SHARE YOUR LOVE STORY
Patrick and I have been together now for 10 years! We met through friends of friends and since then have created so many memories together. We love travelling the world and going on holidays together.
STYLE OF YOUR WEDDING
We wanted a low key wedding with just our closest friends and family, we originally looked at venues abroad but couldn't find something that worked for us. We visited Askham Hall and fell in love with the grounds. We styled our bridesmaids in champagne and bronze to try get feel of the autumn colours.
VENUE DETAILS
Askham Hall Penrith in the Lake District. This venue allowed our closest family and friends stay with us for two nights at the venue. The gardens are amazing and we fell in love with them the first time we viewed.
FINDING THE DRESS
I tried on a few dresses before I went to Willow and White and knew I wanted a strapless dress. When I tried on Alba I fell in love, but also fell in love with the bodice of Cleo. Natasha at Willow and White was amazing with me and worked with Love Story London to create my bespoke dress.
HIGHLIGHTS OF YOUR DAY
I don't have one highlight the whole day was perfect. The weather made it absolutely amazing so meant we could do our first dance outside underneath the festoon lighting. The main highlight was celebrating with our closest friends and family they made our day perfect.
YOUR WORDS OF WISDOM TO FUTURE BRIDES
Enjoy every moment, it all goes so fast. Make sure you take some time with you and your husband, we loved spending an hour going away for photos to just spend it the two of us.
