Looking for big-day inspiration? Check out this shoot from local suppliers

We adore this regional shoot on page 59 of the current issue!

Carolyn Smith from AMB-Vision, based in Bowness-on-Windermere, recently teamed up with some of the region's finest suppliers to create this beautiful set of images.

“We wanted to create a rustic wintry shoot,” says Carolyn. “We based our ideas around the picturesque Paddock Barn in Kendal. It's a stunning countryside venue with breathtaking views, which made the perfect backdrop.”

The suits were provided by Maya Maya in Kendal. “With their help, we were able to create a smart and on-trend look for the male models,” explains Carolyn. “The blooms were provided by Flowers by Arrangement. They encapsulated everything that we wanted, and the result looked gorgeous.”

The cake was created by Isabella, who's just 13 years old. “She created a classic two-tier bake that tied in with our theme perfectly,” recalls Carolyn. “We were so impressed with it, and it tasted great.”

Makeup by Lauren Poole and Aqua the Salon worked together to style the models' hair and make-up.

“Willow & Fig Wedding and Event Styling dressed the venue, and My Bellissimo Designs created the beautiful stationery,” adds Carolyn. “The Bridal House in Dalton-in-Furness provided us with fabulous dresses that really brought the theme together. All the suppliers were amazing, and the models were an absolute delight to work with.”

Here are some of our favourite images and a list of the suppliers involved.
