wedding style— Top 5 Instagram Accounts For Wedding Planning Inspo

GRAB YOUR FREE 12 MONTH WEDDING PLANNING CHECKLIST HERE!

We love Instagram for wedding planning inspiration! There are so many incredible accounts from professionals sharing their ideas, wisdom, and just some great shots. We’d recommend creating a saved folder on Instagram for your wedding planning inspiration so you can refer back to it, and share it with your partner and wedding planner if you choose to work with one. Head over to our Book of Love directory for wedding stylist and wedding planner recommendations.

To start your Instagram wedding planning inspo folder (if you haven’t already got one!) we’ve got a few accounts to get you started.

@thegiraffeshed

The Giraffe Shed is an alternative barn wedding venue based in Wales, and their account is nothing short of amazing. Describing themselves as a ‘palace of joy, confetti and dancing’, they promise to host a day that is the wedding of your dreams. For couples looking for something that ‘nana won’t approve of’, look no further.

Their Instagram feed has all the wedding planning inspiration you need to get you started on the big day you desire. From micro weddings, to weddings for up to 100 guests, you’ll see the wide array of colourful, glittery weddings on show at The Giraffe Shed. Pictures to fill you with glittery inspiration, rural wedding vibes complete with edgy bands, neon signs contrasting with Welsh scenery - we know you’ll be inspired at every post. Take a scroll, save some posts, and get the wedding inspiration flowing.

@wholelottalove_weddings

Zuza runs a wedding planning service, and her feed is a retro-loving non-traditional wedding planning dream. Love the idea of a rock-n-roll wedding that ends with a rollerblading party? Or are you a huge fan of 70s disco looks or bohemian outdoor picnics? If any of that sounds like your thing, Zuza’s insta will certainly inspire your wedding planning dreams.

For the couples who want something outside of the usual chapel and white dress tradition, then you’ll find that Zuza is your disco funk fairy godmother! We can’t stop adding pretty much every post to our saves - she’s created something extra special, and her feed certainly promises to inspire you.

@markhortonphotos

Mark is a creative wedding photographer, so you already know he’s going to get the best shots that will inspire you as you’re planning your wedding. From grungy couple pictures to smoke grenade portraits, from grooms in electric yellow suits to confetti flares, you’re going to have your mind whirring with new ideas for shots and looks to plan for your wedding.

We love Mark’s approach to photography, and have been particularly taken by his couples shoot ideas in unusual places, like a Five Guys diner and photoshoots down graffiti’d alleyways. If you’re looking for ideas for the most epic shots to remember your wedding day by, then the pictures on this feed will be going straight to your saved folder.

@toberevealed_styling

Stacey is a floral stylist and tablescape curator, so if you’re looking for inspiration on the decor of your day, check out her Instagram account. More is more with her stunning floral tablescapes - you’ll see true blasts of vibrant colour, florals to blow you away, and colourful candles in all sorts of arrangements. You don’t have to follow the rules of linen white tablecloths at your wedding and samey-same table settings. See if her photos inspire you, and maybe you’ll find yourself craving a deep red tablecloth to set up your day.

A maximalist approach to your wedding style can be a fantastic thing to consider. Your guests have a chance to connect over food at a table, so why not let it be a connection full of floral blasts, colourful crockery, and bold designs. As you go about your wedding planning, be inspired by things done differently. We love looking at Stacey’s feed for new ideas for non-traditional wedding decor.

@the_un_wedding

We had to add ourselves in, because, well, we love to fill our feed with inspiration, ideas, and non-traditional weddings we love! Photographs can be one of the best ways to figure out what you do and don’t like, so for a variety of alternative wedding inspiration as you go about your wedding planning, check out our feed. Couples photoshoot ideas, outfits for the day, floral styling, wedding venue inspo, and reminders that it’s your wedding, so have it your way! We give you a dose of modern wedding inspo from suppliers we trust, and real couples whose weddings have blown us away.

As you approach your wedding planning, finding the things that resonate with you and inspire you are one of the best ways to figure out what you truly want for your day. You and your partner need not feel that you need to stick to one aesthetic - you can pick and choose the traditions you want to keep in your wedding, or chuck them ALL out. You can go retro and elegant, bohemian and disco, minimalist with maximalist outfits. Just start with finding the things you like, and go from there.
