What Made Our Day Unique

"Having a garden wedding gave us complete control to make the day unique. It’s an unusually shaped garden with different pockets and flowers to explore on various levels so we knew (thanks to my parents gardening) it would create a tropical paradise in the midst of the Peak District! The glass-roof marquee was bespoke to fit the odd shape of the house but it worked and kept the space light, bright and merged within the outdoors. We also went wild with our decorations including a speakeasy late night bar, kissing booth, huge glitter station and piñata tree." - Ellie & Tony

Inspiration & Styling

We wanted it to be very individual to us and completely filled with fun and an overall festival-vibe. We wanted to only keep the traditions that made sense to us and go against the usual formula where we could. Visually, we also wanted to make it a luscious garden of Eden with a glass roofed marquee to make the most of the British summer. In terms of decorations, this was an ongoing project over the course of the whole year mainly by my mum and my aunt who managed to find everything from incredible huge candles and silver candle holders for the tables, to thousands of fairy lights for the bushes, to props for the photo booth, to old wood to create signposts with.
