Your Sussex Wedding - June/July 2024 (Issue 109)

There’s wedspiration aplenty for all you roaring 20s enthusiasts in this local shoot Images courtesy of Paul Placitelli Photography Video courtesy of Taurai Films GATSBY GLAM Styled with a nod to the glitz and glamour of the 1920s, featuring a sophisticated palette of black and gold, this shoot aims to inspire those looking to create their very own Gatsbystyle celebration. The gorgeous bride wears an exquisite fit-and-flare gown with a cascading train edged with scalloped lace that fuses classic elegance with vintage charm. She arrives in style in an elegant Edwardian Laundelette, carrying her statement cascading bouquet. Her low roaring 20s-style bun and red lips combined with bespoke headpiece adorned with delicate crystal and pearl accents, plus feather cape, are reminiscent of the iconic flapper girl look, combining classic elements with contemporary flair. Meanwhile, the dapper groom is dressed in dashing white tie. The stunning floral arrangements feature plenty of lush trailing dark green foliage and calla lilies, a popular flower with brides of the era. These are styled alongside gold candle holders, decorative gold-rimmed plates and geometric mirrored place names set against a contrasting base of black chiffon and napkins. The tablescape is dramatically elevated by luxurious crystal glassware and silver-plated cutlery. Heavily inspired by the geometric motifs of the Art Deco style, the big-day bake combines bold lines with shapely contours to create a visually striking design, finished with white feathers and intricate sugar floristry. 47 LOCAL SHOOT
