Dreamy & Fairytale Outdoor Euridge Manor Wedding

Come with me and step into Poppy and Ryan’s fairytale wedding of dreams! Their wedding was set at Euridge Manor in the Cotswolds countryside and the whole day was utterly beautiful.

Taking inspiration from the stunning setting complete with rose gardens, they wanted to add to the romance with an enchanting feel. They added an abundance of roses throughout the pretty flower arrangements, shades of pink and red, twinkling candlelight and the most stylish outfits.

I love the ceremony location, set in front of the water, which they enjoyed rowing in later on in the most amazing portraits. So many smiles, so much love and of course, a seriously special celebration indeed.

Thanks ever so much to Jessy Papasavva Photography for sharing with us these sensational images. What a treat it is to be sharing them with you.

Euridge Manor Wedding

The Proposal

My partner surprised me with a proposal before we went out for dinner. It was such a beautiful surprise and just a private moment between us two.

We then got to celebrate and announce the amazing news the next day to my friends and family at my birthday dinner.

The Vision

Our main vision was to create a romantic, fairytale outdoor wedding. The venue was so dreamy, with an array of beautiful roses across the garden. We just wanted to add to that dreamy feel of romance and elegance. Ensuring all our guests were transported to a world of love and enchantment.

I chose a soft colour palette of shades of pink that would complement the romantic vision, adding a pop of red to create a touch of drama and elegance.

The Venue

Euridge Manor in the Cotswolds.

Your Outfits

My first wedding dress for the ceremony was made by Pronovias it was so romantic and I felt like a princess. The style completely fit the venue and outdoor fairytale vision. It had a corset which sinched me in at the waist and then a full skirt, plus flower detail cascading down the corset and skirt.

I had my hair up in a sleek bun to allow the dress to be the main focus. I added Gucci diamond earrings as my accessory, which added the touch of glamour and elegance.

My second dress was a Blush and Ivory fitted gown for the reception. I kept the second dress a secret, which made our bride and groom entrance extra special. The dress had a sleek, sexy feel and was perfect for dancing the night away.

I wore my hair down for a more relaxed feel for the evening.

The Ceremony & Music

The Ceremony was a dream. Luckily the sun shined on the day, and we were able to have our outdoor wedding we hoped for. The ceremony was in the little boat house in front of the water, with a gallery of our friends and family watching from the balcony.

After the I do’s, we waved goodbye with the accompaniment of our amazing saxophonist Andre Brown, playing Everlasting Love. He played throughout the cocktail hour, a truly brilliant musician, who had everyone dancing from start to finish, including myself!

Your Photographer & Filmmaker

Jessy Papasavva was our amazing photographer. I was in the process of looking for a photographer and couldn’t find anyone that I really resonated with, when a friend of mine posted their wedding pictures on Instagram.

I immediately loved the look and style of the photos and reached out to find out who the talented photographer behind the photos was. They introduced me to Jessy and it’s the best decision we made for our wedding. I was really nervous on the day and Jessy made me feel confident and at ease. The wedding album is absolutely beautiful, and we will treasure the photos for a lifetime.

Ali was our videographer. His work was spectacular, and the wedding video brings me to tears every time I watch.

The Styling & Decor

I worked closely with my brilliant florist, Fi Passey. Fi completely got my vision immediately. She developed the perfect colour palette and floral displays. I wanted flowers to be the big wow factor of the wedding. On the day I was so impressed of how above and beyond Fi went. They really were a WOW.

Holly Lopez was our wedding stylist and worked closely with Fi. The signs, candles, seat names were all perfect and looked so luxurious. Everyone commented on how exceptional the décor was.

Platinum Décor and Events put together the dance floor, staging and lighting. We loved having our names and wedding date on the dance floor, and the the top table being on the stage added to the grandeur.

The Honeymoon

We planned a mini-moon with our baby in tow, to a luxury hotel in Crete. It was the perfect place to wind down after the wedding.

We had a beautiful family holiday and was truly spoilt. Next year we’re hoping for a couple’s only honeymoon to Bali.

Memorable Moments

I have two memorable moments.

The first was when we had just finished the I dos. I was saying my hellos to some of my friends when I heard Andre, our saxophonist playing one of my favourite songs. I ran over and me and my girls burst into dance. Was such a carefree moment, where I fully embraced that moment of pure joy and celebration. All the guests were cheering, and it really set the mood for the rest of the wedding.

The second moment was after the reception entrance. The energy in the room was buzzing, our MC, Tandoh and DJ, Darkozy were on fire and even before our main dinner every guest was on their feet dancing and singing. It was fantastic and I’ll never forget that moment, seeing everyone we love, with beaming smiles and so happy.

Advice For Other Couples

My advice to other couples is to let go and enjoy your day. There’s no going back to change anything, so don’t sweat the small stuff and just relax and embrace every moment.

Most importantly, Hire a wedding coordinator!

I was able to plan and hire all of my suppliers and hand over my wedding plans to the coordinator 6 weeks before. Zeleka was amazing, she has been in the wedding industry for many years, so I trusted her with my vision and bringing it alive.

There were hiccups along the way but none that I knew of at the time, which is the perfect sign of a great coordination team!
