\"Industrial<\/p>\n

This wedding is right up my street, urban industrial meets whimsical autumn. Ohhh yes.<\/p>\n

WWW readers Rob and Kate chose to get married on the 10th October 2015 after finding out they were expecting their first child and bringing forward their wedding date. That left them with three months to plan their day which turned out so very perfectly.<\/p>\n

The celebration was really individual, set at 99 Mary St<\/a>, an industrial venue in Sheffield, they really went to town on the d\u00e9cor. They used seasonal blooms and vegetables nestled alongside candles which made for a spectacular display.<\/p>\n

I am head over heels for Kate’s swishy tulle gown, Rob’s tweed and bow tie combo and their cute pup. Perfection.<\/p>\n

Thanks so much to Ellie Grace Photography<\/a> for sharing these simply gorgeous images with us.<\/p>\n

THE PROPOSAL | Rob: There is a stunning stone bridge which used to be part of the old railway lines in Ashover, Derbyshire. This bridge is now part of a beautiful woodland walk that comes out just near the Poet\u2019s Corner Inn. A spot which also houses many fond memories of our relationship, to me the perfect spot. It didn\u2019t quite work out like that\u2026 It was a lovely summers day, when we approached the bridge the sun was glittering through the trees and the scene was (seemingly) set. I put down our bags and like in preparation. Kate however walked straight across the bridge, the dog jumped into the stream, a gang of cyclists drove past\u2026 sod\u2019s law personified! We got to the Poet\u2019s Corner, our local (despite being a good 45 minute drive away) with me wondering now how to propose. Kate sat outside while I went to get some drinks, still pondering. It was the middle of the day on a Thursday so was pretty quite at the pub. Inside B.B. King & Eric Clapton\u2019s \u2018Marry You\u2019 was playing (I kid you not!) taking this as a sign I marched outside, with no one around I climbed onto the bench and got down on one knee. I think it\u2019s fair to say Kate was surprised \u2013 as was I!<\/p>\n

THE VISION | Initially we had planned for an outside yurt, festival theme. With outside bars, chillout lounges and fire pits aplenty botanical, natural and relaxed. However news in July scuppered this slightly when we found out we were expecting our first child! We decided to bring forward our wedding date to October and to hopefully bring similar vibes inside. Something that we felt we did, and which bettered anything we could have wished for.<\/p>\n

THE PLANNING PROCESS | As we brought our wedding day forward, we therefore planned and executed everything within a 3 month period! (Which sounds even crazier reading back!) We looked at a few venues, but as soon as we saw 99 Mary St. we new it was a perfect match for us.<\/p>\n

THE VENUE | 99 Mary St. Sheffield.<\/p>\n

THE DRESS & ACCESSORIES | Agape Bridal Boutique, Altrincham.<\/p>\n

FINDING THE DRESS | Kate: Being pregnant I thought that bridal shops would look at me as a nightmare! I\u2019m picky as it is and I didn\u2019t want to look over pregnant. Also when I started looking for dresses, I couldn\u2019t judge how much I would be showing 3 months down the line. I chose to visit Agape initially as I loved the range of designers they stocked and as soon as I walked in the door I felt welcomed. Sara who works there was also pregnant and they made me feel so at ease. Every time I had to go back for sizing it felt the same. It made the 3 hour round trip worthwhile!<\/p>\n

GROOM\u2019S ATTIRE | ASOS<\/p>\n

THE READINGS & MUSIC | Lola Lamour<\/p>\n

BEAUTIFUL BRIDESMAIDS | Kate\u2019s sisters Jess and Megan and Rob\u2019s sister Emma. Wearing dresses from ASOS which, with Tracey Campbell\u2019s floral crowns we felt matched with our Autumnal themes.<\/p>\n

THE FLOWERS | Tracey Campbell, Sheffield<\/p>\n

THE CAKE | Harrods Caterers, Sheffield<\/p>\n

YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER | Ellie Grace Photography, Sheffield<\/p>\n

THE DETAILS & D\u00c9COR | We felt that 99 Mary St\u2019s bare brick walls was perfect and we didn\u2019t want to change too much. We felt it symbolised Industrial Sheffield. We used our own German beer festival tables and benches and decorated the room with natural Autumn flowers and candles.<\/p>\n

THE HONEYMOON | Did we mention we\u2019re having a baby?<\/p>\n

MEMORABLE MOMENTS | Rob: The whole day was perfect. There wasn\u2019t anything we felt we missed out and nothing at all went wrong.<\/p>\n

ADVICE FOR OTHER COUPLES | Planning a wedding within 3 months is not perhaps for everyone, but for us it really worked. It meant we were focused on what we really wanted and created the perfect wedding for us, without spending money on unnecessary things.<\/p>\n
