The vintage wedding is very much a key look just now. It’s timeless, elegant and very feminine. So today we bring you this picturesque blog from Carrie O’Connor at Budding Brides with an inspirational wedding shoot at Ballyseede Castle, Tralee in Ireland’s beautiful green County Kerry. Photography by Tara Donoghue.
Vintage Wedding Shoot, Ballyseede Castle, Tralee
I’m a lover of all things vintage and this became the theme of the shoot. The entrance to Ballyseede was adorned with lanterns decorated with fir cones and moss and the front door with a romantic heart wreath made with frothy gypsophilia.
Being an animal lover it was only to be expected that Arthur the Irish Wolfhound would be the star of the show and boy did he love it (along with my beautiful daughter Sarah!)
Some of the table and mantel decoration in the hotel.
Bouquets of the day were a vintage carmen rose and a black and white bouquet of roses, anemone and brunea berries.
Wedding Wish Trees are a modern twist on the traditional guest book. Have your guests write their thoughts and wishes for the new Mr. and Mrs. and tie onto the tree. These can then be put into a frame or a book and make a beautiful keepsake! Trees available to hire or can be made to order.
