WILD AT HEART

Thomas Frost

If you dream of being immersed in nature on your wedding day and marrying to the soundtrack of the breeze through the trees, then the enchanting setting of Cornish Tipi Weddings is a wildly romantic choice. Located in a tucked-away spot within touching distance of the rugged north Cornwall coastline, the 16-acre bluebell covered valley features ancient woodland and a lake at its heart. You can wed by the water (or even on it), or in the licensed wood, willow and canvas pavilion, which is flanked by a brook and a canopy of trees. Alternatively, roam the grounds and find your own space for a humanist ceremony or pagan handfasting before celebrating in the pavilion and giant tipi, while a cluster of gazebos can also be added to accommodate guest numbers and all-weather events. There’s an abundance of on-site accommodation in the form of tipis of varying sizes or wild camping, so your guests can bed down under the stars after celebrating your party of a lifetime! Explore the beyond-beautiful venue online courtesy of their new blog – Outside Bride – where you’ll find inspiration galore for a back-to-nature celebration. As well as real weddings at the venue, the blog is full of practical advice, covering issues such as inviting children and wet-weather contingency plans, and pin-worthy inspiration for styling, marquee décor and floral design. There’s even a section filled with menu ideas from the venue’s favourite local catering companies, and testimonials from couples who have fallen for the magic of this extraordinary venue. With lots more content in the pipeline, keep

THE GRACE OF SPRING

With the atmospheric greys and greens of the rolling hills beyond, a soft palette of blush pink, clean white and fresh green takes centre stage for this styled shoot in the blank canvas setting of Camel Studio. A focus on spring leans in the direction of the breezy beginnings of the season, where there’s a crisp freshness to the air and the hint of petals beginning to emerge. Tucked away in the Camel Valley, the rugged landscape surrounding the venue sets the scene for romance amongst a backdrop of weather-bent hawthorns and a patchwork of green fields. Contrasting the wildness of the outdoors with the clean styling of the interior, the floral displays adorning the barn doors hint at the stylish table setting and intimate atmosphere inside. Tall blossoms in clear glass vases sit alongside flowers in the palest of pinks, while petals and green leaves act as a natural table runner. Rose gin in cutglass tumblers nestle the rough-edged hues of the stationery, while elegant candles flicker atop draped linen napkins and a rustic white table. The cake exemplifies the soft, pretty aesthetic with its hand-painted florals. Waved hair and a delicate hair vine, together with a naturally abundant bouquet, softens the bride’s structured and timelessly beautiful sleeved gown by Jesus Peiro, while the movement and flow of the Willowby by Watters gown gives her the chance to have fun with her look. Outside, the wind whips at her loose tendrils, the wild Cornish elements echoing the rustic character that underpins this modern, minimalist wedding in the heart of the countryside.

A FABULOUS FINISH You’ve found your dream dress and the accessories to match, but don’t forget the ultimate finish to ensure you feel the part: your bridal hair and make-up. Kimberly Holland of KH Bridal specialises in beautifying brides by consulting closely and experimenting beforehand with a variety of looks to help you land on ‘the one’, making you look and feel your absolute best. “I love being able to make my brides feel really special, and I want you to feel the best version of you, your most beautiful self, when the time comes for you to take your vows!” explains Kimberly, who recommends a trial run to help you debate everything from your lashes to your locks in a fun session that’s free of the usual wedding planning time restraints. “I always reserve plenty of time for these appointments. I never want you to feel rushed or that you haven’t tried everything you want to,” she says. In addition, she offers an array of other prettifying services such as manicures, pedicures, brow shaping and tinting, individual eyelash extensions and spray tanning. khbridal.com

LOVE IN BLOOM When so much thought – not to mention pinning! – goes into choosing your dream bridal bouquet it seems a shame to have it for such a short time. That’s why we love the idea of having yoour flowers preserved. Sarah Barrett of View of the Sea dries wedding flowers and captures their beauty in gorgeous resin letters and paperweights so you can gaze on the beauty of your bridal blooms for years to come! etsy.com/uk/shop/ ViewOfTheSeaStore

THE LOOK OF LOVE

According to author Linda Grant, clothes can act in an autobiographical way. “Clothes as text, clothes as narration, clothes as a story. Clothes as the story of our lives,” she writes; and, as any budding bride will know, the pressure to pick a dress for a day as important as her wedding presents a milestone fashion choice indeed. What’s more, the beauty of wedding dress Freda Bennet, Bliss Bridal Gowns

shopping is also its flaw: seemingly endless options, leaving brides as befuddled as can be

Rembo Styling, St Ives Bridal Boutique

when it comes to the all-important search for

Catherine Deane, The Bridal House of Cornwall

‘the one’. But rather than feeling flabbergasted by the decision ahead of you and the stressinducing desire to tell your love story in a single garment, instead search for something that is a reflection of you by taking your stylistic self as muse. We’ve scoured the runways to deliver the most desirable dresses wedding world currently has to offer, placing them into four easy categories to help you pick what you like, Justin Alexander, Elaine Rawlings Bridal Boutique

and look like ‘you’…

Justin Alexander, Elaine Rawlings Bridal Boutique

Sincerity Bridal, Elaine Rawlings Bridal Boutique

Vintage Vintage in this sense doesn’t mean decades-old dresses taken out of storage and worn exactly as they were when first created. Rather, we’re talking a fashion-forward take on the timeless by harking back to bygone trends, but adding a modern twist. Think gowns with Victorian features like long sleeves and high, mock necks but with contemporary elements such as cut-outs, colour and textural fabrics. The Renaissance period is all the rage, with puffy sleeves – specifically gathered bell sleeves – alongside ruffled collars and corsetry with exposed boning all contributing to a reimagined regal air of romance. Then there’s old school glamour and its pièce de résistance: the satin ballgown. Add a demure single – or even double – side split for screen siren-esque seduction, with off-the-shoulder styles another facet of the look. Alternatively, seek out a scalloped neckline for a feminine nod to the ’80s or opt for something art deco-inspired with all-over sparkle.

Boho Bohemienne is definitely a buzzword in bridal fashion. Modern prairie met Victoriana on the catwalks, courtesy of smocking, empire waists, high necklines and long or puffy sleeves. Lace is as lust-worthy as ever and comes in a stunning variety of forms, from all-over crochet and nude mosaic to geometric and softer floral designs. Brides wanting to up the boho ante can wallow in watercolours, floral print or blush. Better yet are buff and ginger hues, with soft greens (especially pistachio) and macaron shades featuring as other top tones du jour. And with hemlines becoming higher, everything from short dresses to micro minis and ultra wearable high-low skirts are ideal for a more relaxed

Romance ‘Romance’ is tricky to define in bridal fashion terms, as though it throws the spotlight on whimsical detail, the latest collections boast a more refined, mature and sophisticated focus. Anything reserved for a very special sartorial occasion generally meets the criteria: tiers, ruffles, feathers, statement sleeves and detached overskirts can be combined to spellbinding effect and customised to individually suit your own interpretation. And let’s not forget the fairytale factor. Volume is back, but via froth achieved with layers and lightweight fabrics like tulle, as

D N A E N O T S LA … G N I TH We’ve asked just-married brides about the one thing they forgot on their wedding day, so you don’t have to! words Lucy Higgins

AND ONE LAST THING...

