Your Wedding Story

Huw and I met 8 years ago at our family home as he was friends with my brother. Immediately I knew we would be together! During my pregnancy with our first son he proposed one evening over dinner, I was ecstatic!

VENUE

I have always said from a young age I would want to hold our wedding reception at The Falcondale so after meeting Caroline for the first time at The Falcondale, we booked. We did have a browse at other local venues but nothing beat The Falcondale for us.

WEDDING RECEPTION

We decided on a vintage theme and wanted to be different so decided on an afternoon tea for the afternoon followed with an ox roast when the evening guests arrived. The afternoon tea was amazing, all the guests commented on the great variety and everything being homemade. The ox roast was also a big hit along with wedges and sauces.

THE DRESS

Finding my dress was the highlight of all the wedding planning. After visiting one shop I was left disheartened, there was nothing I liked enough to buy for the biggest day of our lives! Immediately after visiting the second shop I fell in love with a beautiful lace dress, it was exactly what I had in mind – and on the day I had endless compliments!

THE DECORATING

We had a bouncy castle for the children to enjoy and a sparkly dance floor from Pretty Seats and Bows in the evening, it looked amazing!

THE FLOWERS

Cadi and Grace sorted all of our flowers and I can’t thank them enough! The flowers were outstanding and exactly what I was looking for with our pastel/vintage theme. They suited all of our hessian/lace decor.

THE PHOTOGRAPHER

Susanne Ryder was our photographer, again we couldn’t fault her. She has been our photographer since having children and I wouldn’t have anyone else. She knows exactly what we like, taking the most natural photos, especially of the children.
