Any shoot that channels the early-twentieth-century glamor of Downton Abbey is bound to be beautiful, but when it’s photographed by the infinitely talented Nathan Peel and styled by the event design visionaries behind Blue Dahlia Events, chances are it’s going to be extraordinary. And extraordinary is just the word we’d use to describe this loveliest of lovely inspiration shoots, which took place at Cincinnati’s historic Peterloon Estate, whose gloriously green grounds and Georgian and Queen Anne elements set the stage for a refined, softly romantic setting redolent of an English garden. You’ll find yourself transfixed by the dreamy palette of muted blush tones, grayed blues, and lavender shades, as well as by the delicate details, including mismatched vintage china, the sweetest-looking berry-adorned tea cakes, and a splendorous array of floral arrangements. Dreamed up by Inspired Floral Design, they featured pink astilbe, pale garden roses, and wispy ferns.

You know I’m all over those berry cakes. I am also loving those arrows above the front door!
Oh, yes, those berry cakes are right up your alley! I love that you noticed the arrow design on the windowpanes!
This is really lovely. The dusky pink bridesmaid dresses are so pretty. I want that pink candelabra- it matches the roses on the table amazingly well too! I never thought I was a huge fan of pink but I’m beginning to reconsider..
LOVE THIS! I’m such a fan of the show – this is beautiful! Those dresses also need to find a way into my closet. pronto.
Love all the pretty florals and colors!
Soooo beautiful!! Love all the details and colors!