First things first: there will always be one little thing you overlook on your wedding day, and chances are, it won’t matter at all. So don’t worry about having every single element under complete control. We’re not trying to panic you into worrying about all the things you may have forgotten; rather, to give you a few little reminders that may not have occurred to you. For peace of mind and a couple of handy hints, we’ve asked those couples who’ve already had their big day for the one thing they forgot! Lily, who got married at Scorrier House, has one simple answer: “Tea towels!” she says. “We provided all our own vintage china that I’d been collecting for two years, and it all needed washing before we packed it up the next day. There was everything from milk jugs to serving platters, and I’d prepped the boxes with bubble wrap, washing up liquid… and not enough tea towels. They were soaked within minutes, and we ended up using anything we could find to dry everything to pack it all away, including the tablecloths.” What you need to remember (or, even better, delegate to someone else to remember!) will depend on your venue. For a hotel wedding, you won’t need to consider as many elements as you will for a DIY barn wedding, for example. “I completely forgot about rubbish and recycling removal at our village hall wedding,” says Lara. “Our caterer was amazing and did a really thorough cleanup at the end of the night, but the next day I realised there was a lot of recycling to organise and bin bags to get rid off. It took ages, but we got very lucky with a bin lorry magically appearing just as we were running out of ideas for what to do. I recommend being more organised!” On that note, Erica decided to make it easy for herself after her wedding, and hired a cleaner. “Our family offered to come back the day after our village hall wedding and help clean, but I asked an ‘end-of-lease’ cleaning company, and they did a brilliant job. It meant the next day, we could all just go for brunch instead!” she says. “And they also reminded me of two things that apparently people always forgot at DIY weddings: toilet roll, and soap for the toilets!” It’s not all in the prep: there are some elements it’s best not to forget to ensure your day is as enjoyable as possible, as Carly found out. “We forgot to ask the venue to keep a plate of evening food back for us!” she says. “I was too busy mingling that I missed the food and when we went to bed I was starving!” Luanne, whose wedding breakfast came in the form of food trucks, had a similar problem – but a simple solution, thanks to a brilliant bridesmaid. “We had three food trucks parked at the venue, so people could choose what they wanted to eat,” she says. “It worked really well, and created a sociable atmosphere, but while people were queuing to order their food, I was busy chatting to friends and family, and didn’t want to join the queue. I didn’t even think about it, to be honest! Luckily, my gorgeous maid of honour, Kirsty – without even saying anything – just ordered for me, and brought a big burrito for each of us (and a shot of tequila!). It

feature | WEDDING ADVICE | AND ONE LAST THING...

made us both laugh, and also made sure the drinks didn’t go to my head on an empty stomach!” Unless you have a sit-down meal, it’s a good idea to take a leaf from Luanne and Kirsty’s book, and nominate someone to keep an eye on you and make sure you eat! And when it comes to the end of the night, there’s one (major!) thing to remember, too. “We totally forgot to organise how we were getting home after the reception!’ says Mel. “At the end of the night when everyone had left and we had everything packed up, we realised we hadn’t arranged our transport! We called a taxi, and a bemused driver turned up who hadn’t taken a bride and groom in full attire home before. He was very helpful loading all the wedding accoutrements in and out again at home!” she laughs. Finally, heed the advice of Carla, whose venue burnt down three weeks before her wedding. With a lot of extra elements to reorganise, she knows a thing or two about what’s actually important and what isn’t! “Having to basically organise a brand new wedding with three weeks to go taught me a lot about perspective!” she says. “In the days leading up to it, I ended up feeling more and more relaxed, knowing that as long as the people I loved were there, and my soon-to-be husband and I could focus on the love, everything else would be fine. My suppliers remembered all the vital things, and on the day, everything was amazing. I’m sure there were things I’d forgotten about that I would probably have found stressful if the venue change hadn’t happened, but honestly, I didn’t give it a second thought,” she says. “The only part that stressed me out was the night before my wedding,” she continues. “I realised I hadn’t picked out gifts for my bridesmaids. I’d intended to buy them some beautiful jewellery but with all the change of plans, it had completely slipped my mind. I called a jeweller I loved at 5pm the night before, who offered to stay open, then I zoomed down and picked out some beautiful necklaces for my beautiful girls. I know they wouldn’t have minded or noticed if I hadn’t given them anything, but after the huge amount of hard work and support they gave me, it was really important for me to acknowledge that,” she reminisces. “Oh, and one other thing I forgot… Spanx! But one of my bridesmaids went out on the morning of the wedding and panic-bought me a few pairs. Sorted!”

It’s not all about the dress – the groom’s outfit is a prime opportunity for you to dress to impress and self-express

Torre at Cornwall Suit Room

words Hannah May

When it comes to your wedding day, the pressing question of what to wear isn’t solely reserved for the ladies. With today’s spotlight firmly fixed on ‘the couple’, grooms can feel as much sartorial scrutiny as brides, which means that choosing your ensemble – especially with the endless array of options available – can seem a daunting task. Fret not, for we’ve enlisted the help of the experts Nicki Shea

to help you get style savvy for W-day, from choosing your suit to pairing it with the perfect accessories and the latest trends to look out for.

“Brown shoes are trending with blue and grey suits, but our advice is to make sure your groomsmen are all matching (apart from the groom, if he wants to be different). When you have gone to the effort and expense of having the guys in matching suits then odd shoes will stand out like a sore thumb in the photos,” he says of the pitfalls of mixed palettes. “A smart pair of tan shoes with a matching tan belt just looks so right together,” he notes. “Add a tiepin or clip, or maybe some matching cufflinks. Most waistcoats will take a pocket watch (so no excuse for the groom to be late). See how you are starting to look the part now?” The question of whether to mirror the bridal party can be contentious, with many a traditionalist insisting this particular dress code is adhered to and others encouraging the rule book to be torn up in favour of the groom’s individual preferences, so have a discussion with your fiancée before making those key decisions.

Tweed “Tweeds were very popular with grooms in 2019 and we expect the trend to continue in 2020,” predicts Alan. “‘Peaky Blinders’ has certainly helped fuel this trend. We stock the option of a full two or three-piece tweed suit to hire or to buy. Some prefer just the jacket and waistcoat in tweed and finish the outfit off with a plain pair of trousers or chinos. Others will prefer a plain suit and add just the tweed in a waistcoat or a tweed tie. We even stock some tweed suits to cater for children from ages one to 15.” Grooms with a particular penchant for texture will also delight in the latest fashion shows’ love affair with satin.

Tailoring Relaxed silhouettes are all the rage, with slouchy tailoring evoking a casual aesthetic including shallow double-breasted and extra-double-breasted suiting, oversized Oxford shirts with a preppy vibe (or even painterly prints and tie-dye, which has been reimagined with an arty/abstract feel), mid-layer garments like tunics and elongated tops, and ’90s-style oversized blazers. Alternatively, high-waisted trousers make a trendy nod to the ’40s, or you could even rock the layered look by adding a vest (knitted, monochrome, coloured) for one of the most-wanted and wearable The Vintage Suit Hire Co.

Plus, I wish I’d eaten more cheese at the first wedding, and tried the dessert at the second!” he laughs while drawing attention to the fact that many couples fail to take stock and mindfully enjoy their day due to the stresses and time-wasting so often involved. budgets and having to rein in certain ideas and not

Just think, what’s the most important thing – getting married to the love of your life or what stationery you had?”

“Lucy and I had two weddings: one in April and one in December in the different countries we’re from, to allow as many family and friends to celebrate with us without them having to travel too far,” explains Andy of their ‘lovefest party’ in Australia followed by a winter wedding in Cornwall. “They brought their own challenges as they were completely different, with opposite styles, people, outfits, themes…so we ended up planning two weddings in a year,” he says. “We had a pretty even split of who did what, although in reality this meant we both ended up doing everything – we talked through most elements of the wedding and came to a decision together. We hadn’t intended on doing that and it took a lot longer, but just evolved that way. It felt like a team effort,” he says of their collaborative approach.

