Modern, architectural, blush and beautiful

Published by Claire Gould on

This is wedding styling of dreams. A graceful, sleek wedding dress teamed with designer stationery in a monochrome palette and lush, romantic florals – just beautiful. Capturing it all is our talented and lovely friend and Essex wedding photographer Amanda Karen Photography.

The contrast between the softness and delicate colouring of the floral arrangements, the modern lines of the off the shoulder dress with its statement bow, and the striking stationery make this a really stunning wedding look.

The floral archway is innovative as it is beautiful, a square rather than a gentle curved arch, and all the more impactful for it. We’re in love! The floral arch is used to frame the sweetheart table and cake display here, but we love it for its versatility: why not use a floral arch as a backdrop for your ceremony, then for your portraits and to set behind the top table at your reception?

Everything works so beautifully together in this gorgeously contrasty way: the designer cakes are elegant and on trend with a modern and minimalist vibe: set beneath the floral arch they both have that incredible wow factor.

The tables are topped with elegant candles, with geometric hurricane lanterns at the foot of the draped tablecloth. It’s all just so beautiful. The colour palette of blush and greenery with accents of burgundy, set against the black and white stationery and cakes – it works so well together, don’t you think?
