Just look at that bridal hair @bridalhair_by_nataliejane
Making Cheyenne‘s beautiful pale skin absolutely pop ✨
She loved orange eyeshadow, so we used it softly under the eye and it looked so lovely against her complexion 🧡
And can we talk about that dress?! Stunning from head to toe
Loved creating this look

Absolutely obsessed with Jodie’s bridal makeup 🤍
Stylish, simple, but sooo elegant -the kind of timeless look that never goes out of style.
If you’re loving this vibe, here’s what to ask your MUA for:
• Soft wing liner
• Matte eyeshadow
• Warm tones
• Minimal blusher
• Lashes in a winged-out style
Effortless beauty at its finest ✨

Venue @henhamweddings@jodie.suzannah2 👰🏼
A relaxed wedding day at Mulberry House begins slowly, with the morning unfolding in calm, light-filled preparation spaces like the beautifully renovated Alderney Suite. It’s the perfect setting to sip champagne, soak in the excitement, and ease into the day ahead. Charlotte & Luke created a truly special celebration of their love, surrounded by 22 acres of peaceful countryside, where wildflower meadows and ancient trees set the tone for something effortlessly romantic. Whether you choose an indoor ceremony in the elegant Copper Suite or say your vows at the lakeside gazebo, every moment feels intimate, scenic, and seamlessly connected.
After the ceremony, the day flows naturally into a relaxed drinks reception in the bright Garden Room and out on the lawn, where guests can wander the grounds while you capture timeless moments beside the lake and under the willow trees. With everything in one place—from the marquee wedding breakfast to the atmospheric evening celebrations—the entire experience feels smooth, unhurried, and beautifully considered. If you’re planning your own day, I’d love to hear all about it and share how I approach relaxed, elegant, and refined wedding photography and videography.