Follow these top tips to help grooms successfully engage in the planning process and happily share the load… DELEGATE – Whether between yourselves or appointing trusted members of friends and family, be prepared to loosen the reins and assign roles to the best person for the job based on their individual strengths, experience and interests (and always invite them to be frank about their opinions before

accepting the task). DISCUSS – Keep referring back to each other for regular updates and brief analyses, and to double check you’re both on board with everything – especially changes or how to best tackle new challenges. DEBATE – Keep the lines of communication constantly open between you and everyone else involved, and if things change or are no longer feasible, debate the issue to find a resolution together rather than ignoring/forcing the issue. DITCH – Be prepared to drop things that simply don’t work, are too expensive or cause too much stress…and then move on. DEFER – If you can’t or don’t want to do something (even if you originally agreed), or your to do list becomes unachievable – pass it on to your fiancée or enlist the help of someone else and focus your energy elsewhere. DELIVER – If you say you’ll do something – do it! That way, every item on the checklist should be attended to and omissions avoided. If for any reason you find yourself unable to complete a task: discuss, defer or delegate accordingly!

GLOW GETTER With a range of gentle and fragrant scents, including ginger & lime, rose, and winter spice, all the candles from The Recycled Candle Company in Exeter use 100% recycled wax. Collected from hotels, restaurants, churches, cathedrals and the public, the end result is a luxury product that’s eco-conscious and divine. You can even send in your own scrap candle wax (after the wedding?) to be given new life! therecycledcandlecompany.co.uk

BLOOMS DAY Flowers are a perennial favourite when it comes to wedding cakes and we’re loving the current trends for adding some petal pretty to your sweet centrepiece. Think hand-painted petals, pressed edible flowers or a few statement blooms popping against clean lines and sumptuous colour. clairessweettemptations.com emilyhankins.co.uk | oonascakes.co.uk Verity Westcott

Claire’s Sweet Temptations

Oona’s Cakes

Rum is having a moment and – thanks to its associations with Cornwall’s smuggling past – it’s the perfect spirit to serve at a Cornish wedding. Lovingly crafted on a family farm on the county’s western tip, the latest rums on the scene are as rich in smuggling folklore as they are in delectable flavour. Cape Cornwall Rum Company’s range of rums are aged, mixed, spiced and bottled in a farm building known as ‘the wink’, thought to be the storage place for rum and other goods smuggled into Cape Cornwall by boat to avoid high government taxes. Available in white, gold and spiced, the rums are blended with pure Cornish water and ingredients inspired by the surrounding coastline such as saffron, Cornish sea salt, nutmeg and cinnamon. Whether served straight over ice or as crowd-pleasing cocktails – think Mojitos and Dark and Stormys – your guests are in for a palette-pleasing and quintessentially Cornish tipple. capecornwallrumco.com

FOR THE LOVE OF CHEESE We can’t think of a better topper for a cheese wedding cake than a delectable heart-shaped serving of Cornish Yarg from Lynher Dairies. The awardwinning cheeses from the small rural dairy near Truro are made by hand using full fat milk from carefully selected Cornish farms. Wrapped in nettles handpicked from Cornish hedgerows and fields, Cornish Yarg is creamy, crumbly and utterly delicious – a scrumptious local treat for guests or a romantic gift for a cheese-loving spouse! lynherdairies.co.uk

Autumn is an endlessly romantic time of year to wed. And in this styled shoot, the vivid colours and history of the Red Rock Canyon in the Nevada Desert meet the warming hues of the season to create a spellbinding wedding scene, perfect for free spirits seeking an individual celebration close to nature. The wilds of the distinctly English landscape create a

wed’s style files Inspiration for a so-you celebration

gorgeous natural canvas for the scheme, which sees the reds, russets and burnt colours of autumn meet an abundance of foliage and wooden textures. The nods to the Red Rock Canyon find form in the horses, feathers and medley of natural materials. The low, dreamily boho wooden tablescape sees copper leaves and green foliage nestle chunky brown glassware, while oversized cushions and velvet furnishings bring warmth and texture, creating a cosy feeling of intimacy. Feathers and agate slice place settings add a rustic edge, with the textures and hues of the stationery reflecting the close-to-nature mood. Ferns and foliage frame the rich colours of the oversized bouquet, with the same blooms wound around the striking ceremony pyramid. The groom’s sartorial style adds to the vibe, his russet suit popping against the fresh greens and earthy hues of the backdrop, while the bride, with her tumbling red locks, dazzles in a gown adorned with shimmering stars. It’s a serene yet standout look: the free-spirited couple, bedecked in rich and sparkling colour, poised to gallop off into the sunset together.

THE LOOK OF LUXE

How do you bring out the best of such a unique wedding venue as the Mount Haven Hotel and Restaurant, with its contemporary interiors and enchanting vistas across Mount’s Bay? With styling that oozes individuality and complements the textures and palette of its breathtaking location, of course! Drawing on the surroundings and warm tones of the boutique hotel, a palette of sage green and white meets soft shades of blush, peach and burnt orange. The hues find beautiful form in the floral arrangements, the silken, softly coloured petals spilling from small urns across the tablescape. Organic textures, plush velvet and pampas grasses play into the mood of relaxed elegance, complementing the restaurant, with its muted hues and accents of wood and copper. The table styling works just as beautifully on the terrace, where the colours and natural textures blend seamlessly into the landscape, the iconic sight of St Michael’s Mount offering a captivating focal point. With a carnival of delicate white blooms and pampas grasses as a breezy backdrop, the Cornish sea beyond, it is difficult to imagine a dreamier setting for a wedding ceremony. The bride holds a bouquet of dainty petals, which echo the lace embellishment of her whimsical bridal gown, while the groom’s dinner suit exemplifies the luxurious keynote of the aesthetic. Then there’s the cake: a texture-rich vision of creamy latte and caramel tones so perfectly reflective of the stylish, comforting interiors of this seaside sanctuary.

BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL

A rustic yurt and contemporary reception space filled with a carnival of colourful blooms and handpainted stationery sets the scene for a vibrant and joyous occasion at The Park Cornwall, an exclusive five-star holiday park located within pebble-hurling distance of Mawgan Porth Beach. Specialising in laid-back weddings brimming with personality, ceremonies may take place in the magical yurt village, three eco lodges with stunning balcony views or the on-site restaurant. You might even opt for a celebrant-led ceremony on the beach. “Imagine saying your vows with the deep blue hues of the Atlantic Ocean in the background, soft, golden sand underfoot and your guests really experiencing everything that the Cornish coast has to offer,” says Hazel Parsons of Out of the Ordinary Weddings, who organised the shoot. “We used lots of natural light, natural textures and candlelight to create a laid-back, boho feel,” she explains. Bright corals and sea blues bring an effervescence of colour to the stationery, a floral watercolour design adding to the playful mood. Handpainted flowers add a pretty splash of colour to the crisp white cake, while mismatched vintage bottles filled with bright blooms enhance the bohemian mood with their fresh-from-the-hedgerow aesthetic. A chic updo and fresh, pretty make-up complement the bride’s gown, with its intricate embellishment and light, flowing skirt, while her dapper groom’s coral corsage pops against his stylish navy suit. The vibrant bouquet captures the relaxed, summery and celebratory vibe of the shoot perfectly, its silk ribbon dancing in the sea breeze.

“We are lucky that our meat comes straight from the butchery on our farm and therefore our barbecues are free from plastic packaging. We also buy cheeses and pasties from local producers and again there is no plastic packaging,” she adds, while other issues they’re currently tackling include plastic bottles and waste from plates.

