An Essex Wedding - Sep/Oct 2019 (Issue 88)

71 REGIONAL SHOOT T his wonderful styled shoot was organised by Monet Events to showcase its strong beliefs in empowering women and supporting local businesses. Director Stephanie York collaborated with Brides Do Good, a social enterprise that sells pre-loved and sample designer dresses to fund projects to empower girls, promote safe education and protect against early marriage. Also involved were some of the county’s best local suppliers who share similar values. Stephanie explains, “With the world focused on being socially responsible, we thought the natural beauty of a woodland setting would be perfect. With the help of potted plants, ferns and foliage along with locally sourced flowers, we wanted to show what could be created while remaining sustainable and repurposing items.” Enjoy!
