Flowers

To add to the nature-sque vibe we envisioned, we without a doubt wanted dramatic bouquets and specifically, a floral hair-comb for our beautiful bride. Rachel from House of Dandelions really took on board the theme and provided us with two bouquets, two buttonholes and a hair-comb as examples of what you could with such a moody colour palette. The hair comb was a stunning part of the bridal look and something you don't see a lot of brides wear as much! The mixture of class and floral really brought the shoot to life and was a major highlight.

As photographers, Will and Celle Chamberlin quite rightly stated "how good is it to have some more representation of black brides and couples? - We very much need more diversity in the wedding industry." We couldn't agree more and are so pleased to be able to share with you Purity and Eliot's Devonshire Terrace London wedding, who also snuck off to St Dunstan in the East with their photographer for some couples portraits. Plus, an article dedicated to inclusivity in the wedding industry titled Black Brides Matter.
