Sarah + Seth | Retriever Brewing Co. Pantone Peach Elopement
Picture this: an intimate elopement filled with romance, style, and the charm of a 1968 Playmor camper named Little E. Set against the scenic backdrop of Retriever Brewing Company, this styled shoot was more than just a showcase of wedding trends—it was a celebration of creativity, collaboration, and the magic of small weddings in celebration of Sarah & Seth’s One Year Anniversary!
Inspired by the Pantone color of the year 2024, Peach Fuzz, this styled elopement combined soft, neutral tones with bronze accents to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Maggie J’s Little E Photo Camper was the star of the show, bringing vintage charm to the ceremony space. The camper’s muted tones paired perfectly with the modern floral arrangements crafted by Mosaic & Co., setting the scene for a day that felt simultaneously nostalgic and fresh.
This shoot was a beautiful reminder that sometimes, less truly is more. Intimate weddings allow for a deep focus on what matters most: the love between two people and the artistry that surrounds them.
