A Stylish London Elopement

When Cinzia Bruschini sent us this gorgeous shoot, we just had to feature it. There aren't loads of floral displays, or lots of dresses - it's just a real life couple with beautiful London as their backdrop. Our Capital looks breathtaking in some of these images, Cinzia has captured the city at it's best, as well as the lovely couple. And the gorgeous Bridal hair accessories? Simply stunning - AM Faulkner's work is stylish, on trend and totally unique, and I'd love to see some RMW Brides wearing her pieces.

Anna Petterle of Snowdrops Weddings and Events: We wanted to tell the story of a very special elopement, of an unconventional bride, of a couple that breaks the tradition by getting ready together in the same hotel room. This couple’s wedding day is photographed at iconic spots around London and the result is stunning, images that are very powerful and almost cinematic. Nina and Kuba are couple in real life and they're getting married next September in Italy so it was so natural capturing those romantic moments between them. We wanted a stunning and alternative bride and Nina perfectly impersonates this character; her makeup and hairstyles, by Silvia Gerzeli, reflect her personality. Oh, I love a bride with red lips! We decided to use a strong palette of colours, red, whites, blacks paired with copper (to mirror the amazing hair colour of Nina) and simple but modern lines for the two dresses, “Heart of Gold” by designers Claire La Faye and “Dunaway” by designer Elizabeth Dye, kindly provided by Heart Aflutter Boutique. The bridal bouquet by Rebel Rebel is modern, unconventional and bold, just as our bride is. One of the elements that I love the most about this shoot are the accessories from AM Faulkner Bridal, so innovative and fashion forward. We were so lucky to be able to use two of my absolute favourite pieces, the copper tiara and side veil!
