Today’s absolute joy of a wedding comes from beautiful Grasmere, in the heart of the Lake District. Mark and Dan look amazing in matching suits, the floral styling is out of this world and the photography captures the atmosphere of their day perfectly.

I am head over heels in love with so many of Mark and Dan’s images I could have shared so many more on the blog… do head over to @englishweddingblog on instagram to see more of my favourites! Congratulations to this gorgeous pair – and huge thank yous for sharing such wonderful supplier reviews for the amazing team who brought the day to life. An absolute beauty!
This is a niche topic – but still popular and I hope you find it really useful! As well as writing English Wedding, I’m a calligrapher who specialises in weddings, so this is my little area of expertise. Calligraphy looks expensive – it’s a fabulous way of elevating wedding tables and giving a luxury vibe – and you really don’t have to spend a fortune to do it. Here’s how to be spend savvy and get the most from working with a wedding calligrapher.
I’ve loved reading this guest article about planning your perfect city wedding – we often feature country houses on our website, but we’ve featured some amazing city weddings on our blog and they really do deserve more attention! Jan’s written this lovely article for us, and makes the very valid point that wedding planning shouldn’t just be seen as a checklist of tasks. It’s when dreams begin to take shape. This is when your ideas start to leap off the page and become reality.

An epic sunset for a stunning couple on their Northamptonshire wedding day. James and Harriet incorporated some really thoughtful and heartwarming touches into their day, and it’s wonderful to be sharing these with you. The groom and bride have shared warm reviews and recommendations for their Dodford Manor suppliers with us, and it’s been a treat scrolling through all of their images as I write this blog! Top tip: keep reading all the way to the end… the last few shots are simply out of this world!
As we head into the Easter weekend, I wanted to leave you with this wonderful wedding from Launcells Barton in Cornwall. The atmosphere is sunny, fresh and coastal chic, and the images by Melanie Barnfield Photography are out of this world. Sophie and Gareth are stunning – Sophie’s dress with its mermaid-like sparkle is perfect for a seaside celebration.
Have the most wonderful weekend everyone – I’ll be taking a break to spend time with family (and eat chocolate!) so we’ll see you on Tuesday!
