We’re obsessed with this sumptuous photoshoot, boasting luxurious winter wedding ideas we know you’ll want to steal!
Set at the romantic Italian Renaissance-style Villa, St Tewdrics House in Wales, this fabulous styled shoot is overflowing with inspiration for an elegant wedding look. The chic look was planned and designed by Carolyn Louise Weddings, whose vision was to “create something that reflected our British history and culture, yet remained modern and fresh with a luxe-elegance feel.” And we think she’s done just that!
We adore the gorgeous mix of textures used, contrasting faux fur with velvet and silks for a seriously luxe finish. The colour palette is stunning too, featuring burgundy and blues, against softer blush pinks, peaches and corals. Just beautiful.
There was also a slight Art Deco influence in the styling of this shoot, as Carolyn explains: “The 1920s was a massive change in society and culture, especially for women increasing in confidence and empowerment, which is still very much relevant in todays society, perhaps even more so than ever. I felt it was important to give a slight nod to this decade by reflecting the luxury, glamour and exuberance of the 1920s with the finer details which can be seen on the cake, gold rimmed champagne saucers, perspex hexagon name places, gold metals, drinks trolley and detail of the wedding dresses and the stunning back necklace from Star Box Jewellery.”
The gorgeous floral displays were created by Nicole from Blomme, featuring soft pinks and bright reds, using chrysanthemums, chocolate cosmos, dahlias, carnations, eucalyptus, ranunculus, anemones, memory lane roses and black roses.
Adding to the vintage look, were the dreamy bridal gowns from Justin Alexander, provided by Perfection Bridal Cardiff. The wow-worthy cake, created by award-winning Cake Designer Zoe from the Vale Cake Boutique, also had an Art Deco influence with geometric detailing on the bottom tier.
