Lovely Suzy Elizabeth Photography got in touch a little while ago with this stunning shoot from Merriscourt Barns. When I saw the exquisitely detailed, romantic wedding dress by our fave, English Wedding member Cynthia Grafton-Holt, I was instantly in love… and I’ve been so excited to share this with you ever since.

Romantically elegant styled shoot at Merriscourt (35)

The aim of this shoot was to showcase the rustic and elegant Merriscourt barns in the picturesque Cotswold countryside in a real venue set up.

We don’t often have ‘Owls’ in a list of suppliers for a photoshoot. Then again, we don’t often have owls swooping down towards the bride and groom, or perched on a beautifully styled wedding table. So this, my lovelies, is something a little different! Stunning styling, a gorgeous couple and fabulously curated details to show you how to create a wonderful floral wedding look with palest blues and whites and lush foliage… oh, and y’know… owls. Enjoy!“english

This classic styled wedding editorial felt perfect for a Sunday… the relaxed and elegant vibe, the gently sparkling gown and lush florals… While wedding trends change every year, there’s something so classic about an ivory colour scheme. It’s also one which works with every season, and can be blended with other more unique or quirky elements to make it truly yours. For example, for this wedding shoot the team added gold accents for a splash of opulence and green to keep things fresh and calm. Huge thanks to English Wedding member Lorna Richerby Photography for sending this beautiful feature our way. Please do check out her website if you’re looking for a Hampshire wedding photographer – and also see the full list of talented wedding suppliers who worked on this photoshoot below.
Happy Sunday, lovely!

I went paddling on our beach twice in November… sand and sea are a huge part of my life. So this beach inspired shoot with lovely Sian from Amethyst Weddings is a special one for me. Sian’s focus on ethical wedding planning and styling is ever so important, and here she shows how beautiful an eco friendly beach wedding can be! The little details are stunning with starfish charms, a geode cake and bright sand ceremony making this a unique and enchanting eco wedding style. I hope you love it as much as I do! I’ll leave you with Sian to explain how she created this look with a brilliant team of Hampshire wedding suppliers.

Escapism has been a huge part of the blog this year – and it doesn’t come better than this. Jaw droppingly beautiful dresses and dreamy florals, daringly different styling touches and a wintry aesthetic…. I ADORE this shoot! For wedding inspiration with an alternative twist, keep on scrolling and prepare to fall in love! Huge thanks to lovely Clare at Clementine Moon for sending this our way. Images are by lovely Hannah Barnes Photography, and there’s a full supplier list for you below.

With love,
