A Mid-Summer Nights Dream

Here in the petal shed, we are often asked by photographers, bloggers and stylists for confetti to be sent to use in inspirational photo shoots. We love sending our petals off and seeing what wonderful things can be done with them.

We recently sent some to Ela at Bo-Chic Weddings and Events who wanted them for a Mid-Summer Nights Dream wedding inspired shoot. Ela kindly sent over the images from the shoot and they are truly stunning, perfect for some inspiration if you’re planning a woodland/natural themed wedding.

The brief

We were asked for a mixture of petals to fit a Magical Shakespearian vibe meets enchanted woodland with wild detailing. The colour palette was berry, fuchsia and mossy green with hints of blush and gold.

We sent our Candy Floss delphinium petals and our Damson Wine rose petals to match the brief, which in their words “worked wonders in the photos”.

Having fun with confetti

The photographer, Matthew Bishop, captured the confetti perfectly. They had lots of fun attempting to time the throwing of confetti (something we have still yet to master when we do our own photo shoots). Ela said “the confetti got everyone laughing and created some truly magical moments.”

They had fun throwing confetti in creative ways; we love the photos of Faye (owner of Woodland Weddings Ltd where the shoot was done) and her little girl Lila.
