East London Wedding<\/h2>\n

Urban, International, Colourful and Relaxed<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ines and Nate<\/p>\n

\n

We are in super cool East London today for Ines and Nate’s city affair held on the 3rd August 2019. They held their ceremony in the Council Chamber at Islington Town Hall<\/a> before hopping on a double decker bus to celebrate their union at Clapton Country Club<\/a>. Their day oozes style and relaxed vibes, not to mention a lot of colour. There were multicoloured flowers, a bright berry laden semi naked cake and amazing outfits all round. I just love that Ines and Nate invited their international guests to wear their traditional dress, they all looked so<\/em> brilliant.<\/p>\n

Talking of outfits didn’t Ines look gorgeous in her bridal separates from Catherine Deane<\/a>? Not to mention Nate’s really incredible linen hand embroidered guayabera. They looked both looked so wonderful and super loved up to boot.<\/p>\n

Huge thanks goes to the fantastic Marianne Chua Photography<\/a> for sharing her totally awesome images with us. What a fun day!<\/p>\n

The Proposal<\/h3>\n

No formal proposal \u2026 a log term decision that we finally found time and money to go through with.<\/p>\n

The Vision<\/h3>\n

Having a party with all our families and friends, due to both of our cultural heritages the plan was to celebrate in Washington, Malaysia and Germany but London was our main focus. We both went to Uni here and have lived here for over a decade so most of our friends were already here and made logistics easy.<\/p>\n

The Planning Process<\/h3>\n

We started by setting a budget and discussing the guest list first. We took one decision at a time (dictated by weather we could afford it or not). We started by booking the venue approximately 10 months in advance. It took us nearly 2 months to find a nice and affordable venue in London that met our standards and vision. From there we started thinking about catering (provided by the venue) and entertainment.<\/p>\n

The Venue<\/h3>\n

The Ceremony was held in Council Chamber of Islington Town Hall.<\/p>\n

The Reception: Clapton Country Club is a unique East London venue in which we celebrated your marriage in authentic urban, yet glamorous, surroundings.<\/p>\n

The kitchen creates great food with a strong ethos on organic, biodynamic and sustainability. Their list of fine wines share the same values and have been sourced at length, to make sure they do justice to the food and environment.<\/p>\n

Clapton Country Club was originally built as a wedding venue for the owners, so romance oozes from every lick of paint!<\/p>\n
