Stylish, cosy shoot with ceiling drapes decoration

A minimal, timeless style in a Welsh Wedding Barn - a cosy and romantic setting for an autumnal wedding. In addition, Plas Dinam Country House, specifically the wedding barn, was the perfect venue. We wanted to create an elegant and timeless feeling - and we did!

Ceiling drapes decoration

We are completely and utterly obsessed with the decorations in this shoot. White ceiling drapes decoration was hung dramatically around the venue. This simultaneously made the shoot look artier as well as romantic. These decorations were teamed with beautiful light florals, timeless stationery and a stunning cake. This created a clash between the perfect white fabric and dress against the beautiful texture of the brick barn walls, and the autumnal leaves falling on the glass roof. Never overlook the importance of venue decor!

Fashion and beauty

The vision of the shoot was timeless elegance. The fashion and beauty side certainly played its part in making this vision a reality. The stunning dress from Wilden London added brilliantly to the theme, matching with the ceiling drapes. Also, the strapless cut of the dress is incredibly flattering and is easy to accessorise. Not to mention, the matching hair and makeup tied together this stylish bridal look perfectly. Lastly, the groom's jet-black suit was the final splash of chicness. Cosy elegance oozes out of every single photo! 

The drapes decorations tie in perfectly with the chic, cosy vibe

We had stunning dresses from Wilden London, which created a timeless, elegant feel along with the matching hair and makeup from Louise. The Groom wore a black suit, to complete the timeless finish.

This shoot is the stuff of dreams. It might be the drapes that make everything seem dreamier, or the fantastic fashion, beauty and styling. We can't forget about the venue itself - barns are undoubtedly fantastic spaces for photos and weddings alike.
