WHIMSICAL CASTLE WEDDING INSPIRATION

WHIMSICAL CASTLE WEDDING INSPIRATION

What bride out there wouldn’t want to get all dressed up in her dress again and have a little more fun?

At least that’s what we hoped. One day Anne – one of our photographers – set out to find this bride. Several queries were sent out, and to our surprise…everyone asked said YES! They all wanted to jump right back in their dresses! The idea of choosing just one… well it was tough. But after a difficult selection process, we ended up with not one, but five brides!

So how’s this for a great inspirational shoot (not to mention – an awesome idea), five models, five photographers, and five vignettes…. all in one super cool location!

This shoot was a beautiful collaboration of some truly amazing Southern Ontario wedding vendors. We focused on bringing the Canadian charm of water, woods, and rustic stone ruins together with the soft elegance of ribbons, peony flower bouquets, sweet peas, astilbe, lily of the valley, and more, with vintage touches and hints of soft pinks, grays, teals and golds. All this surrounded by nature was absolutely stunning.

The location selected was the old Harris Mill Ruins Castle in the heart of Rockwood Conservation Area in Rockwood, Ontario. It gave us the space we needed to create five vignettes and show brides that something out of the ordinary can make a unique reception location.

Our beautiful models, Emily, Erin, Jamie, Katarzyna and Teresa, were all recent brides of our vendors. Each had completely different weddings and they were extremely excited to be a part of a style shoot. A chance to wear your wedding dress again… why not! Each bride wore their own gown, shoes and accessories. Makeup stylist Rebecca gave her brides a soft whimsical appeal, while makeup artist Tamala created a hard edgy look. Our hair stylists Michelle and Kaitlyn created beautiful styles incorporating ribbons or flowers.

We hope you find an abundance of inspiration in this shoot, from the ridiculously gorgeous floral designs, romantic stationery pieces to the amazing cakes, our talented stylists, makeup and hair stylists and, of course, our amazing photographers.
