Set in the heart of West Sussex at the stunning Farbridge wedding venue, this styled shoot brings together some of the best local wedding suppliers to create a look that is effortlessly chic and contemporary. With a crisp monochrome palette softened by organic textures, the vision was all about contrast—modern yet timeless, bold yet romantic.

Bringing this vision to life was Lucy Davis Photography, capturing every stylish moment with a natural, light-filled touch. The seamless coordination and design were led by Keshira Creative Events, who blended modern elegance with subtle, understated luxury.
