How would you describe your wed­ding style?

We opted for a vin­tage themed wedding

A lit­tle about the wed­ding ceremony:

We had a civil cer­e­mony at Bar­tle Hall in the beau­ti­ful Wind­sor Suite. It was a relaxed atmosphere.

Which read­ings did you choose?

We had non-religious read­ings, one being ‘On your wed­ding day’

Tell us a lit­tle about your wed­ding venue styling and details:

We used chair cov­ers by Cre­ative Cover Hire and acces­sorised the room with our own birdcages

Wed­ding music and entertainment:

Through­out the cer­e­mony and recep­tion we had a pianist named Ken Rob­son, who is absolutely fan­tas­tic. At night we had the res­i­dent DJ named Simon Gee.

What did you both wear?

My wed­ding dress was Ben­jamin Roberts and I loved it! My shoes were Faith. My head­piece was by Halo & Ellis.
The groom wore a hired suit by Moss Brothers

Mem­o­rable wed­ding day moments:

My mem­o­rable wed­ding moment was my mom read­ing a read­ing at the cer­e­mony, she cried from start to fin­ish

Wed­ding day advice:

My wed­ding day advice would be to just enjoy the day

Rec­om­mended wed­ding suppliers:

I would rec­om­mend Philip Bam­ber Pho­tog­ra­phy, he’s bril­liant, he def­i­nitely knows his job and he seems to gen­uinely love what he does [note from Phil: I didn’t ask them to say this, honest!!!]
