A colurful flamingo wedding to spread joy!
Believe it or not, this flamingo wedding shoot was inspired by lockdown! With rainbows popping up everywhere and communities coming together, the team were inspired to create something joyful! Here’s what wedding planner Amy Roberts told us:
“With this year’s wedding season becoming non-existent, we wanted to put a smile on everybody’s faces by exploring epic colours in food, flowers and balloons. The flamingos were an accident, but we think Florence and Fred stole the show in the end!”
I think it’s safe to say the team succeeded!
Summer garden party rainbow extravaganza!
Who said wedding food has to be boring? Grazing tables are awesome ways to make snacks look even more beautiful! They can be decorated any way you like and can make an awesome focal point if you go all out. We’re a big fan of these colourful flowers in eclectic glass bottles, next to the tall rainbow candles and funky pineapples! Pair some awesome wedding tables with a balloon backdrop and a unique wedding cake, you’ll be guaranteed to wow! This colourful flamingo wedding is beautiful because of all the detail! The watercolour wedding stationery and quirky tableware are the cherries on top, tying the styling together and continuing the theme.
There’s no such thing as too much colour – if you keep your styling consistent, you’ll create a fresh, cheerful wedding look!
