Styled shoots are a creative way for photographers, stylists, and other wedding pros, to show off their talent and visions to inspire readers for their own wedding planning.

Although spring is way off yet, it is never too early to start planning for 2026 springtime weddings!

This stunning styled shoot took place at Linden Manor exclusively for Virginia Weddings Magazine

Spring | summer 2026 issue, and we just had to share a sneak peek.

The Details:

Put together by a talented team of wedding vendors the theme is Golden Whimsy in bloom: A Garden wedding at Linden Manor near Tappahannock, Virginia.

The editorial team used yellow tones which is the color of sunshine, optimism, and energy. In a lush green setting like Linden Manor, it pops — not too overpowering, but just enough to spark curiosity and pull the eye.
