Today we're sharing a fab inspiration shoot which took place at an epic new Surrey wedding venue, bringing together a team of some of Surrey's finest suppliers to showcase the new space.
Botley Hill Barn is a stunning new exclusive use wedding and event venue, offering a rustic but contemporary space with epic views across the Surrey countryside. The barn is built from chic black timber for a slightly industrial feel, and we particularly loved the huge window overlooking the valley with sweeping panoramic views across the landscape.
Look 1 - Soft relaxed bohemian
The first look we created was to showcase two of our new Anna Kara dresses. We wanted to show how well these dresses could work for a British wedding, and the barn was the perfect setting for this.
The great thing about the huge windows is that they bring the outside in, so no matter the weather you can create a day with an outdoorsy feel that celebrates nature, whilst still remaining cosy inside and enjoying the incredible vista.
Look 2 - Sparkly winter wedding
The 'Paniculata' dress (style 170) from Jesus Peiro's 2020 bridal collection has been getting a lot of attention, so we brought it along for the shoot as we thought it would beautifully against the rustic backdrop.
This caped gown features glittery polka dots from top to bottom, and would work wonderfully for a romantic winter wedding - we can just imagine the barn filled with candles that would make the dress sparkle beautifully.
Sharon styled the dress with a low, loose up do adorned with some Miss Clemmie pearl hairpins.
Look 3 - Modern tailored trousers
Since these incredible trousers arrived at Miss Bush we've been getting to grips with the new challenges that come with fitting and styling trousers, and knew that we absolutely had to include them in this gorgeous shoot.
The three piece set looked right in home in the contemporary, industrial barn surroundings, and were particularly striking outside the huge statement window.

Look 4 - Silver sequin glamour
The namesake of the 2020 Jesus Peiro Cala Collection, the Cala dress (style style 171) is a super glamorous showstopper, made from draped panels of soft luxurious brushed sequin fabric.
We couldn't resist shooting this look in front of Matt Maurice's lights and DJ set up for a dash of extra glamour and cool Studio 54 vibes.
