Pretty in Pink & Turquoise

February 21, 2012 · 37 Comments

Me and the lovely Steph, of Fairy Nuff Flowers fame, met while working on Katie & John’s beautiful Northbrook Park wedding a while back, and instantly hit it off. We have a very similar sense of style and share a love for all things pretty, whimsical and rustic. While we’re lucky to get to work together on the same weddings from time to time, at some point we got the idea for a day of creating something purely for the love of it and on our own terms, mostly in order to keep our creative juices flowing. The shoot was something nice to plan and look forward to in the dark winter months.

I’ve been obsessed with a pink & turquoise colour scheme for a while, so that was our starting point. Our plans evolved slowly from there, following trips to antique markets and local thrift stores. We ended up with two different set-ups; a quirky tea party with a twist, incorporating surprising elements such as deer antler, and a rustic picnic type set-up, for which we wanted a cute Victoria sponge cake, decorated with flowers, as a focal point. This is where Charlotte from Restoration Cake came in and made the most adorable cake, plus some decadent cupcakes for the tea party setting. To complete the picture, two start up stationery design companies, Rose and Ruby Paper Co. &  Berinmade, created the prettiest paper goods that fitted the briefs perfectly.

All in all the day was just bliss. After a long time of planning, and collecting items for the shoot, we were surrounded by so much beauty that represented exactly the kind of things we would love to see at real weddings. And it goes without saying that Steph’s flowers were the perfect stars of the show.

As well as the table settings, one of my goals was to take some flowery pictures that would work as fine art prints, and I’m pretty pleased with how these came out as well. If you’re interested in having some flowery goodness on your walls, you can see a selection of wall art over at mnoo.com. Some of these images also ended up on the pages of the latest issue of You & Your Wedding magazine, so if you want to see more check out the March/April issue, out now!

P.S. I took sooo many pictures that it was quite hard to trim this post down to something sensible, keep on eye on the other girls’ blogs as you’re bound to see more prettiness from this shoot to come.

Anna & Russ | Wedding

May 14, 2010 · 42 Comments

Anna & Russ’ charming London tea party wedding took place on a beautiful spring Friday in April. Anna had put such care into every beautiful detail, that the whole day was literally bursting with prettiness! Everything from the gorgeous Montague on the Gardens Hotel, where Anna was getting ready, to her beautiful dress by Stephanie Allin from Blackburn Bridal, accessories, and especially the flowers (oh the flowers!) from Euphoric Flowers were carefully thought out to carry the theme and colours through the day and the different venues. Anna looked absolutely gorgeous with a little help from  Severin Hubert from Hepburn Collection, who worked his magic on her hair, while Lina Cameron did her make-up.

The ceremony took place in St George’s Holborn from where guests were ferried to the reception in a London routemaster, while Anna and Russ travelled in style in the cutest VW Beetle driven by Helen from Polly Pootles. Anna has a keen interest in the Tudors so Fulham Palace was an ideal venue for the reception. Being a tea party, the food consisted of delicious sandwiches and mouthwatering cakes, which were all laid out in the most gorgeous manner, such a feast for the eyes as well! Create did a brilliant job with the catering.

There were also lots of thoughtful little touches, such as a bead bar by Abby from Beadoir for the young ones to make their own jewellery, and a pretty awesome candy buffet by Party Belles Events, which got both the children and adults alike pretty excited!

If I were to fall in love with a wedding and had to be monogamous (so glad that’s not the case :D), I think this one would have to be the one!

Thanks so much Anna & Russ for giving us the opportunity to enjoy so much prettiness in one day! I hope you’ll always pay such attention to the smallest of details as you did for your wedding, as they are the things that create a little magic in life.

I just can’t resist posting a very sneaky peek from Anna & Russ’ adorable vintage-flavoured tea party wedding, just because Anna looks so absolutely stunning getting into her gown! I’m still editing the rest of the pictures, so it will be a little while until you can see more, but I will share a gorgeous Oxford hill top wedding this weekend. Stay tuned!
