Winter Styled Shoot – The Wellbeing Farm

The Wellbeing Farm recently gathered together a team of suppliers to create a rustic Winter shoot. Winter Weddings are becoming increasingly popular with such a vast colour and texture palette to choose from. Here they chose cranberry tones, greenery, with that all-important dusting of snow for good measure!

The Wellbeing Farm take up the story from here “It was a
misty and moody December morning when the team arrived to unload and get ready
for this Winter styled shoot. There was glistening snow on the surrounding
hills making The Wellbeing Farm feel like a warm and welcoming hideaway – even
the resident alpacas weren’t brave enough to greet us upon arrival!

In true
British style, before the talented Taylor Made Hair and Sakura Bridal Make Up
had chance to work their magic on the beautiful bride for the day (model
Charlotte Cottam), the rain had arrived and had washed away what little snow
remained from the first wintery blast of 2017.

That however
didn’t dampen their spirits, and if anything encouraged them to highlight what
The Wellbeing Farm has to offer to create that cosy, comforting ambience so
highly desired when choosing to get married in a rural setting over the winter
months. Simon and Anne from Creative Camera were on hand to capture the shoot
and share their expertise and creative direction – they really are a talented
duo!

Our bride
wears the most enchanting dress kindly provided to us by Something Blue
Bridalwear. Named Lindsay by Rosa Clará, the dress was an extremely light and
elegant three piece ensemble that looked simply stunning in such a magical
winter setting. Paired with a beautiful stole from SoSasso our bride really did
look dazzling. A second dress also features; Alicia also by Rosa Clará.

Our groom for
the day (model Mason Tustin) wears suits provided by John Francis Formal Wear
& Suit Hire.

The feeling encapsulated is cosy Nordic hygge; think soft
blankets hanging over wooden rustic chairs, lining tables adorned in deep green
winter foliage with twinkly lights and pheasant feathers to capture that
rustic, farmyard setting. Flowers for the day were showcased by the talented
Michelle Hamilton at Love Rosie Venue Decor with some added tassel tail
balloons provided by Balloonsmith – just to add that element of fun.

If the barn
itself isn’t cosy enough, The Wellbeing Farm also have the practicalities
covered. Host to an additional converted barn (included for your exclusive use)
you can get toasty in front of the woodburner whilst sipping on mulled wine, in
a comfy chesterfield with blankets and cushions available for all. Combine that
with our heated tipi and outside firepit, you really couldn’t get any cosier if
you tried! Not forgetting the well loved ‘brew station’ and chef Karl
Popples infamous spiced sweet potato butternut squash soup – they really do
have it all covered and are wholly realistic to the challenges often faced by
the ever changing and ever surprising British weather system!”

Fresh from
their success of highly commended at the recent Wedding Industry Awards for
Best Countryside Venue, The Wellbeing Farm really do offer that alternative
choice for a fun, quirky and magical wedding – any time of the year.
