Behind the Scenes on a Modern Wedding DIY Shoot

Modern Wedding Posted: October 30, 2014

DIY brides will be delighted to know that a brand new edition of Modern Wedding DIY magazine will be ON SALE in just 4 days time, so be sure to mark Monday in your diary! (because DIY girls certainly enjoy a cute diary!)

Today we thought we’d give you a little taste of what to expect with this behind the scenes snippet of our coastal inspired DIY shoot.

Modern Wedding DIY editor Gail MacDiarmid headed to Moby Dicks, Whale Beach along with a talented team, including photographer Jane Allen and floral stylist Ashleigh of Clementine Posy, to create this beach imbued theme.

You can see the finished story in Coastal Style (pages 27-37 of Modern Wedding DIY 5th Edition) including all the instructions on how to recreate this setting yourself!

The latest edition of Modern Wedding DIY will be on sale Monday 3rd November, online through Modern Wedding and all good newsagents. To see more behind the scenes videos check us out on YouTube.
