When Nick Baskerville planned this Styled Shoot, he wanted to the photos to inspire sophisticated style that had the elegance and grandeur of Bridgerton. He chose the stunning Ardington House to be the backdrop as it is “one of the most breathtaking venues available for weddings in South Oxfordshire and it seemed like a natural choice”.
Situated in South Oxfordshire, this exclusive estate boasts enchanting gardens, impeccable lawns and a private island for a unique ceremony, creating an ideal backdrop for your wedding day.

Each supplier perfectly executed a sophisticated and dignified style, from the flowers to the bridal gowns.
This beautiful floral embroidered gown from The Bridal Dress Company is a great way to tie in your wedding flowers with your bridal wear, making your look more cohesive. The plunging neckline and A-Line silhouette radiates confidence and femininity, and who doesn’t want to add in a splash of colour! The low bun hairstyle is really flattering with this bridal gown as it allows the dress to shine.
