This one is for the stargazers! This winter celestial wedding shoot took place at Arnos Vale Cemetery and was sent into us by Leesha Williams Photography. Leesha was inspired by jewel tones and inky blues, wanting to create something romantic yet edgy. The cool colours and alternative wedding venue came together to create something magical!
Celestial Wedding Style- Dressed like a Star!
This GORGEOUS celestial wedding dress was created by BexBrides. We are in love with the plunging sleeves, sprinkled with stars! The bold makeup by Danny Williams MUA adds a drama to the look, softened with a loose fishtail plait by Hair By Amy Marie. The starry tiara by The Lucky Sixpence tops off the celestial look brilliantly. The bridal denim jackets by Truffle Stitch are the perfect way to stay warm whilst remaining stylish.
The dashing groom is rocking a suit by Dyfed Menswear, with a floral buttonhole. To top it all off, this tiny cameo from Coco the pug Is melting our hearts! She’d be the perfect little ring bearer for the wedding rings by London Victorian Ring Co!
Edgy & Romantic Venue Styling- Jewel Tones & Metallics
This stunning celestial wedding was styled by The South West Wedding Company. The table is comprised of jewel tones, golds and charcoals. The gold rimmed plates, cutlery and table runner add a luxurious touch to the look, against the plum tablecloth. The floral arrangements by The Petal Emporium are full of rich tones, using both blooming flowers and dried stems.
The monochrome stationery by White Cottage Weddings is edgy yet elegant, setting the tone for the day. Their celestial seating plan is an awesome idea, which can double as a photo backdrop. This styling is proving that white isn’t the only way to rock a wedding!
Celestial Sweet Treats
The unique wedding cake by Claire’s Sweet Temptations is a perfect addition to the celestial wedding, fitting in with the dark colours. It looks brilliant draped in fairy lights and surrounded by romantic candles!
Rue Luxury Gift Service provided this awesome gift box, crammed full of goodies! A box like this can be delivered to your loved one on their wedding morning, full of special treats! What a romantic way to start the day.
