Real couple Dan and Rhys take us on a masterclass of groom's fashion. They don a white groom suit, a black suit, a red suit and a pink suit. Not only do they nail every single look, but they also perfectly compliment them too. See them accessorise with coloured veils, boots and makeup. All surrounded by pink wedding flowers, neon signs by Recommended supplier Smooth Move Events, and the gorgeous backdrop of Prestwold Hall Barns.
'Crazy In Love' urban industrial, meets Crazy Eclectic. A liberation of colour clashes, embracing LGBTQ+ within the industry.

Real couple Dan and Rhys show us that grooms fashion can be anything you want it to be. From a black or white groom suit to a red or pink coloured suit. As long as you feel confident, go for it! That also applies to accessories, bouquets and makeup too. In fact, we'd love to see more grooms carrying bouquets, wearing capes or sporting their favourite sunnies.
The Hall Barns sit tucked within the grounds of the stunning Prestwold Hall Estate in Leicestershire which in 2021 underwent a simply stunning conversion to an event venue. The working industrial vibes of these 130-year-old farmland barns now play perfect host to an event space like no other. Introducing an elegant milking parlour, rustic slaughterhouse bar, covered ceremony courtyard and dining barn. Decorated in a considered interior using a neutral colour palette complementing the restored industrial working elements. All staying true to the building's unique history which dates back to 1889.
Helen at The Hall Barns teamed with the ever-creative Sam Bennett Photography on a mission to show how the neutral backdrop of the venue could also host a juxtaposition of colour clashes. Taking centre stage in their vision was, fabulous real-life couple, Dan and Rhys. They fully embrace fun, and diversity, and are crazy in love. Nickie Copper and Carlyle let their imagination run riot with the freedom of colour. They ditched classic boundaries, teamed with equal-minded explorers and indulged in a crazy world of imagination! The lineup of suppliers absolutely delivered and all embraced the vision.
The amazing Marco Hiden Floral Design used seasonal pink cherry blossom, mixed with lights, and dried grasses. The bold stationery Vicky at Inviting Writing designed and beautifully displayed also allowed us to allude to the glamour of LGBTQ+. We also embraced capes by Sash and Veil), headpieces by Love to Sparkle and full glamour makeup. When I say the mood board evolved, it exploded!
