celebration Feel like kings and queens on your big day with this regal shoot Images courtesy of Eden Photographics Having witnessed some of the biggest royal events in living memory over the last couple of years, this team of local lovelies felt inspired to create their own tribute. At the time they started planning, back in March 2022, the late Queen Elizabeth II’s 70th Jubilee was at the forefront of everyone’s thoughts, so shoot coordinator and hair stylist Elizabeth Jarrett had in mind a 1940s and 1950s vibe with a regal twist as a tribute to Her Majesty’s incredible achievement. “There wasn’t a lot of money around to spend on weddings in the post-war years so I asked our suppliers to be sustainable and bring a beautiful, simple yet elegant and not too elaborate approach,” Elizabeth explains. The heartbreaking news of Her Majesty’s passing came in the intervening months, and the images were actually shot the day before the state funeral. Moving apace into 2023, we’ve experienced the incredible pomp and circumstance of King Charles III’s coronation, so now the country is back in party mode and in hindsight, the second model reflects that as well as the joy of a wedding. “We’re also celebrating the fact that when it comes to wedding planning, the possibilities are endless,” Elizabeth says. “We love working in an ever-changing wedding industry here in Somerset.” A VERY ROYAL 53 LOCAL SHOOT
