Your West Midlands Wedding - April/May (Issue 79)

INDUSTRIAL CHIC Be inspired by this modern shoot at Iron House Images courtesy of Story Cabin Wedding Films Michelle and Amy from The Wedding Bubble tell us more about how this set of images came to life: “Iron House is based in the heart of Birmingham in the Hockley district of the city. Home to the famous Jewellery Quarter, the Iron House is surrounded by original Victorian architecture, which can be seen at the venue’s entrance and follows through to the bare brick walls and ironframed windows on the inside. Inspired by our love of the city and its industrial qualities, we wanted to show the raw beauty it can create as an alternative backdrop to a wedding. Our concept called for wild, unstructured florals and candles as a contrast against the harshness of the space, and we had the perfect florist and stylist in mind to bring this to life in Little Garden Flowers and Junie Poonie. “We were keen to use a real couple for this shoot rather than models, and after being contacted by Sarah and David, we knew they were the perfect pair! They had, unfortunately, had to cancel their 2021 wedding due to COVID-19 and were super excited to be involved and this came across in the images and video captured by Story Cabin Wedding Films and RM Wedding Films. We used gorgeous outfits for both the bride and groom from TDR Bridal Birmingham and hair and make-up by Sarah Russell. From Kimmies Kitchen treated us to an incredible two-tier cake for the shoot, which as well as photographing beautifully, was the most delicious treat for the team to enjoy whilst wrapping up at the end of the day!” 51 REGIONAL SHOOT