The bridal wear

Olivia Bossert

Thanks to Cornwall-based bridal designer Claire L. Headdon (clairelheaddon.com), you don’t have to compromise when it comes to wedding wear, with her Organic Collection crafted at her Falmouth studio from sumptuous organic and fair trade silks. “I am incredibly passionate about promoting eco-friendly products and processes within the textile industry, choosing natural organic fibres over synthetics and sourcing locally wherever I can,” says Claire. The capsule collection comprises stylish separates and gowns that can be easily customised to create a bespoke look. “Focusing on versatility and the longevity of the gowns, they were designed with the perspective to be able to reuse, redesign and to pass on to others,” she says. There are further fashion options for eco-minded brides. “Hire a dress or go to a pre-loved dress shop and ask a seamstress to adapt a dress unique to you,” suggests Rebecca. “Or if you want your very own, new dress, reuse it by asking a seamstress to repurpose it for another occasion.”

Lisa Marie Grigsby

The flowers “When looking for flowers, it’s important to check that they have been locally grown, in season and pesticide-free. These are likely to last longer and do not negatively affect the environment,” highlights Jenny. “It is sad to see how many flowers often go to waste once the wedding is over,” she continues. “I think it’s a lovely idea for couples to bring an extra set of jam jars or second-hand vases so that table flowers can be given out to guests. If this isn’t feasible, many nursing homes would greatly appreciate a delivery of this kind.” “If creating your own tablespaces, ask friends and family if they have any foliage that can be used as central runners. Or use plants and ceramic pots to create that al fresco style dining effect,” says Rebecca. “Work with a florist who doesn’t use floral foam and uses locally grown organic flowers, where possible. Also, ask that no flowers are wrapped in

Try to keep waste to a minimum, so limited packaging, if any, and ensure the venue has a good recycling policy,” she says, adding that if you’re having a DIY wedding, ensure your caterers have recycling and compost bins and your bar has recycling bottle bins. “If you’re really brave, keep your menu meat-free or plant-based. There are some incredible vegan caterers out there. The food is so delicious your meat-eating guests won’t complain!” continues Rebecca. “Organic vegan cakes are delicious, so source a baker who can work their magic and your guests won’t know any different.” You could even take your cue from Charlotte and Nick Baker – a couple from Cumbria who hit the news in 2017 with their reputedly first ‘food waste wedding’, which involved the Real Junk Food Cafe catering for their 135 guests with food rejected from retailers that would have otherwise been thrown away.

Take the same approach with the alcohol. “Source local, organic and “Another fun idea is to ask guests to bring a bottle from their drinks cabinet. Hire an experienced mixologist who can work their magic with a hotchpotch of different spirits and liqueurs that have been gathering dust in the backs of cupboards.” Plastic straws are no longer welcome and, if you have a DIY bar, try to use glass, or at the very least recyclable or compostable cups. “For any food or drinks waste, there’s always the next day! Who doesn’t love a post-wedding lunch?” she says. Mount Pleasant Eco Park (mpecopark.co.uk) was built with environmentally friendly methods, and not only enforces the green factor in its sustainable daily practices (such as using a wind turbine to power 30% of the electricity, harvesting rainwater to flush the loos, being part of the plastic-free initiative and requesting that wedding parties do not bring single-use plastics onto the site), but delivers

delicious vegan and vegetarian menus from the Cabana Kitchen Café. “As a wedding venue, we believe the site provides environmental peace of mind along with the space to express yourselves as a couple,” says events manager, Izzy Blacher. “Our passion for the environment is also why we are a 100% vegetarian venue. Our on-site cafe very much shares in our ethos and produces seriously good vegetarian and vegan food, and as much as possible it uses home-grown organic produce from the Eco Park allotments to produce fresh seasonal menus for our weddings. From sharing platters and big-pan paellas to banquet style feasts we just love showing people just how good veggie food can be!”

The minutiae Don’t forget the little things, like décor, confetti and favours. If singleuse, think second-hand and biodegradable, otherwise always try to repurpose items to prevent them from reaching landfill. “Biodegradable confetti is generally all that most venues will now

accept,” says Rebecca. “Simple but lovely eco-friendly favours are either packets of seeds or, better yet, pre-planted seedlings or plants, in beautiful ceramic pots.” With décor, select items with ‘shelf life’ that will last beyond the day, and then gift them (to guests or charity) after the event. This could include anything from used candles and centrepieces to soft furnishings, which you can source from your own home or buy second-hand. For their recent wedding in Falmouth, Matt and Dan transported their own artworks, furniture and homewares to dress their venue, which – along with hiring giant potted palms – gave it a uniquely stylish and homely feel full of personal detail. Matt also handcrafted much of

the décor such as the votives and pottery, which he presented as post-wedding gifts. Self-penned letters served as a surprise on-the-day gift to every single guest, and they sold or donated the remaining items after the event. “Beg, borrow and steal,” instructs Rebecca. “Ask friends and family for help. If you’re having a rustic outdoorstyle wedding, ask if anyone has any picnic blankets, spare outdoor furniture, hay bales…” In short, be as resourceful and creative as you can to design a bespoke day that’s as green as it is distinctively ‘you’.

“OUR GREEN WEDDING” Not on the High Street Wedding in a Teacup

Gemma and Jack at Incredible Bulk (mobilezerowasteshop.co.uk) share their tips for throwing an eco-friendly wedding… Try to source locally. When we were planning our wedding we went to our local flower market to source flowers direct that came without packaging and were local and seasonal. Ditch synthetic confetti. We opted for rose petals but you can also make great confetti from dried leaves using a hole punch! Keep favours simple and useful. One of our favourite favours from a wedding was homemade lemon curd that the bride and groom had made. We utilised our place name holders (miniature Shakespeare

Not on the High Street

books) to double up as favours that guests could take home as a memento from the day. Consider what to wear. Look into second-hand options for outfits and think about after the day. I opted for a top and skirt and still wear the top regularly; there are also great seamstresses and dyeing services for updating your wedding outfits to wear after the wedding. Give your wedding décor away. We decorated our wedding space ourselves and gifted candles to special family members and friends; we also invited all guests to take any flowers or decorations they wanted so they didn’t go to waste!

THE FIVE Rs Wedding in a Teacup

Gemma and Jack suggest looking at the five Rs of zero waste to help you plan your wedding Refuse: You may want to refuse any single-use plastic from your wedding plans Reduce: The temptation with weddings is to go overboard, which is only natural, but take a step back and see if you really need it! Reuse: Do you or friends/family have things you can use instead of buying new? Can you reuse items afterwards? Recycle: Look for recycled options, for example, there are some great wedding rings made from recycled precious metals Rot: Ask your wedding venue whether they compost food waste, ensuring any wasted food doesn’t end up in landfill

St Eval Candle Co. Nothing evokes atmosphere quite like candlelight, and St Eval Candle Company’s eye-catching designs and sublime scents guarantee to spoil your guests’ senses, evoking memories of your wedding every time they’re lit. Pick from terracotta tea light holders (also available in gold – perfect for a twist of glamour), tin candles, rustic-style candle pots and scented tea lights in a heady list of fragrances including bluebell wood, sea salt, wild gorse, and vintage rose. Whatever the look of your day, it will be beautifully complemented by candles from collections such as Atlantic Coast, English Cottage and Wild Woodland, while The Garden of Eden range presents geranium, fig and tabac in natural pots embellished with leaves, perfect for a botanical style wedding. ​Boasting noteworthy green credentials, the Cornish company produces its own sustainable energy while implementing projects to protect birds and bees on its farm. Along with practices like reusing old packaging, its coveted candles are cleverly multi-purpose, allowing them to be reused for potting herbs and plants, desk tidies and trinket boxes. stevalcandlecompany.co.uk

Westcountry Tea Co. Combine an eco conscience with the quintessentially English pastime of tea drinking by treating your guests to the flavours of Westcountry Tea Co.

