Steampunk Wedding Shoot

A Steampunk wedding: defined by the rustic colours of old machinery and Victorian fashion infused with the vibrancy of modern textures and corsetry this wedding shoot shows off brilliantly just how you can create a Steampunk wedding… Brides, hang on to your corsets! With it’s eclectic mix of top hats, whimsical accessories and a fancy tea party, this wedding theme jumps off the pages of a Jules Verne novel.


Steampunk is the fusion of Victorian art and fashion with science fiction.  Taken from the time when steam-powered machines were in use, it combines airships and steam engines with laser guns and cowboys.  Think Victorian styled corsetry, lace and leather, think Jules Verne and H.G. Wells and of course think Alice In Wonderland!!!  All these images represent a sub-genre that has merged into the fantastical styling that create a Steampunk Wedding and todays shoot is spectacularly filled with all things Steampunk.


Created by Nicki Komorowski this shoot started out as a very simple idea between friends over lunch just under a year ago; their previous collaboration had been a ‘Biker Alice’ Rock the Frock shoot and before she knew it, it had turned into an amazing collaboration between a group of fabulous wedding creatives and suppliers who were strangers up until a month or so ago. This is how shoots should be!!!
