Editor loves and inspiration

This styled shoot blends timeless bridal elegance with soft, whimsical romance. Shoot coordinator and florist, Sian Hardingham says, “The floral arrangements evoke a dreamy garden feel, while the hair and make-up aesthetic balances refined sophistication with ethereal charm.” This shoot is a celebration of friendship. You see the maid of honor by her friend’s side, guiding and assisting throughout. The bride’s emotional anchor not just on the day but in the lead up to the wedding. The word honour has never been truer.  

The creative environment at The S.P.A.C.E was the perfect space to really show off this beautifully bohemian, elegant, styled shoot

Warm, autumnal tones set the scene for Francesca and Lloyd Coombes at Villiers Barn - and what a bride tribe she had by her side... Be inspired!

The Orangery at Downham Hall with its olive-green walls was the perfect backdrop to this fresh, elegant, styled shoot.

Love in Bloom captures the contrast of enduring stone and delicate florals, wild romance blossoming in the shadows of ancient walls. St Osyth Priory was the perfect location. A place where past and present meet: a story of love told in soft light, floral whispers, and the quiet majesty of a place that has held countless love stories before.

Rebecca Moxley and Steven Moxley tied the knot on 1st November 2024 at Layer Marney Tower. In the evening, once the evening guests had arrived and before the first dance, there was a performance from the most majestic fire performer, Lauren. She was dancing and breathing fire. It fitted in with the medieval vibe perfectly and the guests all thought she was incredible.

Rebecca Moxley and Steven Moxley tied the knot on 1st November 2024 at Layer Marney Tower. Steve wore a brown tweed suit that had an orange pin stripe, which worked perfectly with our autumnal colours. He wore a burnt orange tie to bring the colour out and then wore black Converse. The pair wanted to feel like themselves on the day!

Continuing into 2025 is the vintage trend and I loved created this Lambeth buttercream cake. Combining the Lambeth/vintage trend and this year's coffee colour pallette trend - it's a winner from me!
