STYLED SHOOT A Wild Pampas Dream
Introduction
| STYLED SHOOT | A Wild Pampas Dream
If you are after some insta-worthy inspiration for your wedding styling, then look no further; this stunning shoot has it by the bucket load! Those showstopper pampas installations are just a dream and set off the dusky pink palette perfectly.
Pulled together by a super talented team of East Midlands wedding suppliers, we get the behind-the-scenes low down from the shoot from organiser, Kim, from Dreamboats and Carousels.
THE IMAGES ARE SIMPLY STUNNING, SO KIM, WHAT DO YOU THINK MAKES THIS SHOOT SO SPECIAL?
A Wild Pampas Dream conveys a powerful and feminine bridal look and wedding set up – it shows the freedom of contemporary wedding styling, and how identity, personality and style can be injected into your wedding from every element-the floral explosion of dried flowers and pampas grass, the elegant and modern cake, accessories for the bride (including a stunning gold crown) and accessories for the set up-a plush pink velvet sofa. Every detail contributes to the concept and the distinctiveness of the bridal look.”
WHAT WAS THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE SHOOT?
The inspiration for the shoot came from modern but feminine styling; showing the character and fun that can be injected into not only a wedding set up, but the overall bridal look. With a sheer Daalarna Couture gown with intricate floral detailing and long, ethereal sleeves, matched with a gold statement crown-a combination of antique and the contemporary-all of this contributed to the ultimate modern bridal Inspo for those who are looking for something a little different, to stand out, or to convey a free and wild personality. She is untamed and powerful from head to toe, surrounded in a sea of pampas prettiness!

Sustainability in the wedding industry is gaining traction as couples seek to minimise the environmental impact of their special day. From using local, organically-sourced materials for decorations, favours and tableware, to choosing suppliers who share eco-conscious values. When this shoot landed in our inbox, we simply had to share for those of you who seek inspiration for sustainability on your own wedding day.

We can be forgiven for wanting to float off into our dreamworld of idyllic weddings and not considering the environmental impact of our decisions for that one day. However, what if we told you that you could have your “green” cake and eat it; a sustainable wedding with all the latest trends. Sounds good, right?
Where do I begin looking for our perfect photographer, we hear you ask!
Here’s some top tips and trustworthy advice from the experts…
The variations of deep purple give real depth of colour and are a welcome change from the usual burnt orange and brown we see this time of year. Teamed with the hunter green, these colours are perfect for both indoor and outdoor as highlighted in the final images.
