A sustainably styled Autumn wedding shoot at Sanctum on the Green

Organic, raw, feminine, calm, hand-made, sustainable, seasonal, autumnal, natural – if these words go some way to defining your dream wedding, then you’re gonna love this styled Autumn wedding shoot at Sanctum on the Green!

In October I was delighted to take part in a wedding shoot at Sanctum on the Green organised by the Flourish Workshop, with a set put together by an incredible team of wedding suppliers from across the south of England.

As soon as I found out about this Autumn shoot, I immediately headed to Google to have a look at some images of the hotel and WOW – what a gorgeous venue! Sanctum on the Green is an exclusive boutique hotel set in rural Berkshire. The luxurious hotel has only nine guest rooms, a heated outdoor pool, spa, space for glamping tents, and serves a delicious range of traditional British cuisine, making it a perfect venue for weddings, romantic getaways or a needed weekend escape all year round.

Having followed the work of the Flourish Workshop for a while, I knew this shoot would be exquisitely styled, and I was definitely not disappointed. I loved the soft colour palette of whites, greys, steel blues and dusty pinks. This, combined with the natural textures, materials and dried flowers they used, provided an organic, wild and natural look. Oh, and did I mention the cake?! I loved it’s simplicity mixed with the rough icing edges and delicate flower decorations. With its distressed edges, the stationery too complemented this organic look perfectly! Take a look!


A MASSIVE thank you to the Flourish Workshop for organising such a gorgeous shoot, to all the fantastic wedding suppliers, and to the young couple who were a delight to photograph.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Lorna Richerby

I’m a wedding photographer based in North Berwick, on the East Lothian coast – shooting weddings across Scotland, the UK, and wherever your day takes you.

Most people feel a bit awkward in front of a camera. My job is to make you forget I’m there – blending into the background, watching for the real moments, and making sure you feel completely at ease from the moment we meet.

Eight years in, I still genuinely love what I do. If you’re looking for a photographer, I’d love to hear about your wedding.
