All Things Bright & Beautiful
As Featured in Wed Magazine (issue 56 | 2023 | Devon)
Glorious colours and the beauty of nature take centre stage in this vibrant styled shoot at Wooladon Estate. A tucked-away idyll nestled amongst 500 acres of farmland and woodland on the border of Devon and Cornwall, the venue offers an enchanting backdrop for a close-to-nature wedding. Taking a completely flexible approach to weddings and allowing couples to be as creative as they wish in planning the day of their dreams, the estate makes the perfect canvas for this shoot.
"My concept was to reflect what inspires me and my photography whilst also bring together the very best of a selection of hand-picked suppliers. I wanted to promote my business origin," explains Hannah Jenkins of Rabbit House Studio Photography who photographed and coordinated the shoot. "My business name is a little different but has a great back story originating from when my rabbits came to my own wedding. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I love it when a couple tell me they are bringing their pets to their wedding day."
The carnival of colour carries from the blooms, glassware and ribbons of the tablescape to the floral arch, which makes a captivating ceremony backdrop with the gently draping willow tree across the still waters of the lake beyond. Stationary painted with florals and a playful buttercream cake echo the playful charm of the scene.
Donning Katie Woods Bridal's romantic and sustainable Devon-made designs, the bride is effortlessly beautiful with her locks dancing at her shoulders, while her groom wears light blue with floral accents for a modern country-chic look. The rabbit and the pony, however, are the stars of the show, bringing an adorable touch to a character-filled wedding immersed in the wonder of the natural world.

The Dream Team
This shoot was a HUGE project, not only for me with the concept and the coordination but from all involved, and the amount of planning, love and laughter that went in to seeing it through to completion was worth every second! Not to mention the fact that it made Wed Magazine! Each and every supplier involved in this shoot worked their little socks off to showcase the very best of what they do and it did not disappoint! In all honesty, the day was amazing, the team were such fun to be around, all helping each other and sharing ideas here and there and giving their input to make it a true collaboration. A year ago, this idea of promoting my origin and branding was just a thought lurking somewhere in the depths of my mind and to have it in print and film is a dream come true!
All of the suppliers are listed below with links to their sites too (just click on their name to open their website). I highly recommend each and every one of them not only on a professional level but also because you will have THE nicest people working with you to make your wedding day vision a reality and an absolute dream!
