Back in June 2023, I had the privilege of styling my stunning bride Anneke for her beautiful minimalist, modern wedding, located in the heart of London. Marrying the city’s vibrant energy perfectly complemented her unique vision. Her minimalist wedding in London was a celebration of love, style, and individuality.
Set against the backdrop of London’s iconic charm, the entire wedding was nothing short of magical. The modern aesthetic of the ceremony and reception spaces provided the ideal canvas for the bride’s timeless style to shine. As she walked down the aisle, the combination of her stunning gown, flawless hair and makeup, and serene confidence created a truly unforgettable moment. It was an honour to play a part in such a beautiful love story, crafting a look that will remain as timeless as the memories made that day.
The morning preparation is when things start to feel real. You start to become anxious yet excited as this day is your special day that you will remember forever. Finally tying the knot with the one you love, trust and want to spend the rest of your life with most.
