Winter Wedding with Bride in a Juliet Cap Veil & Eliza Jane Howell Gown

What Made Our Day Unique

Our wedding was all about good vibes & was an expression of us and what we liked. From the festoon lighting illuminating the foliage to the ‘’spicy boy’’ cheese toasties that we served for our guests in the evening, our wedding was all about the things that we groove on, steeped in Robert and Shakira-ness.

Inspiration & Styling

We really dig the 1920s era, my wedding dress was adorned in intricate beading and my Juliet cap veil was reminiscent of the 1920s. Robert wore a black velvet dinner suit which classically complimented my dress. Instead of feathers we modernised and opted for Pampas grass & foliage, I’ve never been a flower kind of girl so instead of masses of flowers we had an abundance of candles, making it more romantic, perfect for a cosy winter wedding. Other than walking down the aisle with my dad & our nuptials, My favourite part of the day was when we had the opportunity to mingle with our guests with a cup of tea – we compartmentalised the timeline of our day, meaning we could spend the most time with our guests, enjoying and immersing ourselves in the moment.

Our Stylist Lo & Behold Bespoke was phenomenal! No request was too big or small. Their attention to detail was second to none from initial sketches to the big day itself, everything was seamless and absolutely stunning! Harry Michael, Our photographer was also a man of the hour.. he was a picture ninja and captured the most beautiful images on the most amazing day of our lives!
