Versace, Versace, Versace

Opulent, luxurious and breathtaking would be the only way our Jennifer Matteo Event Planning team could describe this Miami Beach styled shoot.
 
We had the honor to be part of something truly special; from the incredible location to the talented team that was brought in from all over the country to coordinate, manage and execute this amazing shoot.  
 
The location selected was The Vila Casa Casuarina, a luxury boutique hotel and event venue in Miami Beach.  Casa Casuarina was built in 1930 and this renowned venue was formerly known as The Versace Mansion. It has undergone a few renovations over the years and was designed in the Mediterranean Revival architectural style. 
 
With luxury in mind, the day was styled with no expense spared. Every detail was a custom piece and well thought out to portray exactly what Gianni was about – over the top design, excellence and attention to every detail.
 
The over the top opulence of Versace was evident from the flowing one of a kind floral creations adorning tables to the unparalleled designs worn by the stunning models.  Each luxurious table-scape was unique and told a story. 
 
The rosé and gold room which was tucked back on the south side of the mansion was a crowd pleaser, as the room had never been photographed before.
 
Tablescapes were adorned with hand tailored florals created by Tampa designers Tailored Twig.  The collaboration between Tailored Twig and Jennifer Matteo Event Planning was evidenced by their spectacular design.
 
Every detail from the thoughtfully detailed bridal bouquets to the layering and accessorizing of each table was perfectly coordinated.

​Every inch of this beautiful, historic venue is breathtaking. We were thrilled to be able to style a second room where accents of grey-musky blue and white florals were used to accent the space. The unexpected addition of organic elements to the tablescapes added drama to the space.
 
We hope you enjoy the vision this extraordinary team brought to life.
