If you’re feeling all the summer vibes and dreaming of a coastal, beach wedding look, today’s blog is for you. I’m so excited to share this wedding editorial photoshoot inspired by the laid-back ruggedness of the rocky cliffs and softly rippled sand of North Devon, and the olde worldy elegance of the Watersmeet Hotel.
The styling is perfect and the images are divine. And you know what? I adore wedding inspiration where the model couple have had fun. On this occasion, you will have to scroll all the way to the bottom of this blog (reading as you go, obvs – you don’t want to miss anything!) for those amazing sand in their toes moments. As beach wedding editorials go, this one’s pretty damn special. It’s also utterly gorgeous. (More on instagram later too! @englishweddingblog)
You absolutely can’t overestimate how important music will be at your wedding. A backdrop or soundscape for your ceremony, afternoon and evening will play a huge part in how your day feels. More than that – your wedding music will add layers of excitement, tranquility, playfulness or joy through the day. Key songs will bring memories flooding back – and all of the emotions along with them. All you need is indeed love… and a damn good wedding soundtrack!
This photoshoot was made to inspire your creativity, music lovers! The dreamy colour palette and 70s music scene nostalgia run through every element, and it’s utterly fabulous. As always, I’ll share my favourite images on instagram @englishweddingblog – see you there!
If your English summer is on the unpredictable side, allow us to share some sunshine with you! I adored this playful and colourful inspiration when it landed in my inbox – the flowers are incredible and every photo feels like summer. An utterly beautiful way to style a wedding which would work in any space from a barn to a tipi to a country house. Huge thanks to lovely Danielle from Blotted Ink Photography for sharing it with us!
As I write up this gorgeous styled wedding for you today, I’m humming “Black Tie“. Having spent Friday evening watching the incredible left-wing, butch lesbian protest folk singer Grace Petrie in Gateshead, this joyful LGBTQ+ wedding inspiration couldn’t feel more perfect to share with you today.

It’s not often I get to blog an editorial I was a part of – so today I’m more excited than ever to share this stunning collaboration by the loveliest group of people I’m delighted to call friends. (They’re all incredible talents too!) I really hope this will inspire you to use colour to create a wedding look with real heart and soul! Ash from In The Meadow Floral Design came up with the gorgeous concept for this wedding look with rich, vibrant flowers full of texture and fun, in the most amazing colour palette. Images are by lovely, talented Lake District wedding photographer Hannah Hall Photography, at Holesfoot in the Eden Valley. My calligraphy plays a little part, dressed in purple and gold.
