Chloe & Callum here’s your @shustokebarn sneak p Chloe & Callum here’s your @shustokebarn sneak peek!⚡️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So let’s talk about yesterday… what an incredible day at one of my favourites! It also just happened to be the hottest day of the year, it was WARM! ☀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There’s so much I could say, but let me summarize! We had a chicken with us during bridal prep, I fell down a step and nearly dropped a camera! We had laughs for days, we had bubble guns for confetti, which turned into adults and us playing with them for photos! 🤣 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There was the entertainment, live music during cocktail hour, with a Latino feel, Balearic terrace vibes in the evening and to top it off we got the most insane sunset! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You guys absolutely rocked it and in that heat too! Not forgetting the star of the show, your daughter ‘Lana’ who always had a smile on her face! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Here’s a few of my faves, can’t wait to share more! 📸 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Supplier love - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Venue - @shustokebarn Chain - @crippsandco Wedding gown - @elyseebridaldesign Bridal boutique - @tdrbridalbirmingham Venue decor - @foxandfauxstyling Hair - @sarahjayemua Mua - @makeupby_harper Bridesmaids outfits - @jacquelinelouisebridal Suits - @peterposhsuit Videographer - @imoshaweddings Content creator - @loveandcontent_uk Live band - @synergyliveband Illustrator - @whilehugosleepsco DJ - @bennysmythdj Cake - @staceys_cake_creations Car - @cvshire ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #destinationweddingphotography #shustoke #shustokefarmbarns #bridetobe2026 #bridetobe2027 #bridalfashion #weddingstory #barnweddings #barnwedding #birminghammua #birminghamwedding #highendweddings #westmidlandswedding #weddingdressideas #bohoweddings #weddingceremonyideas #weddingdressinspiration #weddingdressinspo #weddingflowersinspiration #elyseebridal #weddingplanningtips #weddingvenuehunting #rusticbarnwedding #rusticbarn #barnweddingvenue #elyseebride
