“The Untold workshop for photographers, was all about romance, femininity and fine art.”
“I wanted to use the rustic space of Woolas Barn wedding venue in York, and elevate it to something really soft and whimsical, with a Renaissance inspired edge.”
“Sarah from Stories Of Events and Emma Cox Floristry were the perfect team to bring the vision to life.”
“Sarah’s use of soft flowing fabrics in the table and the styled areas pulled everything together with a beautiful romance.”
“Emma is the floral maestro and used an abundance of ranunculus, tulips and roses in pinks, mauves and browns to create two beautiful climbing installations, two dried clouds for the table and ceremony space, and two incredibly detailed bouquets.”
“The Katya Katya London gowns really pulled the concept together.”
“We chose dresses that had a lot of intricate detail, in the sleeves, the tiers and the lace to add a bit of luxurious maximalism.”
“Likewise, Saint Beth’s earrings and headpieces added to the beautiful finishing touches.”
“With hair and makeup we kept the makeup glowy, with hints of pink and maueve, both the girls looked dewy and beautiful. For hair it was texture and detail!”
“The cake and stationery featured beautiful floral detail, and in the same ongoing colour palette of nudes, pinks and browns!”
“The team created a beautifully cohesive, romantic and organic vision.”
“Both couples were real couples and had an authentic energy and connection.”
