People often ask me what constitutes a ‘Rock n Roll wedding’. To me, its never particularly been about the things, the stuff and the styling; hence why I feature such an eclectic variety of amazing weddings!
Rock n Roll brides have weddings that are punk rock and weddings that a pretty and feminine. They’re boho and natural, and they’re over the top and colourful. My readers have weddings that cost £200 and weddings that cost £20,000. They have DIY details and they have things that they pay talented artisans to create for them.
Being a Rock n Roll bride is not about how your wedding looks on the outside, it’s about your attitude on the inside. If you want to stick two fingers up to what the wedding industry says you should do, or should have at your wedding, then you are totally a Rock n Roll bride!
I adore this shoot. While it might not be the most ‘out there’ photo session I’ve ever featured, it certainly has to be one of the most beautiful. Wedding photographer Jesús Caballero told me all about his inspiration. “I teamed up with a wedding planner and a florist in Madrid to conceptualise a really intimate bridal shoot. Shot in a centric antiques house, the design was inspired in an indoor ‘vertical’ garden, a strong branded bridal dress and antique elements.”
“Ever since last winter we have been dreaming with the possibility of working on smaller and more intimate weddings. In Spain, the style and concept of weddings is usually so traditional. Our culture calls for formal and large family gatherings, big weddings. We started to imagine how perfect a really small wedding could be and so we came up with the idea for this shoot. We wanted it to feel cosy and full of personality.”
