Contemporary vintage style at Merriscourt

Chosen Wedding Fair present a photo-shoot that was brought together by a collaboration of talented suppliers who are friends or exhibitors with Chosen Wedding.

A collaboration between Kiki at Chosen Wedding, Paola de Paola Photography and Emma of Ladybird Flowers resulted in this inspirational photo-shoot at Merriscourt in the Cotswolds.

The team wanted to showcase a contemporary styled vintage wedding.  “Our last shoot was all about fun, freedom and frolics, this one in contrast is about simplicity and the quiet moments before the big day – time and contemplation spent with friends, the relationship between ladies, the intimacy of friendship and of course, the gorgeous dresses and accessories. Simple, romantic pretty and absolutely within an affordable budget,” says Kiki.

“We set a soft romantic and slightly rustic style and colour palette complemented by the gorgeous flowers from Emma at Ladybird flowers, macarons from La Dinette and marshmallows from the London Marshmallow Company.

“The dresses worn are both contemporary and classical vintage from Federica Bruno Couture and Days of Grace Vintage, shoes from Emmy London and accessories from Vintage Button Bridal and Glass Oyster. Lingerie and garters by Pompadour Lingerie.

“The shoot took place at the Cotswold hidden gem that is Merriscourt, a place so full of beauty, English country charm and tranquility we just didn’t want to leave.”
