If a summer wedding is on the agenda, but a theme or concept for the wedding decor is currently still eluding you, panic not. This contemporary summer wedding editorial, ensconced in the Cotswolds, brings with it a haul of modern wedding vibes, all of which may help whet your appetite in the decor department. Beautifully captured by Cotswold-based wedding photographer, Wild Fern Photography, at a unique workshop experience by fellow photographer, Nicola Dixon (and a handpicked selection of talented vendors) this is heart-stopping modern wedding inspiration at its very best.
Peppered throughout with, what Meg from Wild Fern Photography notes as “French Chateau vibes” this contemporary affair takes place at the stunning event space and venue, The Compton Gallery. Enveloped in the idyllic countryside of the Cotswolds, this truly enchanting venue is not only picture perfect, but its historical architecture plays host to some extremely sumptuous artwork, making it a highly unique venue to exchange vows within. And, with multiple space options on offer, including The Gallery (with standing room for 120 people), an adjoining courtyard, and room for a sit-down meal option (for 40 people) or buffet (for up to 80 people), it’s a venue that allows your inspiration to run wild.
And, if you have a penchant for clean lines, modern textures and standout style that makes an impact, the fresh and enticing vibe of this editorial will immediately seduce. Styled by Blonde Army, a creative event studio and stylist, the editorial is a great example of how keeping to a simple, more natural colour palette (and exploring this palette with an array of explosive textures and botanicals) can be extremely impactful. It’s also a great example of how to make sure your wedding day decor choices sit in harmony with your venue. The playful textures and elegant white colour palette that leads this editorial sit beautifully against the iconic Cotswold stone of the venue, while the integration of sleek acrylic signs and contemporary stationery draws through a truly modern edge.
