Inspiration

A beautifully classic church ceremony followed by a romantic and elegant wedding breakfast at Ramster Hall in Surrey. The bride arrived at the church in a vintage white Rolls Royce wearing a Dana Bolton dress and a delicate Gypsophila flower crown. The bridal party - including two incredibly cute page boys - wore mismatched style powder blue bridesmaid dresses. This creative couple wanted to design and make everything they could! The bride designed the stationery and made the welcome sign and the groom made the giant garden games that helped keep everyone entertained. And as the groom is a beekeeper, there was only going to be one option for the wedding favours - honey (of course!) with personalised labels!

What Made Our Day Unique

We wanted a wedding that was relaxed, with an air of rustic French elegance. Ramster Hall played a big part in achieving both these things. Our addition of long banquette tables that were filled with beautiful flowers from Michelle Rust and laid by the Jacaranda team, was exactly how we had envisioned, after visiting the Classic Crockery showroom. Who along with Place Settings supplied the gold-rimmed etched glasses, gold cutlery, charger plates, brass candlesticks and blue table cloths. It was all the little attention to the detail that really made the day exactly how we wanted. The excellent food supplied by Jacaranda, which many our guests have complemented us on, also helped make the day perfect!

Ramster Hall

The tall ceiling and exposed beams of Ramster Hall created an impressive space for the wedding breakfast and celebrations. The long banquet tables were decorated in gorgeous pale blue and white flowers with gold details and candlesticks added. This couple loves the French Chateau style weddings and wanted to recreate this elegance right here in England. They took inspiration from the elegant but somewhat rustic style they loved and incorporated French elements into the day, from the wines to the cheese boards and charcuterie boards that guests tucked into during the evening buffet!

Inspiration & Styling

We were inspired by the French Chateau style of wedding, which we wanted to recreate in a English country house. Taking the best parts from both - like my wedding dress which was made from Calais lace by Dana Bolton, French wine and beers and cheese and charcuterie boards for our evening buffet. All set in the very English house and garden of Ramster Hall.
