Inspiration

Deanne & Ollie travelled from their home in the Isle of Mann to the Lake District for their stylish, springtime Eden Barn wedding. Opting for the rustic vibes with seasonal flowers, the stunning 'Elsie' wedding dress from Recommended supplier, Made With Love, and two dogs of honour. Yes, Deanne & Ollie got their two precious fur babies involved and you need to see how dapper they look in the images below, taken by Recommended photographer, Esme Whiteside Photography.

Eden Barn Wedding

Deanne & Ollie's spring rustic Eden Barn wedding was decorated with plenty of seasonal flowers, included two handsome dogs of honour, and had a fun Birdie Photobooth for the evening. The couple adores their dogs and always wanted them involved in their wedding. The dogs were rocking around the entire day and evening at Eden Barn including during the dancing! Those smart doggy outfits are certainly a highlight. As all of the guests had to travel to Kirkby Stephen with the majority coming from the Isle of Man, the couple focused on just close friends and family. Plus, it was 20 degrees on the day! So it ended up feeling like a mini holiday for most of the guests who hadn’t left the island since the pandemic!

Made With Love Elsie Dress

Deanne always had her heart set on a Made With Love wedding dress after she stumbled across their Instagram many years before. She had the perfect trip finding her dream dress with her mum, all thanks to the lovely ladies at LOVE. Wow! We are obsessed with this dress! The lace. The bow detail on the sleeves. It is just utter perfection. Another fun feature of this beautiful Eden Barn wedding is that they had a live band! The band performed an acoustic set outside during the couple's portraits and played at the reception too. They also sang Deanne & Ollie's first dance song 'Never Seen Anything Quite Like You’ by The Script.

Rustic styling and a gorgeous barn wedding venue? A match made in heaven!

It’s tricky to pinpoint just one favourite moment. One that particularly stands out for me is when we snuck off for some golden hour photos, we had a moment to ourselves to reflect on the day. It all kind of feels like a dream and passes by so quickly, it was nice just to take it all in.
