Let the Light Out: Dried Flowers Wedding Inspiration

In celebration of autumn’s arrival, I’m delighted to share this dried flowers wedding editorial photoshoot I contributed to. The shoot was devised and curated by brilliant Valentina Ring of The Stars Inside, and realised by photographer Carla Blain, alongside a team of innovative creatives. Intriguing, artful, and curious –  this wedding is unafraid of darkness, and a reflection of how the wedding day would feel, rather than how it would look. The images have the warm haze of a half-remembered dream, and the surreal twinkle of something you just glimpsed in the corner of your eye.

Here’s the hand drawn dried flowers wedding bouquet I created to feature within the shoot. The floral design is by Rosehip & Wren, who create exquisite dried flower wedding installations, button holes, bouquets and crowns. Founder Beth and I share a philosophy of creating floral artwork full of lasting memories full of nostagia and wonder.
