A team of local suppliers were finally able to come together to create this stunning set of images

When this styled shoot landed in our inbox, we just knew our lovely readers would adore it. To find out more, we spoke to the photographer Anthony Crothers, who tells us: "Sarah Meyrick and I met a few years ago while working on a creative portrait shoot. Since then, we have worked on several shoots together and came to realise that we make a good team. We decided to arrange a themed bridal shoot to help showcase our talents. We then set about looking for a venue willing to allow us to use their facilities. We were delighted when Charlotte from Mounton Brook Lodge let us use the lovely venue for the whole day. We've made new friends that were happy to supply dresses, flowers, cakes, a car and accessories. We also had some wonderful models that were a pleasure to photograph and work with. With our plans being disrupted by the COVID-19 restrictions, we all felt it was important to have an opportunity to show what we could achieve together. Everyone involved put themselves out and worked hard to make it a success, and it was truly a collaborative effort."

RSVPing 'YES' to multiple weddings? Here's how to budget!

Attending weddings can be a joyous occasion, but it can also be expensive, particularly if you're invited to more than one over the course of the year. Costs such as new outfits, travel and accommodation, and gifts mean the overall expense of attending can quickly add up. Duncan Fortune, Head of Commercial at Tesco Bank, says: "Wedding season can be a significant expense for households. Planning ahead and setting a dedicated budget for celebrations can help spread the cost over several months, allowing people to make the most of the celebrations while keeping their finances on track."
