With that in mind, we thought we’d leave you with something equally scorching to start you off. Today’s beautiful shoot at [Scotney Castle](http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/scotney-castle/) (styled with flair by Bellaboo and Beau) was captured by [Rebecca Douglas Photography](http://www.rebeccadouglas.co.uk/blog/). I am in love with everything about it, from the soft and beautiful lighting contrasting with the vivid, popping colours, to the swoon-worthy [Oh My Honey](http://www.ohmyhoney.bigcartel.com/) dress. The pictures speak for themselves, but I’ll hand over to the shoot’s fabulous coordinator, Clair of [Creative Brides](http://www.creativebrides.co.uk/).* “We decided to do a bridal photo shoot at Scotney Castle to co-inside with our ‘Vintage and Unique’ wedding fair that we are hosting at their venue in September. Scotney Castle is normally seen to offer a ‘traditional’ style wedding, but it lends itself to fun, quirky weddings too. With winding paths, little streams, giant trees and quirky hideaways, it’s bursting with great photo opportunities and is the perfect place for the odd toadstool!” Rebecca, the photographer for the shoot, also fell in love with the enchanting venue: “I am a fan of shooting in natural light and nothing is better than the golden glow in the few hours towards sunset. I knew we would be able to create some magical images in the golden glory at Scotney Castle and we were so lucky that nature delivered” *Images © 2013 Rebbeca Douglas Photography* **Credits** Coordination: Clair Hinge at [Creative Brides](http://www.creativebrides.co.uk/) Styling and props: Jenny and Laura at [Bellaboo and Beau](http://www.bellabooandbeau.co.uk/) Photography: [Rebecca Douglas Photography](http://www.rebeccadouglas.co.uk/blog/)Dresses: [Oh My Honey](http://www.ohmyhoney.bigcartel.com/) Flowers: [Joanne Truby Floral Design](http://www.joannetrubyfloraldesign.com/)Stationery: [Lynda Loves](http://www.lyndaloves.com) Cake: Ketta Shimm at [Flossie Pops Cakery](http://www.flossiepopscakery.co.uk/) Hair: Liz Bower at [Simply Beautiful Wedding Hair](http://www.simplybeautifulweddinghair.co.uk/) Hair accessories: [Sarah Roberts Bespoke Tiaras](http://www.bespoketiarasbysarahroberts.co.uk/) Make-up: Natialie Purves at [Make up by Natalie](http://www.makeupbynatalie.co.uk/) Groom’s Attire: [Marc Wallace](http://www.marcwallace.com/) Macarons: Claire Jury at [La Dinette](http://www.ladinette.co.uk/) Buttons: Amanda Williams at [Buttons Devine](http://buttonsdevine.tumblr.com/) Balloons: Sally at [Bubblegum Balloon](http://www.bubblegumballoons.co.uk/)s Car: Keith at [Paladins Classic Car Hire](http://www.paladinsclassiccars.co.uk/) Venue: [Scotney Castle](http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/scotney-castle/) Video: Sam Nesbitt at Three Little Pixels --- [Back to July 2013 in the archive](https://darlinglovelylife.com/archives/#m-2013-07)
