A guest blog by Lily for For Better For Worse


Traditionally weddings have come with a well-known set of rules – don’t see the bride in her dress before the big day, no one else wears white… you get the gist.  And that’s totally fine! Having rules at your wedding isn’t a new concept, but have you heard of the couples taking it one step further?

Here are a few eccentric rules grooms and brides have implemented to make sure their day stays running smoothly.

“Unplugged” weddings are becoming more popular as many start resenting seeing everything through a screen. But why?

Today’s real wedding comes from Cundall in Yorkshire – it’s a beautiful day with dreamy florals in mixed pastels, and all the rain that makes those flowers grow! Lucy and Tom’s laughter proves a rainy wedding is just as stunning as any. They’re a gorgeous pair and scrolling through photographer Joss Denham’s amazing wedding photos is bringing me all the joy!

Lodge Farm at Cundall is a picturesque barn wedding venue, and Yorkshire wedding photographer Joss Denham captures it beautifully.

The space is welcoming and warm, and perfect for Lucy & Tom’s barn wedding vibes.

If there’s ONE thing English Wedding stands for, it’s injecting YOUR personalities into your wedding. A huge part of that is to wear wedding attire you’ll love and feel like a hundred million dollars in – oh, while also being comfy and rocking the dance floor. Today’s blog is for those of you who are looking for something chic and feminine… but with a very modern, wonderfully sparkly twist.
