When the plan was to have a bit of a moment getting your very own little person ready, until you remembered you’re raising a strong independent woman who don’t need no help from noooooo parent! 💁🏻‍♀️ @hawkstone_hall @hairbybethansteers @b_thebride_ @suzanneneville @papermoonbride @manoloblahnik @memoryboxfilms

Jess, my sweet sweet soul 🥰🥰🫶🏻 one of my absolutely beautiful brides at @hazelgapbarn last July! A day we spoke about for almost 2 years was finally here and what a beautiful day it was 💖 What a truly incredible bride you made! I know you cared so deeply for every person/detail/supplier on your day and it absolutely showed 🥹 you and your girls made us all feel so welcomed and appreciated which in turn always makes for such a gorgey day 💖🥰 Jess requested my signature soft glam bridal look consisting of a light/medium base with highlighted cheeks, a neutral shimmer eye and a half lash which suited her so much!! Jess doesn’t wear a lot of makeup day to day so my focus was just the right amount with the correct placement which is always my go to method 🙏🏻 Thank you once for being such a kind soul, I look forward to following your journey as the douds and I really wish you many years of happiness 🥰✨ xxxxx Stunning updo by the lovely @hairby_kerry Assisted by my amazing @nevemckernanmua Photographer @monkeymole Dress @theweddingshopcolchester Venue @hazelgapbarn I used products from a variety of brands to achieve this look @lorealparis @makeupbymario @jordanaticiacosmetics @rarebeauty @tatti_lashes @charlottetilbury @narsissist @maccosmeticsuk @hauslabs @maybelline @diorbeauty @armanibeauty @fentybeauty @lookfantastic

Veils, private lakes, a few minutes away from guests, and wonderful little pockets of light making fleeting appearances. I can think of much, much worse ways to spend my afternoons ❤️ @styallodge @abigailprincehair @laura_whitehurst_mua @evalendel @jjdesignsbridal @flower_lounge @greatdayfilms

Blue skies, green trees, jumper & coat free weather, and a car full of (stolen) sweet table contents. 2026 wedding season, you are well and truly underway!! 👰🏼🤵🏼‍♂️ @crippsandco @hazelgapbarn @danielwatsonfilm @the_bridal_rooms @elyseebridaldesign @hairbyhannahtaylor @laurenyatespromua

Capturing a pair of lovers taking a stroll in the late Italian sun, all whilst consuming my body weight in fresh pasta and limoncello. It’s a tough job, but someone has to do it. 🍝🍷

If you’ve ever been told you need to do a complete outfit change to pull off two looks on your wedding, Abbie is here to give you a masterclass on how that is oh so very, very wrong. 🥂💃🏻 @swancar_farm_country_house @leahbaileyhair @makeupbylillymonroes @beaubellesbride @theweddingveilshop @morileeofficial @thistleandphlox @ratherlovelyfilms

Show me the most utterly gorrrrrrrrgeous bridal prep you ever did see, but roll it back @horningtonmanor @hairbytosetti @thecostachic @mwlbride @noraevebridal @shindig.event.styling

How do you want to spend your wedding? “Hiking our way to the top of a castle, to enjoy the sunset whilst overlooking the south of England” …..okay. Guess we can make that happen! @farnhamcastle_ @hollyannbridal @isabellagracebridal @millanova @lucybennettbridalwear

Having the realisation that it’s been 3 months and 14 posts since a champagne tower last appeared on my profile. Who even am I anymore? Promise I’ll spend the rest of the year bombarding Insta with an unrelenting stream of champagne towers. You’ve been warned… 🍾🥂 @middletonlodge @emilybridalwear @amyelliotthair @hannahattermua

“Dad has asked if we’d like to use his car for the wedding” Sometimes dad has a VW Golf, sometimes he doesn’t. This one most definitely fell into that latter category!! @hever_castleweddings @meltemhair @lizziemua_brides @flourestudio @lovelybridelondon @grandeur.events @floatingcastlefilms

I willl never ever evereverevereverever get bored of being blessed with time, light, and space at bridal prep 😍 @theorangerymaidstone @shesaidyesbridalhair @mwlbride @paulaflorist
