Home Made Colourful Country Barn Wedding

Carragh and Annie tied the knot on the 1st August 2015 at Knipe Hall in beautiful Cumbria. The setting, those views, wow.

The whole wonderful day was a real home made affair, with Carragh and Annie crafting the décor themselves, Annie’s mum arranged the pretty blooms and their bridesmaid baked the cake.

Carragh and Annie looked gorgeous, I especially adore those red bow adorned heels teamed with red lipstick. Such a loving, happy celebration.

Thanks goes to Tiree Dawson for sharing these divine shots with us.

ADVICE FOR OTHER COUPLES | Enjoy the day from start to finish, it goes so quickly! Also make sure to get 5 minutes together after the ceremony and before the wedding breakfast to take everything in. Friends told us to do this and it was very much appreciated. We made sure there was a bottle of champagne in our room waiting for us.
