An Intimate Elopement: To The Moon & Back

An Intimate Elopement: To The Moon & Back

As night falls and the moon illuminates the sky, Brogan and Ben meet in secret at Willow Tree Barn for an intimate elopement.

Brogan wears a custom made ivory silk jumpsuit with a plunging neckline and tapered trousers. This was accessorised with a delicate bridal cape adorned with gold stars that was designed and created by With Love and Lace.

Her makeup is glamorous with berry red lips, smokey eyes and delicate stars placed on her inner and outer eyeline. Her hair is swept into an elegant high bun and dressed with delicate lunaria from the garden of eco florist, Xyris Botanicals. Her bouquet is a dramatic cluster of dried wedding flowers, miscanthus and lunaria.

Ben wears a three-piece navy blue suit from Tuppers Tux and a constellation print bow tie by Blue Eyes Bow ties finished with a Xyris Botanicals buttonhole.

The 18th Century Grade II listed barn is beautifully styled by The Little Wedding Warehouse. The newlyweds dine alone in an intimate table setting with luxurious peacock chairs draped in faux furs. The table is dressed with tableware by A Touch of Vintage, celestial stationery by Fawn and Thistle and lined with delicate velvet and crystal decor.

The couple sample their illuminated wedding cake by Newington Cakes before dancing under the stars.

A handmade rustic moon seat and Xyris Botanicals hanging cloud of lunaria and miscanthus set the perfect backdrop for the romantic couple shots that were all beautifully captured by Luminess Photography.
