Weddings are real. Weddings are real days, in your real lives, where you’re the same people as you are today. Weddings are everyday life, amplified a million times over: excitement, laughter, love and the people you invite to be around you, bring that amplifying effect. If I were to follow that sentence with something about a dress, and floral styling, it wouldn’t quite fit… and yet that’s how we’re generally shown weddings in the media. (Wedding blogs included – we publish weddings with beautiful styling and details, and they’re a joy to share.) But gorgeous styling isn’t what will stand the test of time in your images. We have to turn our attention back to people for that.

Imagine getting married in the Lake District in August – pure bliss! I’ve loved seeing all the lovely images of today’s beautiful bride and gorgeous groom as they said their vows in the heart of the Lakes. The setting’s out of this world. The photos by award winning Lake District wedding photographer Mark Battista capture the story of the day perfectly. An absolute dream of a wedding  with stunning florals and a masterpiece of a cake – and as always, we’ll share more favourite images on instagram – follow @englishweddingblog and @markbattistaphotography

Today’s beautiful wedding is from the stunning Isle of Wight coast. Kythe and James both look amazing – Kythe’s dress is just gorgeous. I’m in love with the caterpillar cake family (the babies!!!) and the incredible views captured by Isle of Wight wedding photographer SJ Jones Photography at Warren Farm. Keep scrolling for reviews and recommendations from the happy couple, and to read all about their wonderful wedding!

I’m utterly smitten with this beautiful Cornish wedding, and with all of the gorgeous personal touches Lauren & Ollie incorporated into their day. The venue is Trevenna Barns, and the beautiful images are by super talented Hannah Timm Photography, who’s based in Cornwall and captures weddings across the South West. The flowers are insane – seeing them was one of Lauren’s favourite parts of the day! – they’re by The Garden Gate Flower Company. As always, you’ll find more from this amazing wedding on our instagram @englishweddingblog.

I’m loving all the gentle autumn tones in this gorgeous Yorkshire wedding from The Tithe Barn at Bolton Abbey. Lovely newlyweds Sarah and Tom were married in October and chose North Yorkshire wedding photographer Joss Denham to capture their day. The colours are glorious, the styling is spot on – and the love and laughter bursts from the photos so beautifully!