The family business blends and packages its award-winning range of teas in Cornwall, which come in a lip-smacking array of flavours, including masala chai, nettle and rose, spiced winter rooibos, peppermint and rosemary, and black tea favourites. So whether you wish to extend the theme, flavour or look of your day with the super-stylish packaged teas, include them in an afternoon tea or post-dinner drinks menu, or simply give your guests some topnotch tea to take home and savour after the event, this is the perfect choice; plus – if you purchase any of the ‘Lazy Days Tea’, you’re also contributing to the fantastic children’s charity, CHICKS. westcountrytea.co.uk

Wild Flower Favours This environmentally-conscious and vegan-run company prides itself on its efforts to practically eradicate plastic from its award-winning business, for example, by using 100% recycled paper seed packets featuring vegetablebased glue seals, green-hued biodegradable bubble-wrap and paper parcel tape, all of which form part of its striving-for-best-ethical-practice ethos. Pick from a range of beautifully designed vintage style seed packets such as wild flower seeds from species derived and grown in the UK, which can be personalised with words and imagery to individually suit. Or why not select one of its charity wedding favours for an extra philanthropical gesture? What’s more, for every order over £50, they’ll plant a tree, thus further reducing your carbon footprint as well as your act of goodwill. wildflower-favours.co.uk

Wedding in a Teacup This fabulous online boutique presents a plethora of eco-friendly favours including native wild flower seeds that not only make a sweet-looking addition to your tabletops but will help accentuate a flower-filled wedding and, once planted, will help our butterflies and bees to flourish too! Alternatively, opt for a playful vibe with the personalised name badges and mirrors – or craft your own bespoke favours with the help of a range of green-fingered boxes, stickers and labels for the likes of homemade (or ethically sourced) jams, candles, confectionery, goodie bags and floraldecorations-cum-favours. weddinginateacup.co.uk

Cornish Mermaid Soap Co.

WOW FACTOR From a tropical biome to a tipi glade, here’s some extraordinary settings for a truly standout celebration

Fal River Cruises Love the water? Then why not throw your wedding on it? Fal River Cruises’ beautiful wooden vessel, Moyana, hosts post-ceremony cruises and receptions, allowing guests to enjoy the festivities while exploring the picture-perfect creeks of the Cornish riverside: it might be a laid-back pasty supper, a champagne and canapés reception, or a starry-eyed cruise complete with live music at nightfall. While legally binding ceremonies must take place on dry land, Moyana is now hosting humanist ceremonies on board for vows immersed in the sea air and natural beauty of this corner of Cornwall. Moor up at a private Mark Shaw

cove, take a dip in the water and return to your vessel for a relaxed feast, evening merriment and the ultimate in riverside romance. falriver.co.uk

Trebah This dreamlike Cornish valley is filled with colourful tunnels of exotic blooms leading down to a private sandy beach. A sublime botanical backdrop for weddings all year round, the magnificent collection of rhododendrons, magnolias and camellias burst with colour in spring; then there’s the giant gunnera of summer, the clouds of hydrangea in autumn and the plants of the southern hemisphere abloom in winter. The house sits above this carnival of colour, offering views across the gardens and the Helford beyond. Take your vows before up to 40 guests and spend those heady just-married moments exploring this tucked-away Cornish paradise. trebahgarden.co.uk

Liberty Pearl

Polhawn Fort Nestled in a tucked-away corner of the Rame Peninsula – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – Polhawn Fort offers a private, picturesque and truly unforgettable setting for a wedding. The Napoleonic Fort has an original drawbridge, spiral staircase and vaulted hall; outside, you’ll find jawdropping vistas across Cornwall’s south coast, a private beach and flower-filled gardens stretching up the cliffside. Get married in the Napoleonic Hall, the intimate Emperor’s Room or the al fresco Garden House, nestled amidst wild flowers. Head to the beach for shoreline celebrations, and throw an al fresco feast from the Mediterranean-inspired Roof Garden Terrace. With accommodation for 24 and a blooming gardens of summer to the tumbling waves and twinkling lights of winter – Polhawn offers romance in dreamy abundance. polhawnfort.com

The Alverton There’s much to wow at The Alverton, an elegant hotel nestled in the heart of Truro, but the Great Hall must be its most breathtaking feature. Dating back to 1830, the spectacular vaulted ceiling, balcony and marble staging make it a grand and incredibly romantic backdrop for ceremonies and receptions for up to 140 guests with an exquisite bespoke menu by the hotel’s talented two AA Rosette chefs to match. Flanked by gardens and terraces, there are gorgeous outdoor spaces galore, and a choice of more intimate settings for ceremonies. The bedrooms, meanwhile, are the epitome of luxury with their brand of sumptuous styling, original features and modern touches. Spend your wedding night in stately style in the Bishop Suite with its lavish super-king bed and double roll-top bathtubs. thealverton.co.uk

Eden Project The Eden Project offers the balmy temperatures and vibrant atmosphere of a destination wedding – without having to leave Cornwall! Take your vows amidst the scents and colours of the Mediterranean Biome or the lush foliage of the Rainforest Biome. Hold an after-dark reception in the Mediterranean Biome and make merry beneath the illusion of a starry night sky. There’s also The Gallery, which offers panoramic views of the biomes and space for a whopping 500 people. With sustainability at the heart of the venue’s ethos, your carefully sourced feast might be served with exclusive Eden Project wine. Guests can be transported by a decorated land train and those keen to make a showstopping arrival can abseil into the biome or fly down the SkyWire! edenproject.com

Exchange vows in the magical yurt village, the coolly styled restaurant, The Kitchen on the Beach, or in an eco lodge with breathtaking balcony views. After the vows, enjoy a loved-up stroll across the sands before returning for delicious food fresh from the clay oven and stargazing around the firepit.

Treseren Described as a ‘homestead under the stars’, Treseren sits in a secluded countryside setting, just 10 minutes from the north coast. A stylish retreat where Georgian character and Austen-esque romance is woven with modern accents, Shepherds House is flanked by two-and-a-half acres of greenery, with winding paths leading to secret flower-filled gardens. Specialising in small weddings with accommodation for 18, choose from a romantic ceremony in the Wedding Room or a candlelit winter elopement in the Drawing Room. There’s also the oh-so dreamy option of garden vows beneath a moon gate festooned with blooms followed with lawn games, feasting and cosying up around the firepit as the sun slips behind the leafy horizon.

Self-care is a buzzword at the moment, and there’s a great reason for that – it’s important! Encourage your bridesmaids to take a moment for themselves with these natural soy wax candles from Self Care Co. that encompass a blend of essential oils in incredible scents. Plus, 10% of Self Care Co.’s profits are shared across three charities: Young Minds, Street Link and The Calm Zone. frankly.store

Bags of style Whether it’s as part of their wedding day ensemble or a gift for them to use forevermore, your bridesmaids will love these Stacy Chan pouches. Available in a whole host of colours (great if you’re trying to match or mismatch them with bridesmaids’ dresses!), they’re made from Italian leather and come in three sizes. stacychan.com

The joy of jewellery Make a statement with this modern and super-chic jewellery for your most-loved ladies. Made by Just Trade, a company that works with groups across India, Ecuador, Peru and Vietnam supporting, training and providing life-changing opportunities to disadvantaged groups, the collection of hand-cut pieces are perfect for wearing on the wedding day and beyond! frankly.store

PARENTS Fill with flowers

These beautiful vases are begging to be filled with blooms and petals aplenty. Designed specifically for the Eden Project by LSA International, the sustainably produced glassware has a distinctive shape, making them ideal for displaying natural and colourful arrangements of grasses and wild flowers. edenproject.com/shop

