Have you considered Australia? This inspiration will definitely plant a seed, it's even making us considering renewing our vows and escaping down under - when safe and appropriate obvs! </p><p>The shoot was planned to heavily feature the Jacarandas that line the driveway of the Venue <span style="line-height: 107%;"><font face="Calibri-Light, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></font><a href="http://www.branell.com.au/" style=""><u>Branell Homestead</u></a></span> - but unfortunately 2 significant hail storms went through the week prior and striped the trees. The team have paid tribute to the Jacaranda with a variety of purple tones from pastel through too deeper wine colours in every element, to be completely surrounded by blooms (even the chandelier!). </p><p><img src="../blogimages/61789435/pretty-and-punk0041-lilac-wedding-inspiration-staffordshire-wedding.jpg" style="width: 100%;"><br></p><p>This elopement is a nod to all the couples who married through the early stages of restrictions when numbers in Australia were limited to 5. There are little moments of celebration that would not have been possible in a full wedding celebrationlike popping that bubbly in a private setting! Our couple spent the entire day together, eating cake, sipping champagne and having a deconstructed pavlova to themselves Delish! </p><p><img src="../blogimages/61789435/pretty-and-punk0028-lilac-wedding-inspiration-staffordshire-wedding.jpg" style="width: 100%;"><br></p><p>With small numbers it allows you to wriggle the budget a little, to spoil or splurge on those things you might not have been able to before. Nadja of<u> <span style="line-height: 107%;"><a href="http://www.lesanssouci.com.au/">Le Sans Souci</a></span> </u>created a floral oasis she elegantly styled the afternoon tea reception as well, antique and unique pieces were included - blooming luxury! The sweet treats and cakes were the work of Katrina from <span style="line-height: 107%;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/cakehousechef/" style=""><u>Cake House</u></a></span>. Love is sweet, and on this day, it certainly was! The groom loves pavlova and the bride was there for the cake! </p><p><img src="../blogimages/61789435/pretty-and-punk0050-lilac-wedding-inspiration-staffordshire-wedding.jpg" style="width: 100%;"></p><p><img src="../blogimages/61789435/pretty-and-punk0049-lilac-wedding-inspiration-staffordshire-wedding.jpg" style="width: 100%;"></p><p><img src="../blogimages/61789435/pretty-and-punk0094-lilac-wedding-inspiration-staffordshire-wedding.jpg" style="width: 100%;"><br></p><p>Katrina created the sweet moments around their favourites, an elopement meant they had all the time in the world to sit down and enjoy them. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/RachaelDaviesCelebrant/"><u>Rachael Davies Celebrant</u></a><span style="line-height: 107%;"><font face="Calibri-Light, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></font></span> conducted the ceremony including moments of reflections written by the couple. Very few tears but so many smiles and laughs as they recounted special moments that led them to this day. There were elements which were hand crafted and created, the bridal gown by <span style="line-height: 107%;"><a href="http://sewmasterfashions.com.au/" style=""><u>Sew Master Fashions</u></a><font face="Calibri-Light, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></font></span> was made specially for the bride with her vision in mind. The earrings were hand crafted by <span style="line-height: 107%;"><a href="http://www.instagram.com/bronte.lvh.art" style=""><u>Bronte LVH Art & Design</u></a></span>, intricate details echoing our purple vibe.

Emma was effortlessly beautiful, a dream to look after and Dylan, dapper and handsome. All would not have been possible without our little slice of paradise in Branell Homestead. Situated in the back of Laidley, close enough to town but still far enough away. Far enough to be lost in the countryside and landscape views. They have the most spectacular sunsets!</p><p>Thank you so much to this incredible team for sending us such gorgeous escapism elopement vibes today - we are loving this beautiful romantic vibe!
