Sandhole Oak Barn wedding venue
Sandhole Oak Barn is a very individual wedding venue near Congleton. Overlooking a private lake and with all the best bits of one of those surprise puddings (outside looks nice; inside is amazing!), it’s a really special place and should definitely be on your list if you’re looking at Cheshire wedding venues.

Green Earth Flowers at Sandhole Oak Barn
It’s flower time! Real wedding flowers by Green Earth Flowers of Cheshire
Another visual spectacle today, with a little more detail from Katie and James’s wedding at Sandhole Oak Barn which I featured a few days ago. Chris Hanley was the photographer — a regular favourite on English Wedding — and he sang the praises of Laura from Green Earth Flowers.
Green Earth Flowers are based in Poynton, Cheshire. They pride themselves on their bespoke approach to wedding flower design, and every wedding is designed around the unique requirements of the bride and groom.

Cheshire wedding via Italy
Katie and James had a beautiful wedding day in Cheshire with an Italian theme. From Katie’s Jimmy Choos to the luxury of Sandhole Oak Barn, and then glorious diamonds, lace and orchids, this wedding is a dream.
I fell in love with the photos instantly when they landed in my inbox last week, courtesy of the fabulous Cheshire wedding photographer Chris Hanley. There’s everything you’d ever want from your wedding photos in here: contemporary chic and fashionable elegance, tender emotional looks and dramatic skies.

Pick of the week!
So, the week starts tomorrow and I’ve been so busy giving myself a little facelift I haven’t even checked my emails yet. How on earth could I possibly have a pick of the week lined up then?
Chris Hanley got in touch a few days ago, that’s how. Here’s a quick preview pic to keep you going.
