If you've grown up dreaming of a fairytale wedding then is there really any venue better suited than Lumley Castle?! Danni & Mark absolutely nailed it when it came to organising a fairytale wedding, from the decor, the dress and the entertainment, everything was like it was lifted out of a fairytale book.
For their ceremony in The Baron's Hall, Danni & Mark dressed their chairs with red satin sashes and opted for my Evie Foliage Canopy Trees with hanging tea lights. In a grand room such as this, the trees really helped to frame the couple, as well as providing that touch of fairytale whimsy. I also lined the aisle with vases and LED candles, and Danni provided a vase of flowers to match her sashes. The addition of the tealights to the canopy trees was my favourite touch and made the look even more romantic.
I didn't get to meet Danni on the morning of the wedding but I did meet Mark. In all my years of weddings, Mark stands out as one of the grooms I've met who just couldn't disguise all the emotions he was going through that morning. He was so focused on making sure his and Danni's day was everything they had envisioned, and despite not seeing them together in the same room, from the way he spoke about her and just the excitement on his face, his love for Danni was so romantically obvious, these two really did seem like they came straight out of a fairytale, such a fitting theme for these two love birds.
After the ceremony, the foliage trees were moved to behind the top table where everyone was then treated to entertainment from a court jester and a sword fighting performance, just perfect for the theme and venue. The wedding cake was provided by one of my recommended cake makers: Mrs BouCake, and the decoration of red summer fruits tied everything together perfectly.
It was such a wonderful way to round off my 2023 season and I also finally got to work with the amazingly talented photographer, Hayley Crone. Here's a selection of some more of my favourite images.
