Arkansas Wedding: Tropical Poolside Styled Shoot

 

I was so happy to be a part of this fun styled shoot in South Arkansas! The venue was a stunning private residence with a pool and tons of greenery as a backdrop. Jennifer of Love Events By Jen was the visionary behind this beautiful, colorful, tropical day! Her planning and expertise in the wedding planning industry made this day a dream

When you think of wedding receptions, you probably think of a dance floor + cake cutting + speeches. But I’m sure cotton candy cart doesn’t cross your mind. Let me introduce you to our Cotton Candy Cart. It is mobile + located in Northwest Arkansas. It’s been a HOT TOPIC for Northwest Arkansas Weddings and receptions lately.

Arkansas is full of wonderful wedding vendors. One of the first things a couple books when they get engaged is their venue. As a cotton candy cart, I could lie and say we dont care about the venue, but we DO! We love a good natural light venue with clean lines and walls. A few of our favorite Northwest Arkansas Wedding Venues include: Osage House, Ballroom on I, Heroncrest Event Center, Inn at Carnall Hall, Kindred North, Kindred Barn and the list could honestly go on.

Since we are located in Northwest Arkansas, it’s easier for us to give advice on places up north. The event spaces and places for wedding reception are nearly endless. But for now, Take a look at these stunning wedding images to get a glimpse into what having a cotton candy cart at your wedding could look like.

We topped this cotton candy cone with a few dried strawberries for a little added color! The cotton candy was to die for. Our bride had the best time with it! Can you imagine having this at your wedding reception? Your wedding would be the talk of the town for years to come.

Definitely recommend dressing up the puff cart with a large greenery piece! Wedding florals are expensive, we get it! And we also recommend placing an order for your cotton candy cart to tie it into your wedding reception details.

A cocktail wall is a must-have. The colors of these cocktails tied in perfectly with the bright pink and coral florals! This would look stunning at Osage House, Ballroom on I, Inn at Carnall Hall and so many other Northwest Arkansas wedding venues; that was to just name a few.
