Soft & Natural Woodland Wedding Ideas

“The idea for a styled shoot evolved from a conversation between a group of creative friends. The plan was to bring together, compliment and showcase our individual talents – from photography to calligraphy – to share with engaged couples looking for a little inspiration. From this the Wedding Collective was born.

This was the first time we’ve all worked together. A collaboration that felt just right – an exciting and enthusiastic meeting of creative minds, with a shared sense of style and fun.

A beautiful garden in Nottingham provided a serene, natural woodland backdrop for our shoot. With a focus on seasonality we wanted to create and capture a soft, tonal, romantic stage for our bride, in the dream-like quality of late afternoon light. Simple, beautiful, but with a touch of the theatrical.

 

Matt’s photography is all about storytelling. His use of detail and strong emphasis on using the available natural light captured the atmosphere of the day.

 

Louise’s fluid and unstructured approach to floral design offered a wildly romantic selection of rustic pastels and greenery with roses and peonies billowing within textured greenery and foliage.

 

Elle created a collection of show-stopping cakes for a dessert table, combining seasonal flavours with elegant decorations of edible flowers and a little bit of patisserie magic.
