Alice in Weddingland Bridal Shoot

Written by Emily, Posted in Styled Shoots

OK so the idea of an Alice in Wonderland wedding is nothing new, they have become a popular theme for weddings as tea parties made their way back onto the scene, but I have to admit they never grow old. There is something so magical yet a little crazy about the story of Alice in Wonderland. We were ecstatic when Ellis from Ellis Wedding Shows contacted us to let us know that she was going to be organising a Alice in Weddingland shoot.

We popped along on the day to see what was going on and was amazed to see so many creative ideas, from a three tier flower display in teacups to brightly coloured cupcakes and macaroons. There were stripey tights, top hats and a pair of beautiful blue shoes that both myself and Jess fell in love with. Whimsical clocks and furniture were dotted around the set, the makeup artists also had fun painting on key holes and creating some pretty damn awesome hairstyles.

This shoot has so many great ideas for a wedding, I promise you will be completely inspired…

Wednesday Wedding Inspiration: Pretty Paris, OOh Là Là!

Written by Jessica, Posted in Be Inspired

I haven’t been to Paris since I was about 13 and even that was a drive through and onto Austria which means I can honestly say that I’ve never experienced that certain ‘je ne sais quoi’ about Paris…but I sure as hell intend to! After all, it’s the city of romance right? And can you imagine getting married there?! Sheeeesh. It would be beautiful.

So what would a Paris themed wedding actually look like I hear you cry?! Well, you know that classic scene on Bridesmaids where the wedding shower is Paris themed? Yep. That’s what I’m picturing. Minus the best friend hissy fit though (obviously keep the pink lemonade…and maybe that chocolate fountain…)

Wednesday Wedding Inspiration: Tattoo & Ink

Written by Jessica, Posted in Be Inspired

Show of hands who follows Kat Von D on instagram? We sure do, the woman is amazing. Her artwork alone is stunning, not to mention she’s super hot! We totally saw her once in Hollywood and did the classic ‘that girl looks loads like Kat Von D…omg…omg it’s actually Kat Von D‘ like a right pair of losers! ha! Anyway, more to the point, tattoos are art and if you have them, they are a huge part of you! So why not incorporate them into your big day?

Get ready for some funky jewellery, inspiring cakes & even a tattoo alter!

Wednesday Wedding Inspiration: Earth & Vegetable Garden

Written by Jessica, Posted in Be Inspired

I may be going a little crazy here and I’m definitely not known to eat all my vegetables in life but I’ve got in my head that having an earthy/vegetable themed wedding could potentially be really cool! Think about it for a second….those deep greens and vibrant coloured food goodies could really brighten up the day instead of using flowers! Plus gardeners and vegetarians alike would probably love it and needless to say no one would go hungry…

Earth Vegetable Garden

It’s perfect for the soil mates out there! (I’m here all night ladies & gents!)

Wednesday Wedding Inspiration: It’s Mint To Be!

Written by Jessica, Posted in Be Inspired

The last few weeks of Wednesday Wedding Inspiration have been wacky and wild! We featured Dr Seuss, Comic Book and even bold Geometric themes…but we know that those styles (as awesome as they are!) won’t float everyone’s boat! That’s why this week we thought we would focus on one of the most popular shades of pastel…mint.

Mint Colour Scheme

Whether you decide to go for mint green, mint blue or both, it’s clear that this colour scheme is a whole lot of pretty and fun!

Wednesday Wedding Inspiration: Colourful Dr Seuss

Written by Jessica, Posted in Be Inspired

You may think I’m mad for featuring this,
but trust me please, don’t give it a miss!

I’ve searched high and low for Dr Seuss fun,
and I’ve found inspiration to show how it’s done!

Mature it is not, but colourful it is,
and if you want something different then give this a wiz!

Wednesday Wedding Inspiration: Fun 50′s Retro Theme!

Written by Jessica, Posted in Be Inspired

50s Fun Retro Wedding

Ahhhhh the 50′s! An era of big bouncing skirts, Elvis and colourful milkshakes lining the bars of diners!

Using an era for a wedding theme is an absolutely awesome way to customise all of those special details of your day, think about it for a second…polka dots, coca cola, vinyl records and popcorn! Uhhh YES PLEASE!

We’ve gone with a red and duck egg blue theme for this inspiration board but it would work just as well by mixing up the colours! Yellow and pink would be super pretty and like…totally….50′s housewife darling!

Enjoy! x

Wednesday Wedding Inspiration: Twilight Time

Written by Bespoke Bride, Posted in Be Inspired

This week people are going CRAZY for Twilight and we have to admit…we’re no exception!

With the release of the film this week we thought what better board to create than one based around the beautiful woodland wedding in Twilight? We’ve even thrown in a few movie stills for those (few) that didn’t see the big day!
