Modern Luxury Tropical Styled Shoot at The Barn at Avington

This styled shoot is taking us to a tropical bridal paradise, with the most luxurious modern styling! We absolutely love the contrast of the crisp white tones with larger than life foliage and cool neon signs. Warning: scrolling down will definitely make you want a sequin dress for the wedding evening party! Francesca, of Primrose Weddings + Events, tells us how couples can recreate the look...

Concept

The concept behind the shoot was to create a fresh approach to a tropical themed wedding. We paired lush dark green foliage mixed with soft fluffy white flowers, crisp white and silver table setting with a spark of neon.

Inspiration

We wanted to provide inspiration for couples wanting to create a modern, fresh approach to a tropical themed wedding. Below is a more detail that we provided to festival brides:

Luxury tropical 

We used lush dark green foliage mixed with soft fluffy white flowers. Crisp white linens and silver accents. Elegant tropical designs on the cake and stationery.

Silver Tones

A lot of styling currently uses gold/copper, but we wanted to use a cooler tone to tie in with the crisp white of the linens, and add a bit of sparkle to the more simple table styling. 

Day to Night

We wanted to show how styling could be taken from day to evening. For the bridal look, we had a traditional dress and elegant accessories in the day. For the evening look we had a sparkly dress with rework of makeup and accessories - ready to party the night away!

Neon

Cool, chic, and stand out signage for weddings.

Statement Florals 

We wanted to show how statement floral installations and neon make an incredible pair. Also, how an installation over the dinner tables can make a space feel more intimate. With a statement installation like this, you don’t need so many flowers on the tables and can instead focus on beautiful candles that add to the atmosphere.

Luxury Tropical 

We used lush dark green foliage mixed with soft fluffy white flowers. Crisp white linens and silver accents. Elegant tropical designs on the cake and stationery.
