Countryside chic at Yeoldon House Hotel

The primrose lawns, pretty vistas and sweeping staircase of Yeoldon House Hotel sets the scene for a same-sex wedding shoot that showcases the best of north Devon's wedding industry. 

"It's an exclusive venue where they welcome and value diversity; beautifully situated on the banks of Devon's River Torridge, it boasts glorious views of the river with picturesque gardens and uniquely styled guest rooms," says Vicky of Do Me A Favour UK, who co-ordinated the bridal wedding shoot with the North Devon Wedding Network.

Vicky dressed the grand staircase with foliage from the venue's own gardens to intertwine with metallic lanterns and glass cylinder vases full with pink tones and lots of pillar candles. Five different gowns are showcased throughout the shoot, ranging from delicate spaghetti straps and illusion V-backs to all-over floral lace and sequins, complemented by golden flower tiaras and relaxed hair vines. 

The brides' make-up was inspired by the style of the hotel "being a bit vintage and country chic", says make-up artist Michelle, with a burgundy tone for the lip. Taking inspiration from blush tones with hints of rose gold and emerald green, the hotel's light, ambience and elegant charm are shown off to full effect.
