Unveiling the Elegance: A Dark and Moody Black & Red Wedding at Keele Hall
Hey there, lovely readers! Today, I want to take you on a journey into the world of weddings that defy convention. Meet Maria and Angus, a couple whose love story unfolded so easily in-front of me at the Floral Hall Wedding Fayre in Tunstall, Stoke on Trent, not too far from where I work my floral magic. From the moment I spotted them, I knew we were a match made in wedding heaven, and their vision for a black and red-themed alternative wedding resonated deeply with me.

A Dark and Moody Affair
Maria and Angus had a clear vision for their big day – dark, moody, and far from the traditional white wedding. Maria stole the show in her stunning black wedding dress, radiating confidence and style. Her bridesmaids joined the theme with beautiful dark red dresses, while Angus, the dapper groom, rocked a deep red suit. His groomsmen donned sleek black suits, creating a striking contrast that set the stage for the day.
The Unique Buttonhole
Now, Angus was quite the discerning client, but I was up for the challenge. Crafting Angus’s unique buttonhole was a journey, one petal at a time, resulting in a single black flower that perfectly captured his vision. It’s moments like these that remind me why I love what I do.
Maria’s Radiant Flower Crown
Maria adorned herself with one of my beautiful Flower Crowns, a vibrant blend of reds and greens that complemented her purple hair perfectly. It wasn’t just an accessory; it became a symbol of love and unity as it made its way around for photos with the gentlemen at the wedding. Laughter and connection filled the air.
Bubble Machines and Fun Moments
To add an extra touch of uniqueness, Maria and Angus opted for bubble machines. These machines filled the air with bubbles and laughter, capturing the pure joy and fun that characterised their special day. Adrian Chell Photography expertly captured these moments, showcasing the energy and love between Maria and Angus.
Maria and Angus’ wedding at Keele Hall was a true reflection of their love story—a love that defied convention and embraced uniqueness. Their deep, dark theme came to life in a day filled with laughter, love, and unforgettable moments. Maria and Angus, forever bonded in love and celebration, left us with the belief that weddings are an opportunity to be true to oneself and create memories that will last a lifetime.
So, there you have it, folks! I absolutely loved being a part of this alternative wedding and would be thrilled to create more unique and memorable moments like this one!
