Your Hampshire and Dorset Wedding - March/April 2022 (Issue 91)

On the hunt for the perfect setting for an intimate wedding, how about a pop-up dome? The latest exciting innovation to hit the local wedding scene, Lucy Fosh of newly launched Dome Sweet Dome Dorset put together this styled shoot to show off the beauty of the domes as alternative wedding spaces. “I wanted to not only showcase how our fabulous domes can be set up for a cosy wedding reception, but also collaborate with some of our talented local suppliers.” A beautiful Dorset thatched cottage garden provided the perfect spot to conjure up some micro magic. Drawing inspiration from nature, autumn foliage, berries, pumpkins and seasonal colours set the tone. “As we offer a bespoke styling service as well, I wanted to show this aspect of the business to its full potential. I created an autumnal design concept using local suppliers and focusing on sustainable décor,” explains Lucy. The tables were all handmade in the area from wooden pallets and the furniture and accessories were mostly second hand and upcycled. Lucy made a giant circular wreath to hang above the table, using foraged foliage, pampas grass and dried cut flowers bought locally. They also styled a beautiful bridal suite with a big, comfy round bed, furniture and accessories. With an electric simulated wood fire heater to keep you toasty in the winter, what could be more romantic than sleeping under the stars? 72
