The Vibe Of Our Day

Our wedding was inevitably going to turn into its own mini-festival, given our shared love of festivals, music and creativity. The Old Summer Dairy, located in the heart of Somerset, was the perfect venue for a bespoke, outdoor, festival wedding, with views of Glastonbury Tor. I spent the months running up to the wedding making huge dreamcatchers using hula hoops and fake flowers, designing large MDF laser cut mandalas to frame the stage, and designing and making all the stationary and signage for the day. We also had a lot of creative input from friends and family, with James’ dad building 'J & H' letters and my dad, a beekeeper, making us hexagon-shaped pots of honey for our wedding favours.

Advice For Future Brides

At the very beginning, I recommend sitting down together with a big sheet of paper and some pens (and a bottle of wine!) and map out your ideas. Let your imaginations run away with you and bounce ideas off each other. Make a joint Pinterest page to share images you like. Split up the to-do list so it doesn’t feel like one person is doing more than the other. After all, it's a special day for you both and it’s great to feel you can rely on each other when things get stressful; teamwork makes the dream work!
