Fresh Linens and French Lavender, Rustic Luxury Wedding Inspiration

They say a beautiful wedding is all in the details, and when it comes to this gorgeous wedding decor inspiration shoot, small touches can have a big impact.

We've been noticing a trend for crisp and classic wedding decor of late, and while we're still loving the OTT opulence of a vintage Gatsby wedding, or the patterns and colours of a whimsical DIY bash, there is something so elegant about fresh white linens, unfussy fragrant blooms, and deliciously simple sweet things.

And if that sounds like your kind of wedding, then you'll adore this chateau shoot by Claire Graham Photography.

Fabulous London photographer Claire Graham, was inspired to create this shoot after taking part in a film photography workshop in Italy with acclaimed photographer, KT Merry and incredible stylist, Joy Proctor.

We'll let her tell you a little bit more about the concept she shot (and styled!) herself, once she got back home…

I decided on a luxury rustic styled shoot that would include an element of DIY.

I sourced a lot of the table wear from local shops and collaborated with a local florist, stationary designer and cake maker.

For the setting I choose to set up in my father's garden which happens to be the old grounds for The Cedars which was the grandest country house in Lee, UK. The original mansion was called Lee Grove and dated from the early 17th century.
