I love adventurous people, and couples who trust in their suppliers to create something wonderful. Richard and Kyra are both – and their Northamptonshire wedding is all the more beautiful for it. The super lovely couple chose Dodmoor House wedding photographers Sky Photography to capture their day – and it’s amazing. I’ve adored scrolling through every image, and I’ve saved some of my faves to share on instagram later too!

“Our wedding was just more incredible than we ever could’ve dreamt. We didn’t want a fancy wedding, but rather one that was cosy and suited our relaxed and adventurous personalities, and we definitely had that. Our suppliers were brilliant, and our advice to any couple is to pick great suppliers with great reviews, give a rough guide (in terms of colours etc), and then just try to let go & trust them – they will do an amazing job!”

Wedding photographer review

We honestly cannot say thank you to Simon (& Karla) enough for our wedding photos. As two non-photogenic sporty people, often found in running clothes, we were so worried about our photos being forced. Simon just put us at ease, and all the photos we have are just genuine happy moments, naturally captured. We love them, and we’ve had so many compliments!

Your best wedding moment or memory

We went off alone after we were just married to take some photos and we just really appreciated a few moments together, to enjoy the fact that we we were finally actually married!

 

Tell us anything you did differently – we love hearing about NEW traditions (or none at all!)

My twin sister gave a speech, which we loved, as well as my Dad! We bought a game of twister for the bar, and it was the best decision ever that we’d reccomend to other couples!

Venue name + review

Dodmoor House – just an incredible venue. They honestly said yes to every single idea we had, and made us feel like the only couple to ever be married at Dodmoor! It was personal and unique, and the staff were just amazing!

Tell us a little about your outfits – both of you!

Kyra – I wanted a dress that was feminine, but not a huge dress either. So I had an A-line dress, with flowers in lace. I felt a million miles away from my usual running things!
Richard – I wore a blue suit with a dusty blue tie & a white shirt.

Dress or suit shop name + review

Dress – Oliver’s bridal in Hoddeson – again, the most amazing shop that helped the most non-girlie girl ever find the perfect dress!

Suit from Moss Boss.

Florist name + review

Orange Blossom did our flowers – we asked them for the number and gave a colour, and asked them to work their magic, as we had no idea & trusted them entirely – they definitely did work their magic, we absolutely loved the colour and arrangement of the flowers!

Cake maker name + review

Jamie Bakes Cakes – the very best chocolate cupcakes we’ve ever eaten! Jamie made it all so easy, and the cake looked so good with the colour scheme.

Any crafty projects or homemade styling touches?

We decorated a lot of our wedding using things from Etsy, as we had a travel theme. We also used Little Details who decorated the venue to make it look one hundred times more than we even could’ve imagined, and it felt really personalised.

Wedding readings?

Richard’s Mum wrote her own reading for the wedding, on the ten tips of marriage – we have it in our kitchen now, it’s full of wisdom & we loved it.

Hair + makeup name + review

Charlotte Chartell did my makeup & Kate Lodge did my hair – again I gave them full control, knowing they would know so much more than me. Not only did they make us look and feel amazing, but they were also like extra bridesmaids – by the end of the morning I wished I could’ve invited them both to the wedding!