Coastal living These handmade wooden coasters from Cornish Whispers come in a variety of designs, including those for gardening lovers, carpenters and gin-drinkers, as well as Celtic and art deco coasters, and even biscuit and retro sweet designs! We love the set of six bug-inspired coasters with a lovely wax finish, ideal for nature lovers. cornishwhispers.co.uk

Happy hamper A collection of goodies from The Cheese Shed will give cheese connoisseurs a real treat. Choose from ranges such as the Devon Selection, which includes five cheeses - a cheddar, a non-cheddar cows’ cheese, a blue, a goats’ cheese and a soft cheese - to provide real contrast across the selection. You can even have them delivered in a wicker hamper, ready for you to add in any other personal favourites, such as port or pickles. thecheeseshed.com

Cutting edge …And of course, no cheeseboard is complete without cheese knives to complete the occasion! This set of four miniature cheese knives is made from stainless steel with a sophisticated copper finish, and come beautifully presented in a gift box. Nothing cheesy about these! penelopetom.com

Soap with a smile These luscious-smelling soaps are inscribed with a sweet message, guaranteed to raise a smile every time they’re used. Made by Arthouse Unlimited, 100% of its sales revenue goes back into the artists’ collective, supporting adults with complex epilepsy and learning disabilities. frankly.store

CALL OF THE SEA

Charlee and Luke’s sand-betweenthe-toes celebrations at Lusty Glaze featured games, a barbecue and a live band on the beach “Luke and I are both firefighters and first met when I moved stations following a promotion, which meant I was his boss… and no, it was not love at first sight!” laughs Charlee. “Due to the nature of the job, we would spend a lot of time at work. Most firefighters would agree that you become like a second family, so it didn’t feel that odd when he showed up at my door with a bunch of flowers after I injured my knee in a fire,” she explains of how they became a couple. “Three years later (after a million hints from his mum, Beryl) Luke proposed in his hometown of Lancaster on the steps of Ashton Memorial,” Charlee reveals. Sadly, Beryl passed away a few days later but continued to play an instrumental role in the wedding by influencing many of the themes, such as the lavender in the buttonholes and flower crown. “It’s a smell that reminded the family of our trips to the South of France where Beryl would buy all things smelling of lavender!” says Charlee. “She had a special place at the head table and was mentioned fondly in the speeches, a reflection of how remarkable she truly was.” From the outset, the couple were armed with a clear vision for their day: “a smallish, casual, beach wedding vibe”, which led them on a venue hunting trip to Thailand before Luke discovered Lusty Glaze. “My family go to Cornwall every year in the summer and it always feels like home, so off we went for a weekend visit from Essex to Newquay and surfed, had dinner at Lusty and left with the biggest smiles on our faces!” she says. The pair set about designing a day to maximise the time spent with loved ones while incorporating their favourite things styled with “a blend of colours that reflected nature and relaxation”. “We were determined to make the most of our day by having an early ceremony, giving us plenty of time for beach games like volleyball followed by a dip in the sea,” Charlee says. The flowers were a central component, perfectly matching Charlee’s brief of “elegant, natural flowers that reflect British beauty with lots of foliage and sea-like colours, but also bright and tropical plants that remind me of being in Thailand, and scents of eucalyptus and lavender!”. It was achieved by the stunning mix of dahlias, stocks, ferns and shells that adorned the tabletops. “A good food moment for me was sitting on the sand with a glass of champagne in one hand and a pasty in the other; I think all my dreams had come true at that point!” recalls Charlee. “It was great to see the evening guests’ eyes light up when they realised there were scones and a pizza oven; an extra we knew wouldn’t be wasted.” As for advice for couples in the throes of planning, Charlee suggests creating something that you want to be a part of, that you enjoy doing together and ensuring your wedding day reflects that experience. “If it’s not enjoyable, stop and let it go because it’s easy to get caught up and lose sight of the things that do not matter.”

A WINTER’S TALE

From sun-up to magical moonrise, Chloe and Sam’s lavender-filled wedding provided a series of unforgettable moments in the heart of a Cornish winter Chloe first met Sam during their summer holidays from university when they were both working seasonal jobs at Polzeath Beach. “We were friends for two years before our relationship grew, with Sam even mentioning being ‘friend-zoned’ in the early days in his speech!” reveals Chloe. Polzeath provided the picturesquely apt location for Sam’s proposal when he chose a cold and sun-spilled November morning to embark upon one of their favourite coastal walks to Pentire Point. “As we were enjoying the views over Polzeath and out to sea, Sam got down on one knee and popped the question!” recalls Chloe. The couple chose to get married at St Michael’s Church in Porthilly. “It was really important to us to have our ceremony there as it was so close to where we first met and got engaged,” explains Chloe. Selecting Trevenna for their reception venue was another easy decision. “From the minute we arrived we knew it was where we wanted to bring all our family and friends together to celebrate our marriage,” says Chloe. “It’s the perfect setting!” Though their wedding date was close to Christmas, the pair opted out of a yuletide-themed wedding in favour of a lavender theme with purples, greys and greens, which was carried in an array of details from the lavender-scented invitations to favours of homemade lavender candles, and bunches of lavender in the bouquets, buttonholes and fresh garlands on the trestle tables. “We did have little touches of Christmas though with a huge bunch of mistletoe over the dance floor and a few classic Christmas songs in the evening!” adds Chloe. The tweed suits worn by the groom and his groomsmen also featured lavender ties and pocket squares, while Chloe was flanked in her stunning dress by bridesmaids in beautiful ‘lavender fog’ gowns. On arrival at Trevenna, Mountain Ash performed in the Threshing Barn whilst guests tucked into arrival drinks and canapés ahead of a feast of chicken breast and pork tenderloin with all the trimmings, completed by a divine trio of desserts. “Our favourite moment has to be sitting to have our meal and looking around the room filled with all our family and friends laughing, smiling and enjoying themselves. It’s a lovely feeling to know they are all there to celebrate you both and your marriage,” says Chloe. The evening’s mixture of sweet treats and DJ entertainment proved another highlight (“the little ones absolutely loved toasting their own marshmallows and making their own s’mores!”), but it was a few stolen moments in nature that gave Chloe and Sam their most magical memories. “Not only were we lucky enough to have a beautiful sunny day in December, with a stunning sunrise as we were getting ready, what was extra special was later in the evening we witnessed the most beautiful moonrise! The moon looked huge and was emerging from the moors. It was amazing to watch it rise – something we had never experienced before!” As her top tip to other couples, she says: “Try to relax and enjoy the process. Give yourselves plenty of time so you don’t have to rush anything, just do little and often and before you know it, everything is in place! And don’t worry about the day, it all comes together so perfectly so the little things you worried about don’t even matter and it’s just the best day of your lives!”

