There are SO many things about this shoot that I LOVE but the most endearing thing is how Chloe and Jot look at each other.

An early start - I'm talking SUNRISE - created a lovely warmth and framed this woodland shoot so well.


Here at Cambridge Vintage Bridal, my ethos is to show how a vintage wedding dress can look like the future and not the past. I'm keen to showcase heritage pieces through a modern lens for eco-minded brides and glamour pusses.


And this shoot does such a great job of showing how an original 1950s shirt dress can look totally current on a modern bride in a rustic setting.


A brilliant team, led by Thyme Lane Photography set the scene...

I love how the natural light dances on the hat.

Earthy tones, burgundy ink, silk ribbons and a cake to die for!

The flowers are simply stunning too - love the texture and tones of the bouquet.

Bow tie and button hole anyone? If you are thinking about a bow-tie, see what the Vintage Suit Hire company have to say.

And when it all comes together in a shot like this? SO BEAUTIFUL.

These two are just a dream.

If you were wondering about that hat from earlier...

So very festival bride!

This sheer 1950s wedding dress moves beautifully and has a full skirt for twirling.

Thinking about footwear? Boots, all the way for this look!
