Vintage afternoon tea delight for Lucy and Dan

Thrumpton looked utterly delightful today for Lucy and Dan's tea party wedding with flower filled birdcages, Victorian jugs, lace cloths and pretty floral mats, a vintage sweet trolley, bunting galore, and a delicious 3 course afternoon tea prepared by Maverick.

Kait and Stu

Beautiful, beautiful boho wedding at Thrumpton... 'Wild and completely unstructured' were Kait's words to me, last year when I first met with her. We sat at meetings together, and put cream enamel jugs inside birdcages, discussed wild flowers and herbs falling out of bottles and pots. And today it all came together with....an overarm bouquet of wild, delicate flowers to compliment a beautifully boho dress, bunches of meadow flowers, bound in lace, carried by attendants, clad in smoky lilac, posy style buttonholes with lavender and thistles. .. French grey birdcages bursting with flowers on every level. On the lawns, wild flowers filled beer bottles, brought from the hen weekend in Brighton, they sprung out of ancient medicine bottles and jam jars dressed in lace, on the top table, and were strewn across tables in a truly haphazard style. It worked beautifully...

Lauren and Gareth

Two completely different settings for today's weddings. Peaceful, sleepy Thrumpton which I love so much, hosted the wedding of Lauren and Gareth, and Rachel and Sam celebrated in the contemporary function room of my favourite local restaurant, The Riverbank. Love to see Thrumpton in colour, it really brings a marquee to life. Photos of the The Riverbank to follow soon, and see you next weekend Thrumpton, and the weekend after as well, hopefully without the rain and hail..!.. Still so beautiful though....

Rebecca and Andrew, Thrumpton Hall

Lace, ostrich feathers and martini vases gave Thrumpton a 1920’s retro look for Rebecca and Andrew’s wedding. Posies of ivory lisianthus provided the perfect accessory for the dresses, simple but chic.
