I couldn’t let the bank holiday pass without a post now could i?!

I gasped when i saw the spectacular theatrical bridal inspiration shoot, those close up shots of model Rita are amazing. Fabulous make up and hair ideas for your weddings girls!!

If you are a theatre lover, why not incorporate some of these ideas into your wedding day? Glamorous, monochrome and creative ideas here.

Thanks so much to the brilliant Kat from Desarigny Photography for sending over this shoot that she organised and shot… wow! Here is what she had to say;

 

“I’ve been thinking for some time about doing a stylised shoot with a difference, something away from the current vintage/floral theme but still as pretty and as striking!  So I drew inspiration from my background in dancing and decided upon a theatrical theme using masquerade masks! The colour palette was Black & White and the décor was simple elegance with creative flair!  

I did all the styling myself and let me tell you what a relief it was seeing everything come together! I didn’t know if it would work, all I had were ideas in my head and images I needed to put on camera.  Finally, after contacting various suppliers and setting a date, the shoot was in motion!

Much to my delight, the suppliers I contacted were all keen to collaborate and therefore I was blessed with the most gorgeous, pretty things to photograph! I am thrilled my first stylised shoot was a resounding success and the ideas I had in my head could be translated into photographs!”

A Lakeside Alabama Engagement

A Lakeside Alabama Engagement ~ UK Wedding Blog ~ Whimsical Wonderland Weddings

It’s international Saturday… woop!!

I have the most romantic engagement to share. Madison and Angela met at summer camp… so so sweet, so they headed down to a lake for their engagement shoot. I so love their vibrant yet stylish attire and the shot on the rowing boat.

Thanks so much to Jennifer Blair Photography for sharing her images with us today, here is what she had to say about the shoot;

 

“Sometimes you meet a couple and come away thinking “they go together really well!” It’s not just that they look super cute together, but they compliment each other and blend well…kinda like peanut butter and jelly. Madison and Angela are one such couple. It was so evident throughout the shoot that they just go together well! Their interaction was so sweet and tender. Ah, I love to see couples in love. It makes my heart so happy. Each couple is different though. Love takes on many forms, but with Madison and Angela I’d have to say they are nothing short of precious. They met at a summer camp where they both were counselors and have been head over heels ever since!

For their session we decided to meet up at The Waters in Montgomery, Alabama. I had never been there and was happily surprised to find that this place was amazing! This little community build new antebellum looking homes on a gorgeous lake. It was perfection. We had so much fun exploring by the lake-side, sitting on the docks, canoeing and admiring the area together! I thought it was fitting that we ended up taking some photos of them in a canoe since they met at a summer camp!”

An Urban + Stylish Brick Lane Engagement

An Urban + Stylish Brick Lane Engagement ~ UK Wedding Blog ~ Whimsical Wonderland Weddings

 

Afternoon WWWers, i am leaving you with this last post for the working week and its a goodie :-)

Katie and Scott are totally head over heels for one another (their commentary is a must read) which makes for the sweetest images. Combine that with the über cool Brick Lane in London, Alexander McQueen shoes, a stunning ring and gorgeous light and it creates these beautiful shots.

Thanks so much to the amazing Miki Photography for sharing his images today, here is what he had to say about the shoot;

Katie & Scott are getting married in Sept and for their engagement shoot we decided to do it around the Brick Lane area because that’s around the area they both used to live when they first got together.  Scott especially knew all the cool nooks and crannies and highlight of the shoot must have been the 10mins we got shoot on an abandoned car park roof (Scott old teen hang out place) before security chased us off — but it was well worth it! Katie & Scott were a real joy to shoot because the chemistry between them is sooo electric and they must hands down win PDA couple of the year award! : ) I think they would have gladly continued all the poses whether I had been there or not — lol! But I think they look fabulous and what I feel you get from the photos is their amazing sense of connection.”

Katie: “I work in TV Production and so for the shows we film we always need couriers, messengers and cars. Scott works for the firm we used and was my liaison so around filming time would always we’d be spending loads of time together working and then all of us hang out after filming was done, but it was always seasonal so obviously whilst filming we’d see each other all the time but once a show was done we wouldn’t see each for months.”

Scott: “This seeing Katie and then not seeing her went on for 2 years but I’d never have an excuse to call her once filming was done and whenever we went out it was always in the context of a group people, so whilst we’d spent loads of times talking together, laughing, joking we were always in the company of other people. Then one night after all going out, I walked her home and persuaded her to go for one more drink. Finally I’d got her alone and I asked her out. 1 and a half years later (apart from work) we’ve never spent a night apart and in fact in the first six months we were together everyday.”

I fell in love with this couple as soon as i spotted Anna’s amazing glasses… Anna i have serious glasses envy here hehe!

In all seriousness, i love Anna and Jamie, they are carefree, fun and totally stylish. They kept their engagement shoot simple, heading down to Ashdown Forest, with some outfit changes, a cute blanket and some fun props.

Just wait to you heard Anna’s fab account in the feature, she’s so much fun and their wedding sounds incredible.

Thanks so much to the awesome Annamarie Stepney Photography for sharing her fantastic imagery with us today;

Bride to be Anna tells me how she met Jamie; “Jamie and I met in 2008 in our favourite bar in East London. We got on like a house on fire and after discovering we both hailed from Nottingham and were born in the same year, got on to the subject of schools. Scarily, my mum had taught him English Lit at A’Level. Even more spookily, I remember his final essay, as my mum suggested I read it, as it was on Trainspotting. Awful handwriting. There was no way I was going to try and decipher that scrawl. Our whole first date was spent working out if we may have met/snogged/ignored each other in our regular hangout, Rock City. Conclusion: Probably.”
