This shoot transports you into a dreamscape of ethereal romance with a fusion of feminine love and modern, edgy style in the beautiful garden setting of The Holford Estate. The details in this shoot are what we fell in love with! From delicate floral arrangements and ornate tablescapes to the accessories on the bridal outfits. The planning and styling is incredible!

The Holford Estate
The Holford Estate is a truly unique location because of its many beautiful, romantic areas that set the perfect tone for the concept behind this editorial shoot. The Holford Estate is a family-run farm steeped in history, with the Tudor-esque Holford Hall at the centre of the beautifully landscaped gardens, orchards, topiary-lined lawns, and Acer trees. There’s also the impressive, unique brick Barn and the clear span marquee flowing out onto the lawn overlooking the horse paddocks, which is ideal for capturing the gorgeous golden glow at sunset. Every wedding celebration held at this venue is treated and planned as if it were the family's own. We love that personal touch!
Garden Wedding Elopement
The inspiration for this shoot came from the late Summer colours of British plants and trees ahead of the transition into Autumn, with some subtle pops of colour remaining and deep autumnal hues creeping in. They worked with a rich yet soft, warm palette of terracottas, peaches and dark hues of chocolate to add a deeper, edgy vibe, which reflects the season. The overall earthy, warm tones are not only natural, beautiful and soft, but they feel in tune with the location and concept and look stunning when paired with taper candles and shimmering glassware. Metallics are one of our favourite decorative elements of the autumn season.
Nothing beats a golden hour photo in our eyes…it looks like the couple is literally glowing with love!
Collaborating with passionate, incredible female suppliers makes my heart so full. Each supplier has their own unique qualities and talents, which often go underestimated or undervalued, and it's important that they are recognised for this and their contribution to our phenomenal wedding industry.
