A gorgeous wedding for a lovely family, with creative details and SO much love. Tristan and Nicola’s venue, Canonteign Falls, is a beautiful venue with nature all around – sadly, no longer hosting full weddings but absolutely worth a visit! Images are by lovely Ewelina at OTEM Photography. As ever, I’ll share a handful of favourite images on instagram @englishweddingblog – don’t miss them, they’re stunning!

Our wedding photography
We hired Ewelina aka OTEM Photography, who’s based in Plymouth. Beautiful photos, immaculate vibes, supportive and creative, exactly what we wanted when we chose her to capture our special day. Superb.
Our wedding venue
Canonteign Falls. A beautiful Dartmoor treasure, hidden away in the Teign Valley of Devon. Prehistoric caverns and wet woodland, along with a rustic barn and beautiful lakeside gazebo hosted our twilight wedding and vows.

Our wedding outfits

Tristan: I chose a forest green wool 3 piece suit from Next with a custom pink liberty print tie from Van Buck and pocket square made by my Mother in law.

Nicola chose a stunning, bohemian 2 piece skirt and blouse by Catherine Deane from Browns of Totnes.

Nicola’s head piece was from Hats2go Millinery by Marie-Anne, her shoes from Harriet Wilde.

Our amazing suppliers
While we decorated ourselves and provides lighting etc, we were blown away by our artist who captured the day Devon Dumpling, our evening DJ Exeter Entertainment and our stunning Paella caterers Buen Apetito

More from Nicola & Tristan’s Devon wedding


If you’re looking for a little joy in the world today, we have it for you. A quiet elopement in Devon, set in a 20th century mansion which offers intimate weddings for 2 as well as celebrations for over a hundred guests. Lucy and Lewis chose to elope, as they have two young children and in Lucy’s words, “we wanted to be in the moment and enjoy it together.” The beautiful images prove they did just that. They celebrated three weeks later with friends and family with a wedding in Plymouth – but it’s their elopement story we’re sharing on English Wedding today.

The images are timeless as the couple’s elegant attire; the backdrop is exquisite and the day looks magical. Lucy told English Wedding, “Ewelina (OTEM Photography) fitted in with this vibe perfectly and was irreplaceable.”
“Ewelina at OTEM photography is the most incredible, amazing, talented photographer you could ask for. She cares so much about your vision and what you want from your photos. She has gone above and beyond more than I ever could have asked for. Her work is INCREDIBLE. It’s better than I could have dreamed of. She’s captured my vision perfectly and she was such a huge part of our wedding.”
