Allison and Cameron's colourful wedding took place in Austin in October. They wanted a simple, low-pressure day, with minimal stress. "Cameron and I honestly never wanted a wedding", said the bride. "I get anxiety when I throw an event, and I am always worried if everyone else is having a good time that I forget to have a good time myself. However, since our mothers would never forgive us if we didn’t have one, we decided to do it our way. We wanted something low-stress and intimate, where we could mingle with all the guests and have a great time."

Low Key Wedding at Oxford University

Warren & Carmen

May 7, 2016

They met whilst both studying at Oxford University, so when Xandra and Steve got married that's where they wanted to do it. "We met at the Oxford University Mountaineering Club during our undergraduate studies," said the bride. "We had just moved to Edinburgh, so our initial plan was to have the celebrations there. Because we were not too familiar with the city, we found ourselves looking at wedding-packaged things, which felt too traditional. We eventually decided on Exeter College as a venue because it is a special place for both of us. From there, every detail had to feel awesome; I wanted every penny to support a business that I truly believed in and loved."
