Set at Howth Cliffs, in Dublin, Ireland, these dark boho rust and green wedding ideas are sure to leave you feeling inspired.
Imagine this, a couple dressed in their finest attire, perched at the top of dramatic clifftops, swearing their love for one another. Their hands are fastened together, they read their own vows and seal their union with a kiss on breezy heights.
They then celebrate at a table adorned with rust, emerald green and black decorations, bursting with blooms, coordinating stationery and a modern cake. It’s all demonstrated below so beautifully in the most stunning images by Julie Clarke Photography in an editorial shoot planned and styled by INFUSION.
Do enjoy all the details as well as the whole vibe, won’t you?


As an American photographer living in the UK, I realised that couples don’t have the freedom to elope or use any beautiful natural landscape for their weddings.
So I reached out to wedding planner Infusion Weddings, who I found through a Facebook group for styled shoots so that we could put together a really beautiful styled elopement in Ireland since it is legal to get married anywhere you like there.




Our hair and makeup artist Jessica Gemma inspired the location as she was visiting Ireland and Scotland, but didn’t want to take on the full planning of the shoot.
I happily volunteered and with the help of Sandra from Infusion Weddings, we recruited the rest of our team!



I had already done a very classic warm boho shoot last year, so this year I wanted to involve the rich greens and blacks as a nod to Ireland’s iconic color of green.
We decided to make this theme “dark boho” which we pulled off with the dark green accents, the bold rust colors, even down to the bride in her doc martins paired with this beautiful flowy wedding dress from Mizz Rio.




Our team came together wonderfully and made this vision better than I could have imagined. The whole vibe was a gorgeous, rich, elopement setting.




The stationery by Wellwood Wedding Stationery was perfectly spot on to the theme as well as the flowers by Wildfeather Event Styling with her wild flower arrangements!
The cake was so beautifully made by Lilia Tirgoala and tasted even better!



Oh, what a dreamy gown?!






Love this dapper groom’s style. The polka dot accessories work so well.




Such a breathtaking setting for a ceremony, with striking views. Wow.








How lovely is this boho bridal hairstyle?









Goodness, how beautiful! And so joy-filled too.
A big thank you goes to the amazingly talented team below for sharing with us these dreamy rust and green wedding ideas.
