    Our beautiful bride Rachel simply glows on her special day, in a stun-ning fairytale of an off-the-shoulder gown with an elegant A-line silhouette, paired perfectly with classic black tie lewks for the groomsmen. This day was utterly packed with personal touches; from the homemade cake to the thrifted MOH gown, and the endless stream of hot, fresh coffee from the cutest Defender coffee van around! Perfect for the wedding of a pair of coffee lovers who began their love story in a coffee shop.

    Beautiful Tower Hill Barns is all about the relaxed luxury. A dreamy barn venue that has successfully curated a blend of rustic charm and contemporary elegance, making it the perfect place for our lovely couple to celebrate their nuptials.

    Megan & Lucy said: Rise Hall approached Belle Bijoux to do something Valentines-inspired and then we saw Autumn Rose’s ‘bow’ inspired stationery which gave us the pure inspiration we needed to run with a concept inspired by LOVE. We really wanted to give modern and luxury party vibes, so chose to go with an engagement style set up. We wanted it to be pretty and cool yet still ooze class and sophistication, to honour the beautiful stately surroundings at Rise Hall.

    The team said: We wanted to highlight that an outdoor focused wedding can still take place out of high season months. The theme was an autumn/winter style with a warming colour scheme, lighting and candles. The autumn colours were at the forefront of the ideas as the trees around Helperby Walled Gardens looked stunning with the burnt oranges and reds. The centrepiece of the shoot was the amazing stretch tent marquee by Empty Quarter Events.

    Today’s featured wedding is a gorgeous, quintessentially Lake District celebration! With tables named after their favourite Wainwrights peaks, a remote pebble beach proposal and an au natural olive green and white colour palette, it simply doesn’t get much more rustic than this. But, don’t worry, this celebration is also extremely pretty, with heaps of fresh florals and foliage decor peppered throughout the day, adding that feminine, springtime feel.
