Bride and groom smiling - Picture by Mirrorbox Photography

Today we are featuring the beautiful wedding of Claire and Grant, photographed by Mirrorbox Photography. This gorgeous vintage inspired wedding took place in Anstruther Town Hall, which gave the couple a blank canvas that allowed them to be creative with their decor. Styled with vintage tableware, bunting, cool favours and beautiful flowers, they really brought the venue to life.

“We both decided straight away that we wanted to get married in Anstruther as it was where Grant proposed. The obvious choice for us was Anstruther Town Hall; it’s a fabulous building with lots of quirky features and a lot of flexible space. This allowed us to be creative and imaginative with our ideas.

“We love all things vintage, and as the wedding dress I had picked was vintage inspired, it was a theme we carried throughout the wedding.

“We chose wild flowers for the table centrepieces displayed in a mixture of glass jars and bottles, mismatched crockery, pretty lovebirds and bunting, and a VW camper van to take us to the church. I wore my gran’s pearls and a beautiful vintage hair grip given to me by my older sister. Grant also wanted to give a nod to times gone by and had 3 piece suits tailor-made for himself and his best man.”

A 1920's Themed Wedding in the Santa Cruz Mountains - Picture by Paco and Betty

The wedding of Joann and Jo, planned by Details by Design Events, is so quirky we just had to share it with you. Photographed by Paco and Betty, the wedding took place among the Redwoods at Nestldown in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California, where Joann and Jo went all out creating a 1920’s fashion inspired wedding which looked amazing. They even had paper boys delivering programmes to all the guests!

“The theme for the day wasn’t originally a theme, but sort of a plethora of things we’ve always been drawn to. When everything came together, it just made sense somehow. We have always been interested in DIY and antique/vintage things, whether it be art, music, or even old ways of doing things like typewriting or handwriting a letter. I guess you could say that our goal wasn’t to do anything that hasn’t been done before, but to try and create a timeless memory by gathering things that have always been inspiring to us.

“The most memorable moment for us was probably seeing family and friends in one place; everyone happy, laughing and just having a good time, realising that something like that is very rare.”

And the winner is… Jonny Draper Photography!

Silhouette of a bride and groom kissing in front of a beautiful sunset - Picture by Jonny Draper Photography

Congratulations to Jonny Draper Photography, the winner of our Picture of the Day vote for April. This beautiful picture received the most votes from our readers, and is the fourth picture to go through to the Picture of the Year vote.

Taken at Sandhole Oak Barn in Cheshire, the picture was the result of Jonny and the couple being prepared to seize the perfect moment. Jonny told us how the picture came about…

“Carly and Ian hadn’t booked their February wedding for the weather, but somebody, somewhere, was smiling on them. The day was stunning; their Champagne reception at Sandhole Oak Barn in Cheshire was outside (on the 25th February!), and as the daylight started to fade, it looked like we might get lucky with a sunset.

“I mentioned this to Carly and Ian and they were VERY excited. They instructed me to grab them whenever I thought the light was best, even if it meant interrupting their wedding breakfast (I love clients like that – who really care about their photographs and are excited about what we might get as a result of their commitment).

“Unfortunately the moment did come in between courses, but I knew exactly where I wanted them in order to get the shot, so we literally popped outside for 2 minutes and the result is what you see!”
