That’s So 70s at Aquila Barn

A Retro-Inspired Styled Shoot

At Chelsey Huff Design, we had the exciting opportunity to participate in a groovy 70s-inspired styled shoot at the picturesque Aquila Barn. Planned by the creative team at Rice and Co. Events and captured beautifully by Turn the Paige Photography, this shoot celebrated vibrant retro aesthetics while showcasing modern wedding inspirations.

A Retro Revival with Modern Charm

Rice and Co. Events envisioned a theme that would seamlessly blend the iconic style of the 1970s with contemporary wedding trends. With a warm palette of oranges, yellows, and pinks accented by pops of vibrant hues, the shoot evoked nostalgia while maintaining a fresh, modern edge. Aquila Barn’s rustic charm and serene outdoor surroundings provided the perfect setting for this funky yet elegant celebration.

Stationery with a 70s Groove

For this shoot, we crafted a stationery suite that exuded retro flair. Drawing inspiration from the bold patterns and playful typography of the era, we designed invitations, menus, and a welcome sign that featured groovy fonts and dynamic color combinations. Each piece was meticulously designed to reflect the essence of the 70s while incorporating a sophisticated, wedding-worthy aesthetic.

Our welcome sign set the tone with a mix of bold pink hues and whimsical shape of the signage, while the menu cards added pops of fun to the tablescape.
