Your Yorkshire Wedding - November/December 2022 (Issue 57)

A luxe styled shoot with an edgy Marie-Antoinette vibe full of frivolity and excess Images courtesy of Gail Secker Photography Marie-Antoinette was a rule-breaker celebrating individuality and femininity. A Georgian woman’s beauty and couture was a powerful asset, used by clever ladies to cultivate a public image. MarieAntoinette led Rococo fashion with huge, poufy hairstyles, enormous pannier skirts and all manner of decorative frills, feathers and bows. The tumbling teal tulle in this statement Giulianna gown from Millia London breaks all the rules of what we expect from bridal. It’s exuberant, over-the-top romantic and delightfully feminine. Set in the house and grounds of Newburgh Priory, an exclusive-use country wedding venue in the idyllic village of Coxwold, period features are all around. There are three Georgian drawing rooms, a long gallery ruin with optional marquee and stunning landscapes to offer an incredible backdrop for a wedding ceremony and reception. The stylist chose a luxe floral selection, featuring rich, toffee roses, peach orchids, ranunculus and delphiniums set in feathery silver and blue-toned foliage. RULES Breaking 41 STYLED SHOOT
