A Rock The Frock Shoot & A Perfect Picnic: Rachael & Aaron

Written by , Posted in Rock The Frock

Are you ready for something slightly different and wonderful today?

This is the first EVER ‘Rock The Frock’ photo shoot to have  featured on Bespoke Bride and as far as rock the frocks go this is pretty darn awesome!! Rachael and Aaron have received a fair bit of coverage on their wedding already being featured in magazines and popular wedding blog Rock N Roll Bride.

We were thrilled when photographer Craig Dearsley asked if we would like to feature this cool couples rock the frock shoot. The couple married at the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth in May of last year.

 Rachael and Aarons wedding day was heavily inspired by heavy metal music, tattoo culture and baroque decor, so this shoot is quite a comparison as the backdrop chosen was a beautifully sunny woodland in Berkshire with pastel coloured streamers, picnic blankets and deck chairs.

The couple used an all star wedding vendor list; Honeypie Boutique for Rachael’s dress, Janine Basil for her headpiece and one of our fave’s and of course Craig’s beautiful wife Veronica Dearly created their bespoke paper goods and stationery.

So…Twihards, this one is for you!

For now we would like to take a look back at the year we have had to celebrate all that made us what we are today…

A Rustic Woodland Bridal Shoot at Yosemite

Written by , Posted in Bridal Fashion, Destination Weddings, Photography, Styled Shoots

As we may have mentioned (once or twice!) we were lucky enough to be a part of three separate bridal shoots while we were up in Yosemite, one of which we are going to be sharing with you today!!

We wanted the theme around this photo shoot to be very woodland based and rustic which worked out perfectly for the area we were in.

We hope you enjoy this inspired shoot as much as we enjoyed doing it! 

To make this photo shoot extra exciting we had an additional photographer and a make-up artist! Both Mariel and Amber are super talented and we would highly recommend them for weddings!
