical. I’m excited to share some photos from this gorgeous day!
The Figge Art Museum set the perfect stage for this shoot. Its sleek architecture, natural light, and inspiring artwork created an atmosphere that felt both sophisticated and inviting. The venue's modern design provided the perfect backdrop for the blush and black color scheme, allowing every detail to stand out beautifully. From the elegant gallery spaces to the stunning natural light pouring through the windows, the museum made for an unforgettable wedding setting.
I have to give credit to I Do Events for creating such a gorgeous atmosphere. They really nailed the decor, seamlessly combining blush and black elements to give the space a modern, elegant feel. The clean lines of the furniture, the thoughtful floral arrangements, and the eye-catching centerpieces all came together perfectly. The decor set the tone, creating a relaxed yet luxurious atmosphere that made the shoot feel effortlessly chic.
Pumped Party added a fun and playful twist to the elegant setup with a balloon wedding “arch” that perfectly complemented the decor, bringing an unexpected pop of whimsy to the space. It was the perfect balance of elegance and fun!
K'Nees Florists worked their magic with the florals for this shoot. The bouquets were absolutely gorgeous. The combination of soft and bold tones gave the florals a fresh, modern feel, while still adding the romance you’d expect from a wedding. The florals really helped tie everything together, adding depth and beauty to the overall look.
The invitations from Junie’s Invitations were the perfect introduction to the shoot’s color palette. Clean, modern design with subtle blush and black accents set the tone for the wedding. These paper goods added a refined touch to the shoot, hinting at the elegant yet approachable vibe that would unfold throughout the day.
The macaron tower from Little Sweets was adorable! Plus, I’m sure it tasted just as good as it looked!
When it came to bridal beauty, Lux Loft Hair Co. and Haven Beauty Collective totally knocked it out of the park. The brides’ hair styles felt both romantic and modern, and their makeup expertly done by Mallory Fitzgerald was glowing and fresh. The entire bridal look was polished, romantic, and undeniably chic.
The brides’ gowns, designed by Jenna Eden Designs, were absolute stunners!
As the photographer, I had the privilege of capturing the gorgeous details and portraits of this styled shoot. Toastworth Events by Avery also played a key role in capturing the magic, with their incredible eye for detail.
This styled shoot at The Figge Art Museum was such a fun experience. The blush and black theme felt timeless and chic, and the whole day had such a relaxed yet elegant vibe. A huge thank you to Jamie & Broch and Veronica & Jeremy for being such beautiful models and showing off their love so effortlessly.
A big thank you also to all the vendors who brought this vision to life and made the shoot truly unforgettable. If you're a couple dreaming of a wedding that’s modern, romantic, and full of art, this shoot is full of inspiration.
