Let’s begin the week with something beautiful… a classy and elegant styled photoshoot from Norwood Park. The colours are sublime, the textures are just perfect. We’re in love with the soft fabrics and the table styling… and that’s just for starters!
This is gorgeous inspiration from a lovely bunch of Nottinghamshire wedding suppliers, and we hope you love it as much as we do! More on our insta…

words by Emily Jayne Weddings
Norwood park is a country estate, nestled in the Nottinghamshire countryside. A place ideal for weddings wishing to combine grandeur and a classic quintessential English backdrop.
When Laura and Emily began organising this styled shoot they wanted to bring together classic and timeless elements pairing the Morgan 110 car with chic modern lines of the Peter Posh black tuxedo.
The show stopper moment of this shoot is the minimalist high neck crushed satin Hera Couture dress from Bridal Warwickshire. A dress that screams luxury, effortless elegance and impeccable tailoring.
The exterior of Norwood park lent itself to this vision with the Georgian windows and oversized white front door.
The styling and accessories all had their part to play and were chosen carefully. The shoes by Freya Rose London hinted to the something blue and Hermione Harbutts stand out hair band was the perfect switch for an “evening look”! Deciding to capture this in direct flash photography showed off the fun a couple can have on their wedding day.
Aine and Tom are a real couple, with their love for music bringing them together. They travel all over the country busking in local towns. When they were asked to model in the shoot they were overjoyed and despite the forecast of snow they still made the long trip to us. Their chemistry and connection is at the forefront of these images and they made the entire shoot as natural and real as possible.
Throughout the shoot we also wished to bring textured elements and a pop of colour. This was mainly through the stunning florals created by Flowers in the Wild. The blousy bouquet gave movement to the photographs and the texture of the poppys included were definitely a wow moment!
The gallery at Norwood park brings stunning natural light, impressive floor to ceiling mirrors and grand gold chandeliers. We decided to style this with a single long banqueting table, continuing the beautiful florals through the middle in bowls and stoneware jars.
The table was styled by Rustic Rose events. Using varying heights in candles, textures through glass candle holders and hand torn wild flower stationery by Paige & Co, the styling brought a prettiness to the shoot, with blush pinks and nude tones.
Overall, the shoot encompassed elegance, timelessness and an element of fun. We enjoyed every moment of creating this shoot and seeing our ideas come to life in both of our photographs is a great feeling!
To start your week on what’s a drizzly day in the Lake District… we bring you a wonderful, elegant photoshoot from beautiful Buckinghamshire. Huge thanks to lovely Chloe Bolam and the amazing team who created this stunning wedding setup in such an iconic venue! And of course, it is wonderful to see an absolutely breathtaking bride with curves, glowing and absolutely gorgeous with her man – I’m proud to be sharing this with you today. I hope you love it too!
One of the most iconic venues in Buckinghamshire, Stowe House is the perfect place to draw wedding inspiration. A stunning, 18th Century Mansion surrounded by 880 acres of National Trust gardens, the views really are incredible in every direction. The interior is so stunning you don’t even need your own decor; with painted walls, gold ceilings and accents, and sparkling chandeliers. There are so many stunning backgrounds and unique photo opportunities.

Captured and co-planned by Chloe Bolam, a UK wedding photographer, this shoot was primarily inspired by the venue and the season. With beautiful pinks and gorgeous florals from The Flower Boutique MK, we wanted to inspire with a luxury Spring theme.
With a ceremony space set up in the iconic Marble Hall, it’s simply breathtaking with its unique oval shape, marble columns and carved ceilings.
A reception and dining area was created in the Music Room, with its beautiful wall paintings and stunning views of the grounds. We used white linen and chair drapes to maintain brightness in the room and not distract from the incredible interior.
With florals on every table, gold-rimmed plates and blush pink napkins from The Knotted Napkin Co, we created a delicate and fresh Spring theme. Also on display was the incredible cake created by Grace & Cake, with hand-crafted sugar flowers and ruffles.
Delicate, hand-made stationery by Paige & Co was placed on every table, with a gorgeous sign welcoming the guests. The invitation suite was so dreamy, with stunning pinks, gold accents and hand-torn edges.
Our Bride had stunning hair and makeup by Holly Edmonds Hair & Laura Carroll Makeup Artistry, topped off with accessories from Cassie M Bridal Accessories. She wore a gorgeous lace gown with detachable puff sleeves – showing how you can have two different ‘looks’ without having to buy a second dress. To complete this classy look, she wore gorgeous ‘Harlow’ Bella Belle shoes.
The groom wore a classic black tie suit from House of Cavani, tying in to the luxury feel at this stunning venue.
What an incredible place for a wedding!
This is the second of a two part feature from a talented group of wedding creatives in Bristol. An inspirational wedding setup, designed to show you how to create a stunning look for your modern wedding.
The images in this post are all by Sasha Lee Photography, following yesterday’s feature with Megan Donati Photography’s images. (Sasha was the second photographer on set.) Each showcases a beautiful set of images in their own right, and I love how the two blogs show how much difference in style there can be between wedding photographers.
Sasha’s images are light and full of character, taking in the spectacular venue The Mount Without as a beautiful backdrop for her photography. The details are beautifully captured, and we see some special styling touches today. (Sustainable seed paper is always a win!)
Thanks again to Rosie from Raw Bridal for submitting this blog to us on English Wedding. Rosie told us the make up look for the solo bride was a soft glam, creating a defined eye with soft pinks and rose gold sparkle, finishing with individual lashes and full coverage foundation and contour.

Today is the first of a two part feature from a talented group of wedding creatives. This beauty of a shoot was sent in by lovely Rosie from Raw Bridal, and we love it to bits! An inspirational wedding setup, designed to show you how to create a stunning look for your modern wedding.
The images in this post are all by Megan Donati Photography, but as there were two photographers on set we’ll be sharing images by Sasha Lee Photography in tomorrow’s blog. Each set is as beautiful as they are different, so do pop back tomorrow to see this gorgeous inspiration in a completely different light! (literally!)
We’re in love with the warmth of Megan’s stunning images, which are just perfect for this beautifully styled candlelit wedding reception.
Thanks to Rosie from Raw Bridal for sharing this dreamy inspo with us on English Wedding.
“This was a summer energy inspired wedding shoot, using the colour theme all the way through from the stationery, candles right through to the wedding cake, macarons, lollies and even the flowers using pinks and caramels.
The models we used were a real couple using summer styled boho chic bridal dresses from Grace Loves Lace and groom in matching pink waist coat and tie.
The makeup look we’re sharing today features powerful and pigmented glowy eyes and natural glowing skin, layering blusher all the way to the bridge of the nose, finishing with faux freckles and highlighter, not forgetting the collar bones. Changing lip from night and day.”
