Today is perfect timing to share this styled photoshoot led by the lovely ladies of Honey and the Moon Photography. Inspired by the seaside village of Whitehead in Co. Antrim, a quaint Edwardian town of a bygone era that has been maintained in all its original glory, the duo embraced vintage style with a modern nautical twist! Styled with high street finds, lots of creativity and beautiful blooms this is how you do a wedding with plenty of style on a budget...

It's officially July and Summer is in full swing at the One Fab Day office (despite the grey clouds!) as we celebrated with our 'Summer Soiree' last night! Today is perfect timing to share this styled photoshoot led by the lovely ladies of Honey and the Moon Photography. Inspired by the seaside village of Whitehead in Co. Antrim, a quaint Edwardian town of a bygone era that has been maintained in all its original glory, the duo embraced vintage style with a modern nautical twist! Styled with high street finds, lots of creativity and beautiful blooms this is how you do a wedding with plenty of style on a budget...

Pops of colour against soft muted greys and creams bring the playful seaside feel to the groom's look, while showing the weathered feel of the coastal village.

A ruby red pop of colour runs through the whole look of our bride-to-be, with playful red tulle lining the vintage inspired gown from the high street. The gown is complimented with red shoes, scarlet lipstick, ruby red nails and a very sweet birdcage veil completing the vintage inspired look.

The bouquet stole the show with a beautiful array of corn flowers, bluebells, yellow daisy, sea holly and red carnations, in keeping with the nautical theme.

We are loving the groom style in this shoot! All sourced on a budget, the groom's look is from the high street and accessorised with items from eBay. Keeping the look along the nautical theme he wears a soft grey blazer and dark navy trousers teamed with funky red braces, a patterned bowtie and a fun floral boutonniere.

The quaint town of Whitehead brought lots of interesting backdrops to the day with retro signage, an authentic rail station and super sweet shop fronts.

A big thank you to Jessica and Karolyn of Honey and the Moon Photography for sharing their seaside inspired shoot with us at One Fab Day. Models Christian and Lucy looked vintage chic with playful pops of colour along the way - there was plenty of romance in the air and I'm not surprised as they're a real life pair of lovebirds!
