Chatsworth.

In the Joe Wright film production of Pride and Prejudice, Chatsworth House was used as Pemberley, the residence of old sexy face himself… Mr. Darcy.

It is also widely believed that Jane Austen actually based her idea of Pemberley on Chatsworth House as she wrote the novel while in Bakewell, just down the road.

“The eye was instantly caught by Pemberley House, situated on the opposite side of the valley into which the road into some abruptness wound.”

“It was a large, handsome, stone building standing well on rising ground, and backed by a ridge of high woody hills; and in front, a stream of some natural importance was swelled into greater, but without any artificial appearance. Its banks were neither formal, nor falsely adorned.”

Sounds swanky doesn’t it… And if it’s good enough for Austen then it’s good enough for RMW And it certainly looks amazing in these images of Vicky and Chris’s big day… The subtle pink colour scheme and unobtrusive contemporary styling touches really let the fairytale setting shine.

Vicky The Bride: Our wedding was on 18/8/2012 at St Peter’s Church, Edensor and Chatsworth House. We picked this particular date because the number 8 has a very special meaning for the Chinese. There is a visual resemblance between two eights, “88” and the Chinese character , which is commonly used in a Chinese wedding, meaning double happiness.

Originally we were going to have our wedding in London – where Chris and I and most of our friends live, but due to Chris’s dad’s ill health, he was unable to travel.… View the full post.

The RMW Stepford Wives – Alex, Celine and Some Rough Luxe.

Well good morning lovelies, I sincerely hope you enjoyed the first instalment of the RMW real bride shoot yesterday.

And as you might have noticed there were two missing – Alex and Madame Celine (she is an actual real Madame being French and all)….well here they are, complete with Team RMW’s favourite W-day decor look of the moment – Rough Luxe.

Anyone who buys Living Etc magazine would have seen these current buzz words for interior design and we decided to bring it to Bridal. Think unfinished hessian mixed with soft wools and mercuried silver. Think mirrored glass and heavy linens paired with the prettiest of blooms…..love.

And considering it was the rainiest day on record this year, Christian and Erica made everything seem bathed in perfect sunshine.

Celine And Alex

Honestly – these pair make me laugh. There’s “face hate” Alex and teeny tiny Celine both worried to death about their pictures. I mean what? have you seen how ruddy gorgeous they look?!

For Celine and Alex it was all about soft and pretty make-up, simple yet stunning gowns and a few knock-em dead accessories….who was it that said you needed real models for a photoshoot?

Well it certainly wasn’t us.

Chloe McCall Make-up Artist: For Celine’s base Mac studio fix fluid was mixed with Mac face and body to create flawless skin. On the cheeks Mac Mineralize dark mixed with Estee Lauder Illuminating powder.

On the eye “sin” was used as a base then sidecar, smog, darkhorse and toasted eyeshadows from Urban decay naked pallet were blended to create the smokey brown eye.… View the full post.
