Wow! You are going to love the pictures of this sexy, luxurious, modern Viking wedding inspiration styled shoot. With a sultry, modern take on traditional Viking styles, the creative team created something spectacular and unique.

Three brides in Lowther Castle for Modern Viking Wedding Inspiration shoot

The rich, luxurious colours of the spectacular floral details set the tone for the Viking styling. Together with the edgy detail of the wedding dresses and the backdrop of Lowther Castle, this is a visual delight.

Our thanks go to Tiree Dawson Photography for sharing these stunning pictures…

Everything Came Together Perfectly

“Our Viking wedding inspiration shoot took place at an authentic Gothic castle. The dew was heavy on the ground and thick mist shrouded the grey stonework. Everything came together perfectly!”

“The hair and make-up featured modern versions of traditional, Viking styles; heavy, smokey eyes and braided, accessorised hairstyles. Each model brought their own, unique look to the shoot, and when they were all together they looked incredible. They were like true warrior princesses!

“The rich plum, damson, aubergine and peach florals matched the amazing cake and hand-painted stationery beautifully. The brass, blue-grey slate and dark crockery helped to create a fabulous feast table, complete with hanging Edison lighting.

“The overall look was a far cry from the whites and pastels of many weddings. However, it was so warm and inviting that we all wished we were dining at that table.
