Let's meet our couple, Sarah, a Chartered Accountant, and Jonathan, who's an IT Consultant, who have been married around the 24 March 2018 at an attractive boutique hotel within the charming Nottinghamshire village of Southwell.
"I first saw the gown at a wedding fair and loved how unique it had been. I wanted a mermaid-shaped dress having a low back. I also loved the diamante around the dress and the straps."
Ahh, what a truly beautiful gown, filled with sass and movement – we like it!
Gorgeous wedding party glamour came thanks to the hair stylist and make-up artist, and I love Sarah's perfect, vintage-style waves and dramatic eye make-up.
Sarah's bridesmaids looked fantastic in sage bridesmaid dresses, along with strappy, pewter-colored sandals. Sarah also gifted them personalized necklaces.
"With a neutral venue and bridesmaid's dresses we desired to use the flowers introducing color towards the day. We wanted several pastel colors, and since the venue and dresses were so simple, we felt like we're able to get away with several colors, too."
"We've known one another since going towards the same secondary school, but never spoke until New Year's Eve 2013 whenever we bumped directly into each other inside a local bar! We got engaged in November 2016 whilst on vacation in Dubai, and that we married annually and a half later." Here
Sarah and Jonathan opted for any simple, civil ceremony, and chose to not include any readings. They did, however, exchange rings together. Sarah decided on a thin, gold diamond band to complement her diamond engagement ring, and Jonathan decided on a plain gold band – both from, where Sarah's diamond engagement ring had are available.
On hand to capture many of these moments, naturally and spontaneously, Martin was a photographer, whose honest and heartfelt work we're sharing for that first time on Love My Dress today.
"We chose Martin because we loved his type of capturing action shots and that he was recommended by our venue. He was brilliant throughout the lead-up and during the day – he was discreet, simple to work with, and set us comfortable. We would recommend him to the couple's marriage!"
Excellent food would be a key consideration for Sarah and Jonathan when choosing their wedding venue, and also the chef team in the Old Vicarage didn't disappoint, cooking a truly wonderful feast for everyone to savor.
The couple's favorite part of the day came throughout the evening because they headed outdoors with loved ones for any spectacular and fun sparkler guard of honor!
"Initially this idea was mainly for that photos and videos, but within the moment it turned out to be among the most fun parts of the day. It was so nice to become surrounded by everyone we loved who have been all cheering and waving their sparklers around."

It's a genuine pleasure introducing Adam who married on 9 June 2018 and continued their celebrations at nearby in Redditch, a captivating 16th-century Tudor house. The bride's assortment of vintage crockery and fascination with all things old infused the whole day, and she or he also finds the daintiest of era-inspired Eliza Jane Howell gowns to accomplish the look.
Adam and Emma were lucky enough to get to meet through mutual friends coupled with an eighteen-month engagement before their June wedding.
"Adam surprised me having a weekend away for the fifth anniversary and proposed at Thornbury Castle in Gloucestershire."
We need to talk about Emma's selection of gowns, purchased in Stourbridge. Designer Gill Harvey's gowns possess the most wonderful, vintage influence and marry modern elegance with intricate detailing.
The bridesmaids look oh-so-elegant in their navy bridesmaid dresses from the bridal collection, which they wore with shoes and matching bags. For jewelry, they'd earrings along with a bracelet.
"I always wanted to get married at the chapel where I was raised. Jill, the pastor, continues to be there my very existence and I knew I wanted her to marry me. I collect vintage cups and saucers and have a fascination with all things old therefore we created our wedding theme by using this as inspiration." Here
I love Adam's twist on groom style. He wore classic dark suit trousers having a light tweed jacket and waistcoat, all from, and handle off having a bow-tie from. His groomsmen wore matching suits and also the two little page-boys were also in trousers and waistcoats.
"Our usher Bill provided the vintage Rolls Royce, that is his father's. He drove me towards the chapel after which drove us towards the venue."
Emma and her father entered the chapel for 'The Wedding March' before pastor Gill married her and Adam. They exchanged vows in addition to rings from Birmingham. The newlyweds walked out of the chapel, looking so happy, right into a shower of confetti, before going to Gorcott Hall.
I love both movement and also the charming detail captured by the day's photographer, especially the colorful confetti shots from the newlyweds.
"Izzy was amazing. She just knew steps to make us feel at ease, she constantly snapped and also got some of probably the most amazing natural shots. She paid attention to what we requested."
Emma's talented mum baked the magnificent, semi-naked wedding cake. It looks so pretty decorated with yet more delicate summer flowers from Floral Secrets.
Later in the evening, after time spent within Hall's gorgeously green park, the evening party began with Emma and Adam's first dance to Elvis Presley's 'Can't Help Falling In Love With You'.
"No one moment was our favorite. We couldn't have requested a better day; the elements were amazing, everything visited plan, and we had an incredible day."
Four Leaf Clover at Gorcott Hall laid on the sumptuous afternoon tea. The newlyweds dined together at a sweetheart table, providing them with such a lovely view of the guests enjoying themselves.

