Running away from a busy lifestyle in the county of Shropshire in Shrewsbury is the gorgeous English wine estate, Hencote Estate Vineyard.
As soon as we drove through the gates it felt like we’d been transported directly to France. From the vineyards on the hillside, past luxury glamping lodges, a modern restaurant, wine, and cocktail bar to the beautifully restored Georgian hay barn. The whole estate feels like it was pulled directly out of the French countryside. This elopement styled shoot was an amazing mixture of vendors. We wanted to put together this wedding inspiration that had beautiful pastels, peach, and ivory with the enchanting colours of the Autumn.
Florist ‘Calisto by Christina’
“The beautiful styled shoot at Hencote Estate was one of the most stunning wedding shoots I have ever participated in. My vision behind the florals was to create perfect arrangements for a late Summer, early Autumn wedding. This was achieved by combining gorgeous pastels, peach, and ivory with the enchanting colours of Autumn. The autumnal foliage really brought to them to life.”
Stylist ‘Sage & Belle’
“The styling for this set up was to be elegant and timeless with a pop of vibrant colour to add personality and warmth. Coral was the chosen colour which we highlighted with the napkins, and the stunning florals. We accented this with tones of champagne (after all, we were at a vineyard!) in the tablecloth and chiffon runners, and added a luxury feel with hints of gold on the charger plates, cutlery, glassware candlesticks and tea light holders. The overall effect was one of elegance, warmth, and understated glamour.”
Cake Designer ‘Claire Taylor Cake Design’
“This cake design proves that an oversized rectangular base tier makes a statement, especially when it’s topped with a significantly smaller layer. The beautiful delicate sugar flowers are a welcome addition to any wedding cake shape, but they look particularly pretty on top of an all-white cubed confection.”
