Jez and Holly's Wedding in Nantwich, Cheshire

We mixed a relatively rustic and alternative theme with a lot of fun in a beautiful setting with a historic house, modern reception buildings and wonderful grounds. Our food with SJE events was also all vegan and gluten free which was phenomenal- so many people asking if it was really vegan and gluten free. Paulina and Vlad from Urban Photo Lab were fabulous, they took so many photos in the background we barely knew they were there for a lot of the evening and in the day we were taken for many photos to compile our five hundred and something photo album!

On top of this we had a casino table for those wanting to take themselves off the dancefloor and Party Pods photo mirror which was probably one of my favourite hires of the day. So much fun and the photos go in to a guestbook so that is a job taken off the bridal party. During the daytime reception Giggles and Games provided the game entertainment such as connect 4, tug-o-war and limbo and while we didn't get to play, we saw everyone enjoying these as we were having our family photos done.

We had some sustainable suppliers including our invitations which were seed paper and Laura Likes changed the colour theme to suit our wedding, our place cards were also seed paper and we wrote those out ourselves. The seating plan was hand made and we had a tarot theme for the table names and numbers. The wedding favours were hand made by a friend of Luella's Treasures- they were resin coasters with flowers and tiny lemon slices in to fit the theme of the wedding.

They say that your wedding day is the best day of your life but I had no idea that it would actually be the most fun. So many people laughing, smiles and dancing. Not to mention our lucky break in the weather, beautiful sunshine! Zoe at Dorfold said that I was the most chilled bride and I think she definitely deserves some recognition for that by being such a fab organiser! I have loved wedding planning, I love organising events and this was something new and huge! It can be a wonderful experience if your priority is to have a good time and don't get bogged down in what other people might want, it's a day for the both of you and people want to be there then they will be!
