An elegant autumn wedding at Wotton House, Surrey
Here’s some beautiful colourful inspiration from an autumnal wedding shoot I took part in last autumn. It was all about embracing the season at the gorgeous country estate wedding venue Wotton House in the Surrey Hills. Autumn is the season of warm rich colours and an abundance of delicious looking fruits and seeds which was incorporated throughout the wedding styling and details.
Leigh designed a beautiful bouquet and floral arrangements from seasonal British grown. And Vaani brought in the flowers together with fruits to create a beautiful cascading design for the gorgeous wedding cake.
The story behind the shoot was of two lovers whose pen pal relationship, that spanned across the Atlantic ocean, grew into a deep love. I scribed these letters in two of my calligraphy styles to form the beginning of our story. The wedding suite featured an elegant script in a design that flowed across the page and was printed on luscious handmade paper. With an outer wrap with the couple’s initials encased in a floral wreath design.
The colour palette featured a deep teal and yellows contrasted against shades of blush and coral. To evoke the feelings of the warmth of the autumnal sun warm metals like gold and brass were used throughout and rich velvets and ribbons were used to add a depth of texture.
Storme created an effortlessly romantic bridal look adorned with beautiful floral jewellery and hair accessories by PS With Love.
