Cool wedding inspo: Pink bows and disco balls

Engaged people; stop what you’re doing immediately as you’re going to want to read this blog. We joined forces with the awesome team at The Venue Experts to come up with the coolest wedding day inspo for your 2025 and 2026 big days. Collaborating with the very best wedding suppliers in Leicestershire, we’re very excited to share this incredible editorial shoot photographed by Phoebe Sarah Photos. It’s packed with details you’re definitely going to want to steal for your big day. Pink bows and disco balls for weddings? It’s a yes from us.  

The cool Leicestershire wedding venue

Looking for a unique Midlands wedding venue? The Hall Barns is the ultimate cool barn venue, serving up flexibility for your big day, alongside plenty of good vibes. If you’re planning a festival-style wedding, our outdoor ceremony spaces and on-site glampsite have got you covered. Our rustic-luxe barn is a stylish blank canvas for you to put your own stamp on, and we love how it’s been turned into a wedding disco wonderland for this styled shoot.

Red and pink wedding flowers

Bold, dramatic and contemporary is the order of the day when it comes to wedding flowers everyone will remember. The Flower Fox Studio transformed our Crewyard and 19^th century barn with textured floral displays in vibrant hot pinks and reds. Using a mix of different height blooms, including roses, allium, stocks, gerberas and buddleia, alongside trailing eucalyptus greenery, these colour-pop flowers made a statement. With a simple yet striking mix of roses in a spectrum of pinks and reds, the bridal bouquet was giving ‘classic with a modern twist’.

Disco-themed wedding styling

Want to bring a touch of disco to your big day? Of course you do! Trust us when we say disco balls are big news for 2025 and 2026 weddings. The Rustic Wedding Company went to town styling The Hall Barns, channelling a cute, fun party vibe. Disco balls in a mix of sizes, all tied with pink bows, lined the top of the aisle, while asymmetric chair swags – again, tied with a signature bow – brought a romantic feel.

The party vibe continued in our reception space, where the barn was set up for a wedding breakfast with a difference. Fringed ribbon and foil bunting was hung from the rafters, while tables were dressed with diaphanous pink table runners.

Individual roses and pink anthurium sat in single stem glass vases, tied with little bows, while tall tapered candles in red, pink and coral lined the tables in glass candlesticks, along with cherries and mini glitter balls.

The quirky wedding touches

We all know that wedding stationery is the perfect way to set the scene for your celebration, and Aimee from Ellis Tate absolutely nailed quirky big day style with red, white and pink invites and menus, featuring the shoot’s signature bow motif. Obsessed!

And can we please take a minute for this cake by Lucy Claire Bakes? We love the retro feel of this Instagram-worthy wedding cake. The two-tier beauty was decorated with pink waterfall piping, fresh cherries and raspberries and – naturally – mini disco balls.

Modern bridal style

A wedding this epic deserves the outfits to match and our gorgeous models – a real-life married couple! – showed these off in style. Our amazing hair stylist and make-up artist worked their magic, before our couple modelled the most amazing wedding dress from Dress Me Pretty and suit from Stringfellows Outfitters.

Our gorge bride wore Stirling by Madi Lane. Featuring a modern square necked bodice with flattering draping, a statement thigh-high split and trailing overskirt, this was ‘cool bride’ personified. We love the detachable ruched tulle sleeves and 60s-style short veil edged with floral tulle embellishments. The glitter heels and intricate up-do completed the look perfectly. Our groom kept it classy in a black tux, oversized bow tie and coordinating buttonhole. Love. It. All.
