We’re going down to the woods for the most magical bluebell wood wedding inspiration brought to us by Ideal Imaging Photography and Buds Floristry.
The Springtime magic is enhanced by not only the pops of blue in the landscape but the special golden hour light. The result is a dreamy, ethereal set of images that really enchant and inspire.
Think perfectly styled tablescape in the open glade, whimsical dresses, sublime flowers and even a super cute pup! Enjoy it all.




With inspiration from the shoot developing from a simple conversation in a friend’s bluebell wood in rural Hampshire, I couldn’t be happier with the beautiful photos that have been produced. Using the creativity of a wonderful group of suppliers, we really caught the boho elegance we were all looking for.
After a challenging year of Covid-19 restrictions, the opportunity to get suppliers together to create some magic and produce promotional images seemed like a great idea to us all. The private bluebell wood of Janette Dorset encapsulated magical boho elegance and made for a wonderful setting for our shoot.

Stunning seasonal flowers such as stems of poppies, double tulips and forget-me-knots grown by Rebekah from The Headley Flower Garden, were arranged by myself at Buds Floristry into a deconstructed arch along with bud vases for the table, a loose-style bouquet and two floral garlands.
The flowers sat beautifully around our stunning wedding table, styled by Janette Dorset, who displayed props and tableware in muted tones provided by Ella at The Surrey Wedding Company, and chair sashes from Events For U.



Our models, Ella Dorset and my 4 year old Labrador Roxy, were styled by Holly from Holly and The Ivory, who chose the perfect dresses for Ella to bring to life our vision of natural boho elegance. Holly worked closely with Debbie Rees Bridal, who kindly provided the most gorgeous whimsical dresses, using designs from Allure Bridals and Justin Alexander.






Two stunning hairstyles were produced by Antonia, of Elle Au Naturel, who created a natural wave under the floral crown, followed by a relaxed chignon and flowers dotted throughout. With a flawless glowing base, pink shades and gold shimmer on the eyes, Antonia created a natural yet glamourous look.

Our wonderful photographer, Alistair at Ideal Imaging, chose to hold the shoot in the light of golden hour in order to create the perfect back drop. From delicate close-ups, to striking full distance shots, the images he has produced are all so beautiful and truly bring our vision to life.
The atmosphere in the bluebells wood was so magical that we decided to finish the evening with prosecco and cheese by candlelight – what a perfect day, with a wonderful group of suppliers!






















Oh wow! So stunning.
A massive thanks to the fantastic creative team below for sharing these mesmerising bluebell wood wedding ideas.
