Fire And Smoke Inspired Wedding Design By Lean On Me Events

Straight from the ideals of music legend Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire,” this fire and smoke inspired wedding design by Lean on Me Events embodies warmth, passion and everything true love! Breanna McKendrick Photography captured the lovely model couple amidst the cozy, hearth-centered stone and wood interior of The Vine. To imitate a take on fire and smoke, the team created a floral color scheme with Poison Ivy Floral Events in poppy shades of orange, coral, peach and marigold to complement the earthy shades of the venue. The model bride donned a more nontraditional gown for the thematic shoot, wearing a strapless, wispy tulle layer gown in a smokey blue charcoal hue from Unbridaled. An actual ring of fire and night’s end fireworks with the help of Celestial Displays created the ultimate wild burning love display! We can’t get enough of these beautiful photos!

From the planner: “When designing Ring of Fire, we wanted to showcase something that burned just as bright as the wild desire described in Johnny Cash’s infamous song. The back-story we created was for the couple that seeks unique experiences and wants to make the promise to always keep the flame alive between them. Pulling colors from fire and smoke we wanted to share the theme through all the details, everything from the dress down to the invitation suite. Utilizing the amazing space of the venue we were able to complete our look with a ceremony in a literal ring of fire.”
