href=\"https:\/\/www.matthewoliverweddings.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matthew Oliver<\/a> was inspired by Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong&rsquo;o and the organic beauty of Hampshire&rsquo;s New Forest when he designed this high fashion bridal shoot.&nbsp;Bespoke wedding gowns by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bahbua.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bahbua<\/a> and a regal color palette brought the class and glamour, while Matthew Oliver&rsquo;s&nbsp;fantastically surreal styling brought an unexpected darker edge to the&nbsp;shoot.<\/p>\n<p>Here&rsquo;s a little insight on designing the shoot from the planner himself, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.matthewoliverweddings.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matthew Oliver<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p><em>Once we had the location and idea, then we designed the shoot around elegance&nbsp;and class, we wanted to show two parts of a wedding, the formal dining then the&nbsp;evening party! &nbsp;Both parts were set-up in two different areas of the New Forest,&nbsp;an open plain for the formal dining with a simple yet well-dressed set-up and a&nbsp;dark open forest for the evening party which showed a messy set-up instead of a&nbsp;clean elegant setting! &nbsp;We even used dresses to fit these two separate locations&nbsp;and set-up&rsquo;s! &nbsp;Colour wise we went for regals, like golds, dark reds, purples and&nbsp;greens.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-553947\"
