Dewsall Court is the kind of venue that feels like it’s been plucked from the pages of a romantic novel. Tucked away in the Herefordshire countryside, this intimate estate brings together heritage charm, lush gardens, and a warm, grounded energy that makes it a dream backdrop for couples looking to infuse meaning and style into their wedding day. As a wedding photographer, I was instantly captivated by how beautifully Dewsall Court blends nature and architecture — a setting that invites creativity, yet never overpowers.
The styling for this Dewsall Court wedding was inspired by bold romance, tactile textures, and the quiet opulence of old-world design. We paired a rich, moody red palette with delicate ivory and sage tones to create contrast and depth — a visual love letter to couples who want both drama and elegance on their big day.
The Styling & Decor
At the heart of the design was a sumptuous draped tablescape, layered with soft ivory linens and flickering taper candles for an intimate, candlelit atmosphere. Red velvet textiles spilled onto the floor, contrasting beautifully with modern, garden-style florals arranged in silver vessels and scattered across the table ends. Overhead, chandeliers adorned with wild branches and seasonal blossom created a canopy of natural beauty.
The ceremony was set outdoors, framed by a ruined stone archway and bursting with floral abundance. From white tulips and wild greenery to crimson amaranthus and poppies, the setting was a painterly expression of spring in full bloom.
Fashion Moments
The fashion was a masterclass in contemporary romance. Our brides wore soft, form-fitting dresses with ethereal draping, sheer sleeves, and modern silhouettes that felt timeless yet fashion-forward. The grooms opted for classic black and white tuxedos with crisp tailoring and bold boutonnières — understated but incredibly chic.
Floral Artistry
@myprettiesuk created a floral wonderland, artfully balancing structure and freedom. From cascading greenery to artichokes and tulips nestled within the table design, every detail felt like a nod to nature’s wild elegance.
