\"Pheasant<\/p>\n

As we rapidly approach Autumn<\/a> I am gearing up for burnt orange leaves, golden light and all the festivities the season brings. It’s always a magical time of year and so when I saw Sarah and Craig’s perfectly natural wedding day held on the 7th October 2017, I was smitten. The chose to host their wedding celebrations at The Pheasant<\/a>\u00a0Harome in beautiful Yorkshire<\/a>. Yorkshire is a place close to the couple’s heart and they just love spending time in the Yorkshire dales, so it was a natural choice. The venue also offered much guidance and organisation to allow for a relaxed wedding planning process, plus I have to say the roast beef and Yorkshire pudding main sounded delicious.<\/p>\n

I really love how intimate and classic their day feels, timeless in style, totally joyous and really romantic. Flowers were one of the important elements to their day and they really were stunning. The entrance to the church was adorned with swathes of greenery, hydrangeas and candles, which must have been the perfect first impression and entrance to their ceremony. Sarah’s oversized bouquet really was a show-stopper and included large hydrangeas, roses and eucalyptus to name a few. Keeping the d\u00e9cor and details simple, they focused on a warm atmosphere with tables laden with candles and blooms. Their outfits meanwhile were totally stylish, what with Craig choosing a timeless black suit and grey tie, the bridesmaids were in pretty pale pink frocks and Sarah donned an intricate lace Limor Rosen gown with cathedral length veil. Oh my!<\/p>\n

We are so thrilled to be sharing these dreamy fine art photographs by Arabella Smith<\/a> today, they really are gorgeous. Thank you to Arabella for sharing them with us.<\/p>\n

Very low-key, the venue were very professional and organised so we did not have too much to plan. All of the people we hired from the photographer to the florist were experts and took all of the hassle out of it for us. We cannot rate them highly enough.<\/p>\n

Luella\u2019s Bridal, Wimbledon Village, SW London. I had visited a couple of wedding shops but fell in love with the Limor Rosen collection at Luella\u2019s. They had a few that I liked but I fell in love with the simple, lace Holly dress as it was a classic shape with beautiful detail.<\/p>\n

THE FLOWERS<\/h3>\n

Flowers by FARM.<\/p>\n

Beautiful, creative arrangements from Sarah. She is fantastic! I love English country garden flowers and Sarah interpreted this beautifully. I wanted flowers to be a big part of my day and Sarah understood that perfectly and made it happen. We had a lot of big blooms incorporated into the bouquets with hydrangea as a key flower.<\/p>\n

MEMORABLE MOMENTS<\/h3>\n

The Reverend Susan Binks from St. Saviour\u2019s Church, Harome. We loved meeting with Susan in the run up to our wedding and she made the day perfect.<\/p>\n

Both of my parents and also Craig\u2019s mum have sadly passed away. It was very touching when we remembered them during the service and lit a candle for them. My Aunty Marilyn also gave a reading from one of my favourite books, Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, which meant a lot.<\/p>\n

Craig\u2019s dad hit the dancefloor and gave us some great Greek dancing that will stay in the memory. Arabella managed to catch it all in the photos.<\/p>\n

We loved Nick and Jason (Craig\u2019s brothers) as Best Men.<\/p>\n

Staying up later than we should the night before the wedding as we were having such a nice time with my sister and our friends at The Star Inn, Harome.<\/p>\n

Wedding favours were miniature Liverpool Gin bottles and tables named after famous Liverpool landmarks. Liverpool is Sarah\u2019s home city. Craig is from Yorkshire. We spend a lot of weekends in the Yorkshire Dales as it is beautiful and relaxing.<\/p>\n

I loved the Order of Service created by The Invite Guy. He incorporated a pale pink, flower design and we included a quote from Charlotte Bronte on the back. I will frame it as the design was just what I was looking for and fitted the wedding style.<\/p>\n

I ask you to pass through life at my side – to be my second self and best earthy companion.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Rochester in Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte.<\/p>\n

ADVICE FOR OTHER COUPLES<\/h3>\n
