Rainbow Wedding Inspiration with Epic Balloon Trees and Hot Air Balloon

An explosion of colour on the blog today with this bright and fresh rainbow wedding, set at a brand new wedding venue in North Devon, Tawstock Court is a Georgian country house with acres of surrounding lawns and woodlands, the perfect place for your big day, and this rainbow wedding theme complements the interiors of this beautiful venue. Her we catch up with the team behind the shoot who tell us all about how this rainbow wedding was created…

“It all starts with the decadent yellow ‘Morning’ room at Tawstock Court that gave us the inspiration! Tawstock Court, is a brand new venue here in North Devon. An 18th century manor house set in 32 acres of beautiful grounds and woodlands. “Our morning room bursts of bright yellow and when the sun streams through the windows everyone comments on how happy this room feels – hence we wanted to show just how much colour can enhance any wedding and create an amazing atmosphere.”

Styling – Do Me A Favour

“We used colours to compliment the yellow walls, of bright turquoise and shades of pink through all the decor highlighted in the ribbons, table decorations and balloons. Together everything popped with the natural sun light that floods the room. The unique and bespoke venue chosen lent itself to this incredible avant-garde shoot.”

Flowers

“Using bold colours and a mix of fresh, bright Gemini daisies and roses (including the fabulous coral ‘Miss Piggy’) The stationery used the idea of balloons and hot air balloons in particular. The colour palette helped to co-ordinate with the rest of the suppliers.”

Hair and Make Up

“The bridal hair and make up was based on the design of the headpieces, style of the dress and model’s hair. Styles ranged from soft and romantic to edgy and sharp, but with a commercial slant. Hair colours contrasted against headpieces to show them off to best advantage.”

“The gold leaf crown with tendrils of tiny flowers in turquoise, coral and pale pink were perfect for adding a touch of drama, yet still remaining pretty, feminine and bridal. The other headpiece consisted of vintage elements and gave the most beautiful, glimmering, pastel-colour sparkle. We also used some soft floral pieces in this shoot, the pink Serenity and aqua Zelenka petal pieces added a further touch of colour and sparkle to the day! The final finishing touch of jewellery were an antique pink Swarovski crystal heart necklace and earring set, and a turquoise framed glass necklace and earring set which both reflected the light and provided that lovely pop of colour!”

“The make up had a flawless base of airbrush makeup giving the skin a natural finish. Brighter pinks on the lips , with plum and coral hues, helped to really incorporate the colour pop theme!”

Flower Girls

“Why stop with one colour, when we can use them all? This was the mantra of Julia of Popsqueak Children’s Wear ” to find a lovely bright and vibrant fabric encompassing all the shades from the colour palette.” Creating reversible jackets, sashes, bags and hair pieces, these complimented the white cotton dresses made in a Rose and Hubble print, giving an understated charm. Whilst it is probably easier to create flower girl dresses from synthetic fabrics such as tulle and polyester, “I prefer to use cottons and silks which are less harmful on the environment. I also wanted to show that using natural fabrics can still be bright and vibrant and comfortable for little ones to wear all day and night.”

Ceremony

“The Wedding Ceremony at the heart of the day, with our celebrant Nixie, who wore bright pink also created a symbolic ‘Sand Ceremony’, and a plaited a multi ribbon ‘Hand Fasting’ cord. Lastly another symbolic idea was to ‘Jump the Broomstick’ into married life over a “beesom broom that I created using bright dogwood stems on a hazel broomstick and wrapped with ribbons too! I was absolutely delighted by the colour of the whole day, it would certainly be a wedding to remember!!”
