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!

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! Claire's signature

If I ask you right now, what is a wedding? I’m guessing the occasion that springs to mind will be at least a little formal, decorative, perhaps with someone in a white dress or a gold or red lehenga, guests in sparkly or flowery summer attire and plenty of suits and ties. These are the things we can’t help ourselves expecting, based on everything the media and tradition tells us a wedding ‘should’ be.

Chloe & Matt’s wedding styling is out of this world. I have loved scrolling slowly through their images, seeing how utterly romantic and joyful the entire day was, from first look through to the epic dance floor moments! With impeccable attention to detail and exquisite styling, Danielle Veitch captured this dreamiest of days with thoughtful touches and love in every image.

This beautiful wedding at Mapperton Estate was a true family celebration with bespoke elements added throughout.
