A Vintage Inspired Wedding at Trevenna

In November I had the pleasure of photographing James and Lana’s gorgeous vintage wedding at Trevenna Barns in St Neot, Cornwall.

Being a lover of everything vintage, Lana wanted to put elements of her favourite era, the 1940’s, into her wedding day and chose a stunning retro looking, long, sequin embellished fitted dress. 

She completed the look with 1940’s hair with an accompanying hair comb, which was styled by Red Hairdressing Liskeard, bright red lipstick and nails. She also wore a gold locket with photographs of her late grandparents enclosed and her late grandmother’s ring.

Lana’s beautiful wedding make-up was applied by beauty specialists Hands and Tans, Liskeard.

Her wedding flowers were put together by herself and consisted of a small posy of bright red Gerbera to match her lipstick and nails.

Lana’s bridesmaids all wore rich, garnet coloured, knee length dresses with sequin detailing and carried similar posies to Lana but with white Gerbera.

James looked smart in a tweed three piece, dark blue herringbone suit with a white shirt, a burgundy tie and brown shoes.

Lana and James took their vows in the Garden Room which was simply decorated with Gypsophelia tied to the wooden chairs.

As a professional designer and jeweller, Lana hand crafted the couple’s beautiful wedding rings herself. 

Lana also made their wedding cake, proving that she is quite the creative and can turn her hand to just about anything!

After the wedding ceremony James, Lana and their guests enjoyed warmed homemade cider and canapes outside in the grounds of the barns followed by a seated wedding feast, which was served back in the Garden Room.

Before the food was served, James and his band performed a song for the wedding guests and during the meal, a recording of Lana’s late grandfather playing the organ was played in the background.

James and Lana’s couple time shoot was taken within the grounds of Trevenna, where the couple enjoyed the late afternoon sunshine.

Here’s some of my favourite images from their day…
