Few places captivate me with their romantic landscape, architecture and not to mention delicious food, quite like the…

When fun loving Texan newly-weds Pam and Shane describe their day as an ‘intimate, creative country wedding’ I don’t think they quite do the beauty and charm of their celebration justice.

As my last inspiration board was inspired by a shade from Pantone’s picks for Spring 2016, I thought for this week’s I would look back to their Fall 2015 palette for a colour perfect for an Autumn affair, and re-discovered the beautiful shade of blue-grey that is ‘Stormy Weather‘. But this time, rather than imagining…

Today’s beach wedding inspiration shoot is filled with such breathtaking beauty and romance; and captured so perfectly in her inimitable fine art style by Chic Vintage Brides‘ fave Wendy Cooper, that it’s hard to find the words to describe it, so I don’t think I will try!
