What Made Our Day Unique

For us, our guests and our venue made our day so unique and special. Sefton Park Palm House is absolutely beautiful and we would recommend it to anyone. It’s perfect for weddings because it feels so grand yet intimate. Every photo looks impressive because the ceilings are so high and it's completely filled with beautiful tropical plants and flowers. All of that meant we didn't have to worry or even think about dressing the venue, we didn't add anything (well, apart from a glitter station, cigar bar and photo booth!). The venue was pretty much perfect as it was - our guests couldn't stop commenting on it on the day and afterwards. Oh, and it doesn’t rely on having good weather because it's all sheltered with an outsidey feel.

Inspiration & Styling

We wanted the whole thing to be fun. We didn't want it to be too sophisticated or stuffy, because that's not us. We didn't choose a traditional venue for that reason, and we tried to make sure we threw a proper party in the evening. We wanted things to be unexpected for our guests on the day because we felt that would give the whole thing a sense of fun. For example, we ate burgers and truffle fries with pistachio milkshakes. We had scratch cards as favours. We had a Daft Punk tribute band surprise our guests. My bridesmaids wore white with colourful shoes. And later we had a surprise waffle truck arrive serving sweet and savoury waffles for our guests.
