For many of you today mark’s the first day of Spring – one of my favourite days of the year! The day you wave au-revoir to Winter and look forward to longer and warmer days, and I have just the perfect shoot to share with you to celebrate. Whatever weather you have woken up to today, this beauty is bound to get you in the mood for Spring…..

A delightful explosion of lush seasonal florals from Petals by the Shore in soft pastel shades, alongside some sweet vintage styling, form layers of exquisite beauty in this dreamy Spring wedding vision brought to life. The bride’s boho-chic look is super sweet, perfectly reflecting the relaxed and romantic style in a BHLDN wedding dress with a pretty sweetheart neckline, paired with loose curls and fresh, radiant makeup by Alison Harper & Company. I am utterly smitten with the delicate, feminine grace of the flower adorned writing table from Vintage Affairs LLC, complete with calligraphy by Sarah Bohl Designs.

Here with a few words about the shoot is fine art photographer Anna Kardos, who was behind the lens to flawlessly capture it all! “Watching our artistic vision come to life was so surreal and magical. Kelly from Petals by the Shore was really the driving force behind this shoot. She took my scatter-brained ideas, and turned them into something beautiful and coherent. And collaborating with so many wonderful people has opened a countless number of doors for me.  I want to thank all of the incredible vendors who helped with this shoot. I am indebted to each of you!”

Thank-you so much to Anna Kardos for beautifully capturing every single detail, and for being kind enough to let me publish her work here on Chic Vintage Brides. You can see more of Anna’s photography over on her website www.annakardos.com and by following her on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Pinterest. And I have to second Anna too, with a big thankyou to the whole creative team (who you will find links to listed below) for their part in creating such a vision of Spring gorgeousness!

As always if you loved this shoot and are looking for some more romantic Spring wedding inspiration I have a few suggestions of posts you might want to take a peek at before you go. If its more lush flowers you’re looking for, then there is this Romantic Spring English Garden Wedding Inspiration shoot, or for more modern-vintage elegance take a look at this this dreamy garden wedding inspiration shoot inspired by Provence, and for unadulterated Spring beauty, then this blossom-filled delight is a sight to behold!