SUMMER LOVING

Family pitched in to help create Selina and Iain’s homemade and heartfelt summer wedding “We met at our university boat club toga party in 2007,” says Selina of her and Iain’s serendipitous first encounter. “I had come around to the idea that maybe marriage was never going to happen, but that was OK because all I really wanted was to spend the rest of my life with Iain, married or not. Then he proposed one windy February Sunday on the beach at Gwithian!” she reveals. “It was a complete surprise for me. Iain had been planning it for months, having a beautiful custom-made engraved ring made, asking my dad and planning a family weekend in Cornwall (on the pretext of my brother’s birthday). After the proposal, all the family – who had been hiding in the dunes – joined us for champagne. It was perfect!” Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens provided the picturesque backdrop to their beach-themed day, where an al fresco ceremony took place in the pagoda before a tipi reception in the gardens. “We loved the venue for its gorgeous natural setting and views across to St Michael’s Mount,” explains Selina. “And on a practical front, the facilities on-site make it much easier to organise.” Casually styled, the day’s décor centred on a blue and yellow colour scheme to reflect their coastal-gazing location, which comprised bunting and more than 1,000 origami cranes. “The cranes were my mum’s idea and we got the whole family involved making them over the long dark winter evenings and stringing them up the day before the wedding!” says Selina. Other family-made touches appeared in the invitations, which were based on a specially commissioned painting by the mother of the groom, Lyn, and the fudge wedding favours made by Selina’s brother and his girlfriend. “The name labels on these doubled up as our place settings,” says Selina before adding her top word of advice. “Lots of people will want to help, so get everyone involved if you can!” Another handcrafted element was Selina’s stunning gown, which was a bespoke creation by local dress designer, Claire L. Headdon. “I’d been really struggling to find something within my budget that I actually felt comfortable in, as I’m very much a jeans and T-shirt kind of girl!” explains Selina. “Then on a trip home I found Claire and all my worries disappeared. She listened to my ideas and produced the perfect outfit for me. It fitted perfectly and was lovely and soft and comfortable to wear all day and dance in all night!” Along with the venue, décor and dress, the sense-spoiling treats didn’t end there, with a barbecue-themed feast of beef burgers, halloumi skewers, pulled pork baps and falafel burgers with a variety of salads. “Desserts were sticky toffee pudding or lemon tart – perfect for a sunny midsummer’s day!” adds Selina. “Our photographer, Arianna, blended into the background really well and got us some beautiful photos of everyone having lots of fun!” says Selina as a side note before sharing her all-time favourite moment from her and Iain’s fun-filled day. “Stepping out from the pagoda, just married, holding my husband’s hand and seeing the happy faces of all our friends and family celebrating with us,” enthuses Selina. “We did it!”

TASTE OF CORNWALL

Emma and Simon threw the ultimate festival wedding, filled with Cornish flavours and fun vibes on the north coast Emma and Simon first met while working at the same bank and got engaged as they watched the sunset over Polzeath, their favourite place. “On a quick trip there to have a beer at The Cracking Crab, we sat at ‘our bench’ to enjoy the beer and view, and I asked her!” reveals Simon. Porthilly Farm in Rock provided the picturesque backdrop to their self-styled “relaxed, festival vibe” celebrations, which featured a tipi styled “a bit boho – with lashings of Kernow!” laughs Emma. The couple’s outfit choices reflected the casual yet charismatic look of the day. Simon donned beige chinos accessorised with braces and a handmade bow tie, while Emma selected a stunning lace gown with a plunge neckline and open back, finished with a colourful flower crown, cathedral veil and a pair of customised Converse. After the wedding ceremony at St Michael’s Church, the wedding party strolled in the sunshine to the scenic setting of their festival reception. A ukulele band provided the upbeat soundtrack as guests tucked into a Cornish cream tea while enjoying various games on the water’s edge. Food vans served up a platter of culinary delights including falafels, woodfired sourdough pizzas, Texas-style slow-smoked Cornish brisket and buttermilk chicken. The deliciousness continued as the speeches were delivered alongside tipples from Knightor Winery and German-inspired Bundt cakes, arriving in statement style courtesy of Kern’s head-turning French van, Beyoncé. Beers from Sharps and Skinners Brewery, and cocktails from mobile bar The Rhubarb Roller continued the sensory spoils before entertainment in the form of a DIY glitter bar and an electric performance by live band, Cyderfex. A supper of traditional fish and chips complete with Cornish salt and vinegar and condiments from the Cornish Condiment Co kept revellers’ appetites at bay, while the fireworks finale provided the perfect endnote to Emma and Simon’s eclectic yet distinctly Cornish day. The couple rounded off the festivities in style with a barbecue the next day, with local meat supplied by Watts Butcher. “Being able to show all our family and friends why we love Cornwall so much – including drinks at Polzeath on Friday night – was wonderful,” reflects Simon, while a standout moment for the couple was “walking down to the field, leading our guests and enjoying the view from Rock to Padstow while playing games and enjoying everything Cornish that we were able to share”. “Use spreadsheets and embrace what you want; yes it’s one day – but it’s the best day and you’ll only regret what you don’t do,” asserts Emma as wise words of advice for other couples seeking to strike a similarly characterful tone to their day.

FAIRYTALE IN FALMOUTH

From the stationery and the soundtrack to sharing platters aplenty, Laura and Matt’s coastal wedding was a personal, fun-filled and crowd-pleasing affair Laura and Matt first met at a mutual friend’s summer wedding in Cyprus before becoming engaged three years later during their own romantic moment in London. “I first told Laura I loved her on Albert Bridge over the River Thames back in 2015,” reveals Matt. “In 2018 we went back to London for the weekend. We went for a meal at the restaurant we had been to on our first date and afterwards we walked over Albert Bridge. I told Laura I needed to tie my shoe lace, she turned around and I was on one knee and asked her if she would marry me. Eventually, after she stopped crying, she said yes!” Falmouth’s Pendennis Castle was the fairytale venue for the couple’s ceremony, where cannon fire signified their status as Mr and Mrs. “My favourite moment was saying our vows,” says Laura. “Because we wrote our own, it was so meaningful and emotional! I felt like our whole world fell into place when we said our vows in front of everyone. It was a very special and intimate moment that we shared with all of our loved ones.” Their reception at The Greenbank Hotel was styled “around the things we love”, including flowers in gin bottles as centrepieces alongside a seaside-inspired cake. The sationery was lovingly created by Matt, who is an artist and illustrator and sketched the designs for the table plan, invitations and save the dates, as well as caricatures of each guest for favours. “It was so special and added a lot of humour to the day too!” comments Laura. “As Matt and I are quite sociable and so are our family and friends, we wanted our meal to be really sociable too, so we decided to have sharing platters for starters, mains and desserts,” says Laura of the informal wedding breakfast. Lip-smacking delights of prawns and halloumi with roasted red onion rosemary focaccia for starters were followed by roast rack of pork chop crackling, seafood chorizo stew and slow-cooked beef brisket, and the chef’s speciality pavlova to finish. A pasty supper and evening of dancing to the pitch-perfect party tunes of Totally Funked Up provided another standout moment for Laura and Matt. “It was indescribable,” says Laura. “Our hearts have never been so full; it was truly a celebration we will remember for the rest of our lives – especially when ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ came on and everyone jumped into the air with beer in hand and soaked the ceiling!” Looking back on their joy-filled day, Matt recommends being as organised as possible. “Get as much planned and organised beforehand as you can. The less you have to do on the day, the more you can relax and enjoy it,” he says. “And don’t drink too much the night before; have a good night’s sleep so you feel fresh and ready for your big day.” “Be true to yourselves,” adds Laura. “The whole reason for it all is to say your vows and celebrate in front of the people you love and ultimately, when you’re faced with your soulmate at the altar, nothing else matters!”

