Collaborating with talented local vendors is always an exciting creative experience, and this Rust Manor House wedding styled shoot was nothing short of magical. It was planned by the incredibly talented Annie from Floriography, who also served as both the florist and model. This shoot was indeed a perfect blend of editorial elegance and vibrant color. Rust Manor House in Leesburg, Virginia provided the perfect backdrop for a wedding inspiration shoot that felt both bold and romantic.

A Grand Floral Statement for a Rust Manor House Wedding

The highlight of the shoot was undoubtedly the breathtaking floral installation cascading down the grand staircase inside Rust Manor House. Annie, as always, outdid herself with an abundance of lush, vibrant red flowers. As a result, they created a dramatic yet romantic focal point. Wearing her own soft gray Vera Wang wedding dress with delicate textured organza, she looked as if she had stepped straight out of an ethereal wedding editorial. In fact, the combination of the classic manor house setting with bold florals made every frame feel luxurious and full of life.

Capturing Elegance, Romance, and a Touch of Drama

For a moodier touch, we moved into Rust Manor’s stunning library, where the bride posed against an intricate wallpapered backdrop. Sasha Styles crafted a breathtakingly romantic floral bridal hairstyle. Makeup by Kiley Smith gave Annie a sophisticated makeup look that perfectly complemented the overall aesthetic. The rich tones of the library set the stage for intimate and dramatic portraits.

As the grand finale, we took the shoot outdoors for a breathtakingly cinematic moment. The bride, with her voluminous gown billowing behind her, ran toward the beautifully decorated exterior of Rust Manor House, evoking the spirit of a 19th-century romance novel. It was the perfect, whimsical ending to an already stunning Rust Manor House wedding inspiration shoot.

Every detail of this styled shoot came together beautifully, thanks to the hard work and artistry of our vendor team. Rust Manor House was the perfect setting for this blend of classic elegance and vibrant color. I’m so honored to have captured these photos! This shoot was a true celebration of creativity, and I hope it serves as inspiration for future couples dreaming of a wedding that feels both romantic and bold!
