A retro-styled marquee wedding shoot at The Tipis at Riley Green

A few months ago I was delighted to take part in this fun retro-styled shoot over at the wonderful Tipis at Riley Green, a unique purpose-built tipi marquee wedding venue near Preston. There were a huge amount of talented people involved and it was so lovely to have the chance to meet and work with them. The brief was bright tones of pink, orange and red, so I designed some vibrant bouquets in this colourway, including Missy Piggy roses, red scabious and sugar-pink campanula as well as the very retro daisy-like tanacetum and pampas. I also added a fuchsia hydrangea to one bouquet to differentiate it from its counterpart, and I loved the finished look - it really made a statement! These images by Natasha Coco aka Cocobella Photography capture the fun vibe of the day with our brides.

I also made a third bouquet for a second model couple, pictured here by Westview Photography, and I loved the contrast of white button tanacetum in this one. The whole retro look came together with hair, make-up and bridal gowns as well as the flowers, and what better venue for a groovy shoot like this than a tipi! Thanks so much to everyone who took part and helped to create these gorgeous photos.