TIME OF OUR LIVES

Cherry and Emanuel had just five weeks to plan their gorgeous garden wedding in the elegant and intimate setting of Treseren A mutual friend first introduced Cherry to Emanuel while he was working in her home city of Manila in the Philippines. “We automatically clicked and from then on we started seeing each other almost every day until he needed to come back to London,” she recalls. “In March 2019 we went to Japan together and I had planned a day on Bunny Island to propose,” says Emanuel. “However, two days into the trip, we had returned to our hotel room in Tokyo after a day of walking; I could not keep my plans a secret and popped the question!” After a few days of research, Emanuel came across Treseren and asked the owner Emma Caddis if it was possible to organise the event in only five weeks. “She just responded: ‘Let’s do it’… so we did!” exclaims Cherry. With all hands on deck, Emma’s husband Paul provided the photography while their son orchestrated the soundtrack. “Her daughter gave us a slice of cake with sparkles and a touch of cuteness while blowing bubbles! It was very homely and intimate with the family’s added passion, effort and warmth to make everything perfect,” reflects Cherry. Taking their styling cue from the venue itself, Cherry chose pastels for the seasonal flowers that played perfectly off the greenery of Treseren’s treefilled backdrop. She wore a beautiful lace princess gown, while Emanuel got the chance to wear a tailor-made suit he’d had made in Thailand four years previously. “I knew at the time that I would not wear it unless it was a special day,” he says. “However I never imagined that the only time I would wear it would be on my wedding day!” An intimate garden ceremony took place in front of a huge chestnut tree flanked by pretty floral arrangements, providing Cherry with her personal highlight from the day. “My favourite moment is definitely when I saw Emanuel waiting there, seeing my mum teary-eyed, and the wedding vows that made everyone laugh and cry at the same time. Plus, meeting everyone on Emanuel’s side for the first time ever, except for his parents who I met just days before the wedding,” she reminisces. After the vows, the celebrations commenced in the sun-filled gardens followed by the wedding feast in the ambient setting of the house. “We cut down on some stuff that we didn’t need, but our cake was definitely not one of those!” says Cherry of their two show-stopping confections, which featured the luscious flavours of salted caramel and dark chocolate. “Choose an all-inclusive venue if your time is limited. It doesn’t mean that you cannot customise your wedding,” Cherry suggests to other couples planning within a short time frame. “Work as a team, especially when it comes to decision-making. Consider each other’s side and meet inbetween by weighing up what is practical and realistic,” she reveals as the relationship learning curves of planning a wedding. “Most importantly: planning can be tiring and stressful, but it is a one-time thing that you both could be enjoying at the same time! So have fun and don’t forget to spend time with each other!”

COUNTRY LOVE

The sun made a last-minute appearance especially for Caroline and Alex’s beautifully rustic country wedding Having met and become friends at university, it wasn’t until Caroline moved away from Bristol that she and Alex became a couple. “Our friends and families were not at all surprised when we announced our relationship!” laughs Caroline. It was a beautiful September day when Alex proposed in Ashton Court, a country oasis in the city, which was a huge surprise for Caroline. “I did not see it coming at all,” she says. “He got down on one knee in a quiet spot – I was speechless and totally in shock, but of course I said yes!” Deciding to get married in Cornwall where Caroline grew up and Alex enjoyed many a memorable family holiday, the couple were drawn to Nancarrow Farm’s rural and relaxed setting. “It fitted exactly what we wanted,” Caroline explains. “We both love the countryside and didn’t want anything bling or fussy. It’s in a beautiful setting, peaceful and with a lot of rustic charm.” Opting “to keep things simple and rustic”, bunting was used to decorate the Rusty Barn for the ceremony while they undertook the massive task of handmaking nearly 2,000 coloured origami cubes to decorate the barn for the wedding breakfast. “It was a lot of work but we were very happy with the result!” comments Caroline. Friends and family pitched in to help make the day a wholly personalised affair, including the creation of Caroline’s wedding dress: a beautiful blush silk satin gown with a chiffon overlay and a corded lace bodice that was designed, cut and stitched by her mum on the kitchen table of the family home. Drawing on the season as well as the setting, the floristry was another eye-catching element that helped create the gorgeous look of the day. “We wanted to take advantage of all the beautiful flowers available in June, especially sweet peas and peonies. They all looked glorious,” says Caroline. The ceremony was followed by drinks and canapés in the courtyard to the relaxed sounds of musician, Tom Dale, and was followed by the speeches and wedding breakfast. “The chefs at Nancarrow sat down with us and came up with a menu based on our food experiences and the things we love to eat,” says Caroline. “We went for a salad to start, then Nancarrow’s take on beef tagliata and Italian meringue to finish. The evening food was lamb kebabs and flatbreads. It was all delicious and perfect for a June day.” Garden games and guest mingling ensued, ahead of an evening of dancing to the unique soul and jazz-infused sounds of Evelyn and the Vipers and a sparkler send-off. “The whole day was so special, I’m not sure we could pick one out,” says Caroline when asked to select a favourite moment. “But we did love the dancing!” By word of advice, she says: “Don’t sweat the small stuff. It’s easy to say now but don’t lose sight of why you’re getting married. And make sure you get a good photographer. When the day is over the photos are a fantastic reminder of all the little details. Looking through them is like reliving the day again.”

LONG TIME LOVE

Bryanna and Will’s Cornish-inspired celebrations paid homage to family and friends to ensure a creative day filled with food, drink and singing aplenty! Having first met as students at Truro College, it wasn’t until years later when Bryanna and Will were both living in London that they reconnected on Tinder and went on their official first date. “Our third date was Boxing Day at Will’s parents’ house in Cornwall and our fourth date was New Year’s Eve in London with my friends! We bought our East Dulwich flat together two years later, along with our little Frenchie dog, Frank,” says Bryanna. Selecting St Just in Roseland Church as their venue to tie the knot was an easy choice, as Bryanna explains. “I knew since being a little girl that I would always choose to get married in this beautiful church in the village of my family home. With its subtropical gardens and amazing creek views – and most importantly its sentimental value – it was just perfect.” The couple also fell for the waterside charms of Place Manor for their reception venue, which provided a beautiful backdrop for three days of extended celebrations during their “relaxed, fun, festival-themed wedding with botanical touches.” “Our main inspiration was Cornwall!” says Bryanna, who walked down the aisle with her dad to ‘Cornwall my Home’ performed by her Uncle Brian’s choir, Rhos Keur, ahead of further Cornish singing at the church and “big singalongs to ‘Trelawny’ during the reception drinks. I wrote everyone’s place names in oyster shells and my mum – whose creativity was key in the overall ‘look’ of our wedding – made some amazing signs, including the table names of our favourite Cornish beaches. Will is a keen surfer so we had a surfboard as our guest book, which now takes pride of place on our living room wall!” Infusing a botanical look through white and green floristry accented with blush pink and oranges, many of the flowers were sourced from Bryanna’s late gran’s garden. “We had lots of her rosemary and peonies incorporated into our bouquets, which was so special,” notes Bryanna. The Tregony Teachers performed classic covers during the drinks reception as guests drank Prosecco, ale, lager and elderflower spritz alongside a tantalising menu of cocktails from Airstream bar, The Buffalo. The Hidden Hut cooked up a feast outdoors, “which added to the mini-festival feel,” presenting canapés followed by a selection of paellas and various sides and salads, all rounded off with a smattering of desserts including cheesecake, apple pie and chocolate cake. The Choons got the party started in their signature energetic style, giving guests an entertaining evening that featured more delights from The Buffalo alongside a hog roast, pasty supper, cheeseboard, wedding cake and a fireworks finale. “Our overall favourite moment is probably when all our guests gathered together at our reception drinks and joined in with the singalong to ‘Trelawny’ and ‘South Australia’,” reflects Bryanna of her unforgettable wedding day. “Pick suppliers you have confidence in and trust, and book them well in advance where possible – this means less to worry about,” she says by word of advice. “Take a moment to yourselves as newly-weds at some point during your day to go off and let the ‘wow this is our actual wedding day!’ feeling sink in. Plus, it’s a great photo opportunity.”

Special guests. Tell your wedding

Be personal. Consider personalising your

favours; you could even write a little note to each guest, explaining how much it means to you that they are there to celebrate your wedding. Jessica

Bathroom basics. Leave packs in the

bathrooms filled with essentials to help with everything from a broken bra strap and sore feet to hair not quite staying in place. Plasters, blister pads, body tape, hairspray, deodorant and chewing gum will keep guests refreshed. Jenny

Good morning. Ease your guests’ hangovers (and your own!) with a hearty brunch before they set off for home. This affords you more time with guests you might have missed the night before, and is a great way to round off your celebrations. Jessica
