This is part two of the sassy London bridal shoot we fell in love with last week! (Check out part 1 here if you missed it)

sassy modern bridal style from Stoke Newington with Amanda Karen Photography

We’re talking gorgeously modern, gently alternative, glamorous wedding styling with a luxe twist. And yup, all of those things fit together beautifully. A trouser two piece by Kate Edmondson Bridal, styling by Perfectly Planned 4 You, and simple, elegant florals from Catherine Short Floral Design – basically my dream styling team. Captured by our fave, Amanda Karen Photography – this is everything.

When I scrolled through this gorgeous styled shoot I realised we’d enough stunning images to make two features for you! So here’s part 1 (part 2 coming next week!) This is absolutely glorious, contemporary chic bridal style with sass – I just know you’ll love it. Huge thanks to our lovely English Wedding member Amanda Karen Photography for sharing it with us… and to the whole team for creating something SO beautiful!

The shoot centres around super cool Stoke Newington, and was created by Lou at Lovehairbylou. The venue, now sadly closed, was Stokey’s wonderful Last Crumb Café, and the outfits are by bridal designer extraordinaire Kate Edmondson.

I know it’s been a tough 12 months for weddings, and it’s been heart-breaking and stressful for so many couples to have to postpone their wedding.  A wedding signifies so many things to so many people, contrary to some people’s belief, it is more than a party.  And as we eagerly await the end of the pandemic and a return to some sense of normality, I wanted to share my 10 reasons why your wedding will be worth it, and will be the occasion you’ve planned and hoped for.

One year… for so many reasons, it’s hard to believe it’s been a full twelve months since our lovely couple Rebecca & Tom celebrated their wedding – literally, the last wedding before lockdown. They married on the 29th of February, 2020 – an elegant and glitzy wedding in London. Rebecca is stunning in a Nicole Milano dress, and Tom’s Charles Tyrwhitt suit is perfect for their black tie occasion. Their cake is a beauty; the stationery exquisite and florals divine (Rebecca’s bouquet featured in our ‘20 best bouquets‘ piece a couple of weeks ago!) – All images are by our friend and talented London wedding photographer Amanda Karen.“english

Big hugs and lots of love this chilly Valentine’s Day! I hope you’re having a lovely day, having lots of cosy snuggles and taking some time to simply enjoy being in LOVE!! I’ve been saving this stunning inspiration feature up to share with you today. The red roses and stunning wintry florals are just divine – and it’s all wonderfully elegant and beautifully put styled. This glorious feature was sent in by our lovely friends Amanda and James at Amanda Karen Photography.
