Oh, do we love a well-planned, glamourous styled shoot, but when it’s as incredible as this one, we just had to share it with the world! This could very well be the most glam, fun, sophisticated and flirty shoot we’ve seen – behold, “Something Bold, Something Blue!”
Recently featured in the Spring/Summer 2024 issue of Today’s Bride, this shoot features tones of blue, peach and gold that sparkle together, making the venue pop in the most magical way. Subtle decor elements – casually draped fabric and strategically placed candlelight – soften the brickworks backdrop. Everything from the florals to the lighting work together to pull off a visual masterpiece.

Here’s how photographer Misha Lee describes the shoot:
The concept behind this styled shoot was to break free from traditional wedding norms and embrace the bold and unexpected to exude an air of daring elegance. In the realm of Midlands weddings, creativity knows no bounds. Recently, a group of local suppliers joined forces to create an extraordinarily styled wedding photoshoot with the theme “Something Bold, Something Blue.”
The aim was to craft an experience that was both unusual and magical, capturing the essence of love in a truly unique way.
Every detail was thoughtfully curated to add a touch of magic. The ceremony backdrop featured a cascading mix of dried and fresh florals, creating an ethereal effect against the modern winery. The bride’s ensemble defied convention as she dazzled in a daring tulle gown adorned with intricate beading, accentuated by a timeless hair and makeup look. The groom complemented her boldness with a modern two-tone suit, perfectly tailored to match the theme.
The reception showcased a blend of elegance and edginess. Blush, cream and powder blue tablescapes were adorned with organic elements, romantic candles and whimsical pastel accents. A decadent wedding cake stood as the pièce de résistance, with a sculptural element adding finesse and drama.
The skilled photographer and videographer brought out the essence of this magical affair. Using unconventional angles, moody lighting, and imaginative composition, they captured the couple’s love in a series of breathtaking images that told a story of daring romance and enchantment. The “Something Bold, Something Blue” styled wedding photoshoot exemplified the power of collaboration and creativity.
The local suppliers involved succeeded in crafting an extraordinary experience that pushed the boundaries of tradition and showcased the allure of the unconventional. By embracing an edgy and magical aesthetic, they provided inspiration for couples seeking a wedding that truly reflects their unique personalities and desires. In this realm of limitless imagination, love knows no bounds, and the result is nothing short of spectacular.
