A Woodland Wedding to Remember: Louisa and James' Fairy tale Day

Louisa and James' wedding day was a beautiful blend of elegance and sentimentality, set against the backdrop of Louisa's childhood home at Balbeg Estate in Straiton, Ayrshire. The ceremony held outdoors in the same forest where Louisa played as a child added an enchanting touch to the special day. When Louisa came to me seeking a custom hair piece and earrings to complement her stunning bridal gown, I knew this wedding was destined to be magical!

A Custom Hairpiece with Leafy Inspiration
Louisa's bridal dress featured delicate leafy lace detailing, providing the perfect inspiration for her custom hair comb. We crafted a simple yet elegant piece with silver leaves, pearls, and a hint of sparkle to accentuate the natural theme of her wedding. The comb sat beautifully in her hair, adding a touch of nature-inspired glamour to her bridal look.

Elegant Earrings to Complete the Look
To complement the hair comb, we designed long drop earrings featuring marquise-cut simulated diamonds. The earrings' graceful design echoed the theme, adding a touch of sophistication without overwhelming the overall bridal aesthetic. The combination of the hair comb and earrings created a harmonious and timeless look that was both classic and contemporary.

Bridesmaids and Their Miniature Hair Combs
Louisa's bridesmaids were not left out of the custom creations. Each bridesmaid received a miniature version of Louisa's hair comb, allowing them to match the bride while retaining their unique style. The bridesmaids were thrilled with their stunning sterling silver jewellery, which they could wear beyond the wedding day.

A Ceremony in the Forest
The outdoor ceremony at Balbeg Estate was nothing short of magical. The lush forest setting, filled with the memories of Louisa's childhood, created an intimate and heartfelt atmosphere for the couple to exchange their vows. The ceremony décor, with its natural elements and soft colours, perfectly complemented the woodland setting.

 A Reception to Remember at Dalduff Farm
After the ceremony, the wedding party moved to Dalduff Farm, a charming wedding venue known for its rustic elegance. The evening was filled with music, laughter, and dancing as Louisa and James celebrated their new life together with family and friends. The warm ambiance of the venue, combined with the joy of the occasion, made for an unforgettable night.

Louisa and James' wedding was a celebration of love, family, and the beauty of nature. The custom hair pieces and jewellery added a personal touch that tied together the couple's unique style and the enchanting setting. It was a day to remember, filled with joy and cherished memories.
