Traditional Italian Wedding Inspiration

This dreamy Italian shoot by Le Frufru incorporates several traditional symbols: birds (representing the couple), the olive tree (representing traditions) and a pink bow (representing the union). I love how all these symbols were used not only on the wedding stationery (check out those cute favor tags!) but throughout the shoot as well. Doesn’t help that I have a slight obsession with olive branches…
