Autumn might be in full swing but we miss those tropical vibes. This modern styled shoot with repurposed vintage dresses, ombre veils, colorful pampas grass, neon lights and an edgy industrial backdrop, is the perfect inspiration for couples wanting to add a touch of color to their weddings.

Castle View Farm & Stables is a working farm outside of wedding season so the barn, courtyard and fields provide a number of different options as a wedding venue. To match the modern, tropical palm beach vibe, we opted for a color palette of pinks and orange built upon a base of lush green tones. This allowed for accents of neon pink and orange as well as large, oversized palm leaves. Splashes of gold against more natural tones. The pinks and oranges also allowed the team to incorporate more fun elements and get some truly unique touches woven into the day.

There were some eco-friendly upcycled elements showing how to really embrace this idea into a wedding. These included the vintage dresses from the talented Bexbrides and hand painted shoes from Inanna Bespoke Shoes. The dresses by Bex Brides were original 1970s dresses updated with more modern necklines or made into contemporary separates. Bex also provided a range of accessories which really fitted with the idea of adding color to the day. Becca from To Be Adorned provided a pair of eco raffia earrings which had been carefully crocheted by hand and embellished with pearl beads upcycled from vintage costume jewelry. The white mesh backdrop was previously shop fittings and was upcycled with a splash of white spray paint.
