A wedding at home and a pony called Peanuts
The best English weddings are full of charm which comes right from your heart: Dan and Holly’s day is a special one. Holly’s wedding report describes how she woke up at 5am on the wedding day morning bursting with excitement — “the kind you get on Christmas day when you are a child!”
So how could I resist sharing this lovely wedding full of DIY touches and great ideas with you. It’s everything you’d imagine for a countryside wedding and bundles more: there’s bunting by the mile, and as an extra treat we have a vintage tractor and of course the adorable Peanuts the pony!
Brick House Farm creative wedding reception
So today I have a treat for you — part two of Tanya and Andy’s lovely relaxed, family orientated wedding. There’s something so special about doing things your own way: from the wedding ceremony where all the children had tambourines, to Tanya’s beautiful and unconventional wedding dress.
I would shout from the rooftops about making your wedding personal to you, about sidestepping tradition and making a wedding a celebration of who you really are. Today, I don’t need to: Tanya and Andy are showing us exactly what that means and how special and perfect it can be.
A beautiful real wedding at Brick House Farm
Today’s wedding blog is for all you brides and grooms planning a relaxed, informal and fun day: a wedding without stuffy rules, constraints and conventions. Tanya and Andy had a fabulous creative wedding at Brick House Farm in Kent, and reportage wedding photographer Mark Carey was first to tell me about their day.
I instantly loved the few images he shared with me. I knew I had to email Tanya right away and she was kind enough to share her amazing wedding story for the blog. It’s a wonderful tale — here is a bride with imagination and a wonderful confidence to create a really personal wedding day.
A beautiful countryside wedding: part two
Yesterday I blogged the first part of Antonia and Rob’s wedding day. If you missed it you can click the link to see the preparations and gorgeous photographs of the bride and groom from the wedding.
Now it’s time to share some more of a very special day with you. Antonia and Rob created their intimate countryside wedding around their loved ones: family and friends mean more than anything in the world, and you can really feel the love when you look at their wedding pictures.

Elegant and sophisticated wedding reception — part two
I can almost hear music as I scroll through Claudia and John’s wedding photographs — a soft, tinkling piano piece to accompany the elegant wedding ceremony (did you see their Sidbury wedding blog yesterday?) and then something a touch livelier for the wedding reception I’m about to show you. It sings of sophistication and English charm with a really loved up atmosphere.
Claudia and John live in Australia, and chose to get married in the UK because Claudia is British and her family live over here. They had a wedding weekend, with a classic Devon cream tea on the day before the wedding itself. This was followed by a traditional English barbeque in the evening so the English and Aussie guests could meet and mingle.
More wedding day fun — in the park!
A real wedding for you today girls and guys, and one which follows from the playful week of weddings we had last week!
This is Richard and Laura’s wedding day in Wales — the venue is Plas Hafod, the atmosphere is chilled out countryside and I love the little details of the day.
Marie Lloyd Photography sent the photographs in to be featured on English Wedding. Husband and wife wedding photographers from Wales, Marie and Jason work together shooting weddings across the country.
A French English Welsh wedding celebration
This wedding appeals to my love of nature and the countryside — there’s such a lovely relaxed feel to all the images, and when I first saw the wedding slideshow by photographer Fiona Campbell the farm animals were a wonderful surprise!
Stephane and Bianca were married in the Brecon Beacons, at Gliffaes Country House Hotel. Fiona told me, “It had an absolutely sublime atmosphere and the staff were so helpful and friendly”.
A superb countryside wedding
A super cool wedding party
This is a wedding I love for its character. Emma and Andy’s wedding day looks like so much fun! They’ve used their imaginations to create a day with a cool British theme — lots of red and blue — with a countryside twist: welly wanging being a definite highlight!
Andy looks cool in his ray bans

Pretty in Pink!
Another wedding I’ve been keeping to myself for a few weeks… sorry folks! But it’s worth waiting for, trust me. Mark and Victoria were married in July and their fabulous photographer was Mark Skeet, who is based in Yorkshire.
A favourite photo of mine — Victoria looks beautiful and relaxed before the wedding
Victoria’s soft white wedding gown is simple and elegant, with a strapless bodice, straight, sweeping skirt and flower embellishments. Her bouquet is of pink and ivory roses, and her wedding shoes are from Faith.
The wedding dress is beautiful, a slender shape with flower detailing
English summer wedding
The perfect English summer wedding — a beautiful sunny day and gorgeous, colourful wedding photos to treasure!
This latest wedding was submitted by Lisa Dawn Photography and is such a visual treat! Bride Anna and groom James were married in August, at St Mary’s Church in Weston-Super-Mare. Their reception was at Huntstile Organic Farm.
Huntstile Organic Farm is perfect for relaxed English country weddings.
Lisa Dawn is a wonderfully creative photographer with a great talent for spotting little details of your wedding day: the photograph above was taken on a visit to the farm before the wedding, which sums up the cheerful and relaxed atmosphere of this unusual wedding venue.
