Set within 30 acres of enchanting woodland gardens, Burncoose Estate offers a spellbinding backdrop for an intimate celebration. This styled shoot blends boho accents with nature-inspired details to create an elopement brimming with romance and effortless style.
The historic retreat is home to a collection of spaces that can be tailored to every kind of wedding. Styled here for a relaxed and romantic elopement, the chic interiors of the house, light-filled orangery and sprawling gardens together evoke an air of timeless elegance.
With so many scenic corners to choose from, the couple wander from a handfasting under a foliage-clad arbour to whispered vows beneath a tree adorned with flowing drapes, before retreating to the orangery to seal their promises. Roaming the grounds in their seasonal splendour, they share a quiet moment in the woods, cut a single-tier cake and raise a glass of fizz during a secluded picnic for two.
Alongside the striking décor, the free-spirited fashions bring the scene to life. The bride’s first look pairs a flouncy short skirt and plunging sweetheart neckline adorned with lace appliqué; she later changes into a long A-line gown with fitted strappy bodice and botanical detailing. A soft chignon and a bouquet of cream and blush blooms complete her modern, romantic look.
The groom, not to be outdone, wears two equally dashing ensembles. First, an on-trend sand-toned outfit elevated with a floral tie and pocket square, finished with two-tone brogues. Later, he dons a dapper three-piece slate-grey suit with a polka-dot tie, brown leather loafers and a wildflower buttonhole – the epitome of modern rustic style.
