A styled wedding shoot in a secret garden

Back in September last year, a team of super creative people gathered at a secret location in East Sussex. A privately owned home with incredible gardens. How lucky were they to be able to use it for the day?! Formal gardens, teamed with wild flower gardens, secret pathways, manicured lawns and a custom built water feature which had to be lifted in by crane. They were spoilt for choice for locations to shoot.

Hannah says "We were joined by Sev from The Hepburn Collection who was our super hairstylist, Daniel K Palmer for fabulous make-up, LK Lily who created the florals, styling by me and of course Sarah Gawler who captured it all beautifully.

Aiming for an intimate garden scene, we teamed dresses from Clinton Lotter, Claire Pettibone and Rivini with accessories from Liberty in Love, Jenny Packham and What Katy Did Next. Our groom wore suits from Favourbrook and A Suit That Fits.

Our eye catching centrepiece hanging over the table was a beautiful wire candle chandelier from Rayment Wire, decorated with garden roses, fern and jasmine. Absolutely beautiful vintage china from Roses All Over and a delicious butter cream tiered cake from Tempting Cake.

I'm thrilled to be able to share this shoot with you today and a big thank you to You and Your Wedding for featuring it."
