The Equestrian Wedding Inspo at Biltmore Estate in North Carolina

So excited to share this Equestrian Wedding Inspo at the Biltmore Estate in North Carolina, arguably my favorite part of the entire day. It centered on Cornelia Vanderbilt, the passionate daughter of the Estate, an avid horsewoman who loved the gardens and stables as much as she loved people and parties. Elegant, spirited, and bold.

Cornelia was an accomplished equestrian and competed in both polo and races. As a nod to Cornelia’s interests, I photographed our Cornelia model in a high-neck, equestrian-inspired gown by Reem Acra, alongside a beautiful dappled grey stallion named Niko, who belongs to the estate.
