This week we have been lucky enough to host a mini workshop for fellow stylists and wedding planners alongside The Weddinghood, focusing on planning a styled shoot, designing a mood board and picking a colour palette. We thought we would share some of our favourite tips for choosing a colour palette for your own wedding or event.
