Dean and Nicola's Wedding in Styal, Cheshire

Our Real Wedding

We met 12 years ago when my knight in shining army saved me from a downward spiral after an abusive relationship. By no means has it been a smooth sailing and definitely not a fairy-tale, but our very own Fifty Shades story, which I prefer!

We decided to blend our unique family in the ultimate commitment after lock down and knew when we walked into Styal Lodge, it was the ONE. We wanted a place that was rustic and intimate - the perfect place to share with the people who mattered to us most.

We decided on Ivory and sage as our colour theme, Sunflowers & pampas for decorations. And an amazing semi naked cake, with 3 layers, all different flavours and 2 styles of cupcakes.

Our caterer.. wow, blew us away with the quality of every dish, every guest commented on the food and the delicious flavours.

We walked down the aisle to a violinist and finished the night with a sax player.

Our registrar was amazing, so witty and light hearted. The photographer blew us away with her attitude and dedication. Our magician entertained all the guests in an unique way. The Cigar bar added a luxury. The ice cream cart and sweet cart kept it sweet. And the 360 Booth kept it fun!!
