Your East Midlands Wedding - Feb/Mar 2019 (Issue 30)

69 REGIONAL SHOOT Create your fairy-tale big day Happily ever after T here’s endless ways to bring your theme to life but this classic shoot shows how you can create a timeless look by keeping things simple, yet beautifully elegant. THE INSPIRATION Natalie Beniston, owner of Beautiful Arches, teamed up with a range of local suppliers to create this set of inspirational images. “Our aim was to show an achievable fairy-tale look that brides can easily incorporate into their own day,” she says. “I didn’t want it to be too trend-led so we kept it timeless and incorporated a simple colour scheme of white and gold, with a touch of sparkle.” LUXURY FINISHES The beautiful details show how you can add a touch of luxury to your styling with elements such as the linen, the ceremony arch and a thoughtfully presented cake table. “Arches create a focal point for the ceremony and make such an impact when used to frame your top table or cake table. You’ll have put a lot of thought into your cake, so you might as well show it off to the max!” says Natalie. “Heidi at Extra Special Touch designed a personalised monogram, which was embroidered onto the napkins for that wow factor. They were folded to hold the beautiful menus,” says Natalie. 
