Downton Abbey, styled shoot

A couple of months ago I had the pleasure of being part of a styled shoot for the Nuptial Network and the theme was Downton Abbey. The age of lords and ladies, high tea, pearls, lace and elegance, makes for an ideal theme for a wedding. The soft colors and loose flower arrangement leave a suggestion of romance everywhere. Have a look at some of the pics of the flowers done by Unforgettable Events.

Vintage West Meets East

Surprise Weddings....what reality shows are made of. 

Yet this surprise wedding was a romantic gesture of note! The bride knew when she would get married and in which country. She chose her own dress. The rest was orchestrated by her groom and Unforgettable Events.

He flew his bride to Cape town, South Africa, where his grandparents were married in the twenties. He wanted to incorporate elements of South Africa and the 20's, to remember them. However, since the couple are living in Taiwan, he also wanted to incorporate elements from the east. And so, Proteas and Orchids found themselves side by side in a small chapel in a Cape Town forest, where an English Groom finally wed his Spanish Bride under the African sky.
