Inspiration

I don't know about you but I want to jump right into the pink roll top booze bath at this industrial wedding at The West Mill in Derbyshire. A lovely focal point and a great way to display all the alcohol. The amazing decor doesn't stop there. There are copper frames with perspex signs, moss-covered table numbers on tree stumps, and not one but three beautiful wedding cakes covered in gold leaf. The chalkboard sign accompanying them made me chuckle too. Both Leanne and Matt look super fierce in their wedding attire, with Leanne adding a fabulous customised leather jacket to her bridal look. Every image captured by Rosie Kelly of them and their wonderful wedding will have you gushing with love and searching for the PINterest button!

Childhood Sweethearts

Leanne & Matt: Me and Matt are childhood sweethearts and we always spoke about getting married from a young age. We wanted a really relaxed day with all our friends and family.

Industrial Wedding Venue The Westmill in Darley Abbey

The venue we picked was The Westmill in Darley Abbey. We pretty much decided it was the one as soon as we pulled up in the car park. The building is just stunning and the quirky interior stole our hearts.

Fishtail Allure Bridal Gown

I wanted my dress to be one that definitely stood out. I went for an Allure Bridals dress which I bought from Lori G Bridal Studio. I was so worried about finding a dress as I’m only 5ft1 I thought I would really struggle. The service I received from start to finish was incredible!

Bridal Hairstyle

My hair I chose to have it up as I didn’t want my hair to take away anything from my dress. I also had my bridesmaids up in a loose plait as all my bridesmaids had different length hair. My hairdresser did an incredible job of squeezing in seven bridesmaids, my hair and the mother of the brides.

Bridal Makeup

For my make up I wanted something that stood out but not too much which is why I went for a bright red lip.

Afordable Bridesmaid Dresses

The bridesmaid dresses I bought pretty much as soon as we got engaged. I knew what colour scheme I wanted before we even began planning. I bought them at a really affordable from Sheln

Blue Moss Bros. Grooms Suits

The suits were hired from Moss Bros and we went for a blue Ted Baker suit with pink and green ties. The blue really bought out the green bridesmaids dresses.

Greenery Wedding Flowers

The flowers were very kindly done by a friends mum. I didn’t actually want flowers so we decided to go with greenery which again went perfectly with the suits and dresses.

Pink Roll Top Booze Bath Wedding Decor with Copper & Perspex Details

The venue is a really popular one so it was important to us we had props that our guests would remember us for. We served our alcohol from a large pink roll top bath. We also had some copper frames made by Leanne’s brother, a.k.a Grove Joinery Services. Hanging inside we had some Perspex signs made with copper wording from the very talented Megan Cattermole Styling. For the photos, I wanted to make sure we had some props which we could keep for the memories. I had a leather jacket which was hand painted with ‘Mrs. S’ and this was made by the incredibly talented Bee Davies. We also had some chalkboards made up with a few quotes we felt were appropriate and these were made by Chalked In Love.

Hexagon Tier Wedding Cake

For the cake, my best friend Emma gifted us our cake. I was adamant I wanted a hexagon bottom tier and the rest I left up to her because she was also one of my bridesmaids and I knew she would need to do something easy enough to get finished in time. I ended up with three incredible cakes which were a total surprise for us both.

Wedding Photography & Film

Finally, we needed someone to photograph and film our much awaited for big day. I found Rosie Kelly on Instagram and I booked her pretty much straight away. I loved her style of photography and plus she was really affordable. Equally, I met Emily at another event and knew she would be perfect to film our big day. The day was more perfect than we could have ever wished for.
