How would you describe your wed­ding style?

Alter­na­tive and personal

Invi­ta­tions and recep­tion stationery:

Rus­tic style

What did you wear?

Sally wore a dress which her mom had made for her, with red shoes by Jasper Con­ran and sil­ver jew­ellery. Ben’s suit was from a vin­tage store in Fulham

The wed­ding cer­e­mony was held at Walmer Cas­tle in Kent, which is now owned by Eng­lish Her­itage. The wed­ding recep­tion was held in tipis in a local field, which per­fectly suited the couple’s rus­tic theme and alter­na­tive wed­ding styling.

Wed­ding music and entertainment:

Some friends played a clas­si­cal piece on the cello, and another friend sang a Bob Mar­ley song. In the evening a DJ friend sup­plied the music.
