A Cheshire wedding blog — Karen and Simon at Arley Hall

Posted on March 1, 2013 by Claire Gould

Morn­ing every­one, and Happy Fri­day! I’ve been sav­ing today’s gor­geous Cheshire wed­ding blog for this morn­ing — it seems to fit with that whole Fri­day feel­ing thing. There’s sun­shine and romance, and a stun­ning bride and groom — in fact wed­ding blog sub­scribers will recog­nise Karen and Simon from their wed­ding high­lights film which I was so proud to fea­ture back in Jan­u­ary (see an autumn wed­ding in Cheshire).

I love this quote from the happy couple:

“Try to leave your­selves as much time as pos­si­ble between all the day’s activ­i­ties to spend with fam­ily and friends, after the day those will be the moments you cher­ish the most.”

An autumn wedding in Cheshire — Arley Hall

Posted on January 17, 2013 by Claire Gould

Any­one fancy a touch of sun­shine this morn­ing? Me too… so in glo­ri­ous tech­ni­colour I bring you this beau­ti­ful wed­ding film from Marry Me Films today. Karen and Simon were mar­ried at Cheshire’s Arley Hall in the autumn… cue gor­geous colours and one of those won­der­fully crisp autum­nal days — per­fect for guests to play boules and cro­quet on the lawn.

Karen wore a beau­ti­ful Sassi Hol­ford cap-sleeved wed­ding dress, and is such an incred­i­bly beau­ti­ful bride — both she and Simon look fab­u­lous! One of the loveli­est touches from this Cheshire wed­ding is the Vicar, who mar­ried Karen’s par­ents years before. They were his first wed­ding cer­e­mony, and he came back espe­cially to marry Karen and Simon — which is such a won­der­ful story.

A contemporary but classic Peckforton Castle wedding

Posted on January 8, 2013 by Claire Gould

Hi there! Another real wed­ding for you to enjoy this morn­ing — and I’m going to jump straight in as Kelly and Ian’s big day needs no intro­duc­tion. The images of their day are beau­ti­ful, and Kelly’s shared a fan­tas­tic wed­ding report which you’ll see towards the end of the blog post (it’s about three-quarters of the way down the page).

It warms my heart to read about Kelly’s favourite wed­ding day moments. After talk­ing about the incred­i­ble effort her dad made to pre­pare an amaz­ing speech, she says,

“I loved watch­ing all of our friends and fam­ily enjoy­ing them­selves. You really can’t put a price on cre­at­ing those mem­o­ries.”  Read more…

A vintage country garden home made English wedding in Cheshire

Posted on August 8, 2012 by Claire Gould

Frogg Manor wedding Cheshire blog (39)As you might guess from the title, today’s Eng­lish Wed­ding Blog is packed to the rafters with ideas, from a home made wed­ding dress (which is jaw-droppingly gor­geous) via a quirky and eccen­tric coun­try manor venue to a “guest being locked in his own car boot”.

I really don’t know where to begin! This is fantastic…

The beau­ti­ful images are by Cheshire wed­ding pho­tog­ra­pher Adam Riley. The wed­ding venue is Frogg Manor (about 15 min­utes from Chester), described as “Unashamedly bour­geois, eccen­tric, orig­i­nal & quin­tes­sen­tially Eng­lish”. And I have a won­der­ful wed­ding report from the bride — Angela looks out of this world — the per­fect Eng­lish bride. (Ben too is gor­geous — they’re a match made in heaven!)

Enjoy xxx

My heart skipped a lit­tle when wed­ding pho­tog­ra­pher Scott Foley got in touch with this one: bride Pamela is a fan of Eng­lish Wed­ding Blog so I’m really proud to post a story and a few pic­tures of their lovely wed­ding at Dukes 92. I love a wed­ding which is all about friends and fam­ily, and while Pamela and Andy’s wed­ding is beau­ti­ful for its ele­gance and sim­plic­ity as far as the decor goes, the love and fun shared with every­one on the day is what shines through.

Pamela is such a nat­u­rally beau­ti­ful girl, and absolutely radi­ant when you see the pic­tures of her with Andy, with their lit­tle boy and with all the chil­dren on the wed­ding day. So I’m absolutely delighted to share this pretty young mum’s wed­ding on the blog today.  Read more…

Romance, tears, kilts and sunsets

Posted on November 7, 2011 by Claire Gould

Neil Wed­ding Video– Heaton House Farm Cheshire from silk wed­ding videos on Vimeo.

This gor­geous wed­ding film by Silk Wed­ding Videos needs very lit­tle intro­duc­tion. A beau­ti­ful bride in a ruf­fled wed­ding dress; her gor­geous (and tear­ful) groom in kilt and sporren; an idyl­lic Cheshire loca­tion and about as loved up as a wed­ding video can be.

Wed­ding video highlights:

  • the adorable brides­maid watch­ing prepa­ra­tions in the morning
  • tears from the groom and his heart­warm­ing vows
  • a lovely Scot­tish accent and bag­pipers to go with it!
  • dogs in col­lars made of roses. Eat your heart out Tamara!

Enjoy x

Real wedding film from Thornton Manor

Posted on October 7, 2011 by Claire Gould

Vic­to­ria and David’s wed­ding is gor­geous — when Sara and Tony from Marry Me Films got in touch I instantly fell in love with this film from their Thorn­ton Manor wed­ding. Vic­to­ria is a real Eng­lish beauty, and her wed­ding dress cov­ered in lace and sparkles is really, really lovely.

So today’s blog post is a quickie for me to write! Enjoy the wed­ding film — Paul Weller pro­vides the roman­tic sound­track by the way — and watch out for that first view of the mag­nif­i­cent ceil­ing* inside Thorn­ton Manor. You’ll also be impressed, I think, by Vic­to­ria and David’s six tier wed­ding cake. Yes — six tiers! Wow…
