Colourful Old Fort Wedding

Jeff + Mollie Weddings

January 10, 2016

Johnny and Michelle wanted a colourful, funky and fun wedding. "We wanted the environment and décor to be a visual representation of our personalities", said the bride. "This led us in a lot of different directions that included things like bright colours and watercolour cakes. We also had a bit of southwestern influence from the groom and bohemian style from the bride. It was great to see all these different ideas come together to form a single cohesive look for the wedding!"

Colourful Caribbean Cruise Inspired Wedding

Assassynation

December 7, 2015

Aimee and Lenny met when they were both working in Cruise Liners in the Caribbean in the early 2000s. "It was far from love at first sight", laughed the bride. "I used to think Lenny was a bit of an idiot! After we both left the ships we stayed (loose) friends on Facebook and in 2009 started a conversation on a photo that went like this: Aimee, 'You look fit Lenny! You're aging well!' Lenny, 'Why Thank you! No-one has ever told me I look fit before! Will you Marry me?' From there we started messaging one another about our 'fake' wedding. It eventually progressed to normal conversation, then daily chat which went on for a couple of months. It soon became apparent that, bizarrely, we were falling in love over our written messages (which we cutely called 'Love Mail' because Lenny's surname is Love!) So, eight years after we'd worked together, I arranged to meet up with this guy (who I used to hate) and who's emails were giving me butterflies. It was supposed to be for one night but I ended up staying for a week. And that was that!"

The most important thing to Zoe and Tom was that they brought both their families together to celebrate their wedding. "All we wanted was a completely inclusive and family-based wedding that everyone (big Irish and Geordie families!) was invited to and welcome at", Zoe said. "We wanted everyone to mingle and mesh together in one big happy muddle. I think this was probably the thing that most people commented on too which was nice."

Claire and Jon planned their wedding in just five months. They were hitched at St Julians, a private members club in Sevenoaks, Kent."Planning the wedding in just 20 weeks wasn't that difficult", began the bride. "As soon as we booked our venue we were shopping for decorations, favours, things for the tables... We made a lot of it ourselves and it was nice to have some personal touches to the day. Our venue was absolutely stunning with awesome views and such a beautiful building."

Kelly and Benjamin knew what they wanted for their wedding right from the start. They wanted an informal day with a festival vibe and lots and lots of colour! "The inspiration for our wedding was just 'let’s be ourselves'", Kelly said. "We've been to so many weddings over the years that all feel the same; a lot of people try and have this fancy formal affair when it really doesn't reflect who they are as people."
