Your West Midlands Wedding - August/September 2023 (Issue 87)

pretty Fall in love with glamorous styled shoot at Bourton Hall Images courtesy of LB Photography AS AS A FLOWER The inspiration for this shoot came from Bourton Hall, where Caroline Stokes from Palm & Peony Flowers was amazed by the contrasting dark wood staircase and the bright façade of the chapel. “I knew that each of these spaces would look stunning filled with colour,” adds Caroline. “The Italian Renaissance style doors were calling out to be shrouded in rich summer florals. We chose a timeless, summer glamour theme, and each of the suppliers contributed to the sense of elegance. The florals were the star of the show, with rich pinks, corals and oranges paired with soft peaches and blush used throughout. Having two female models meant that we could show two looks that embodied the theme; the first was a sexy vibe in sleek satin with sultry waves and a smoky eye, and our second model wore sparkles and a low bun with shimmering skin for a more youthful look. The layering of colour and texture were important in the Banqueting Hall, so we chose a grand, floral centrepiece and golden table linen to contrast the pink glassware and modern stationery.” 59 STYLED SHOOT