This may be the wedding celebration of Cecile and Mark, who has been married around the 4 August inside a church ceremony in Arona, Lake Maggiore, Italy, then a reception in the majestic. The couple was engaged in March 2017, using their legal ceremony happening in Cecile's hometown in France, a couple of months before their Italian celebration.
"Choosing an outfit wasn't super easy for me. I'm slim, and also have very fair skin, so my biggest fear was appearing like a ghost on my small wedding day! My first knowledge about some well-known wedding designers wasn't positive: I was relayed through friends to reach with nude and strapless underwear and lightweight make-up to prevent damaging the dresses."
"When I tried the 'Elvira' dress, there is a long silence. It's then that I knew it had been the right one. This dress makes me feel powerful and elegant so when I put it on, I feel like I could fly. Even after the marriage, putting it on at home and jumping on my small bed up to I can continue to be a great joy."
Before making their method to the church, Cecile and Mark enjoyed an attractive 'first look' moment together, that was captured in most its joy and delight through the couple's brilliant photographer Matteo.
"Matteo would be a real superstar. He met us in London to have an engagement photo shoot a couple of months before the marriage, and even though I usually hate pictures, Mark and I were immediately put comfortably. We then stayed in contact by email."
"His photos, both on the engagement and also on the wedding day, are stunning and truly reflect the atmosphere of your day. I could not recommend him more. If you are looking for some talented and easy-going photographer, don't hesitate, he's your man!"
The bridesmaids chose blush pink bridesmaid dresses, pastel pink, and coral dresses, that they wore using their shoes, fresh flowers in their hair, and earrings.
"My dad walked me on the aisle, or to become completely honest, I walked my dad on the aisle! It was probably the most stressful moment for me personally, and I did walk extremely fast!"
Cecile and Mark first met soon after high school through mutual friends, whilst both on vacation in Brittany.
"We were built with a mini holiday romance during those couple of days, and both went back to their lives when the holiday was over. We didn't stay in touch at the time. Years later, I went to live in Paris to study, and we met again through the same number of friends."
"Mark was residing in London already, therefore we started an extended-distance relationship, along with a year later I went to live in London to accomplish my Master's degree. We moved in together at that time – it had been supposed to become just for annually – I never moved back!"
Tables were laid around the Castello's beautiful terrace, with white linens and pastel-hued floral centerpieces encompassed by rose gold and glass tealight holders.
"Each guest had two favors alongside their plates: a little bag of tea, along with a personalized Polaroid photo. As a nod to England, each table was named following a type of tea (Earl Grey, Darjeeling, etc.) and guests were given a little bag from the corresponding tea."
As the daylight started to fade within the terrace, the overhead festoon lights started to glow, and everyone enjoyed traditional Italian wedding cake, along with miniature desserts of pannacotta and tiramisu.
"We had also were built with a photobooth from throughout the party and our guests loved it! Pictures were printed around the spot, and that we received a hyperlink with all the photos in the provider around the following day. It was great fun along with a good complement towards the photographer's work."

Readers, I have a three-fold Italian delight for you personally all today, and you're likely to love it – the entire day oozes effortless era-inspired glamour, fun, laughter, and smiles. They were married around 18 August, then brunch picnic, which is a farmhouse turned yoga retreat and holiday accommodation.
The bridesmaid's outfits were created by Raphaela, after which were made in Vietnam, with white tops in a variety of shapes and cuts, olive green circle skirts as well as their selection of shoes. In their hair, they wore pretty crowns of gypsophila and eucalyptus leaves.
Raphaela wore an attractive lace wedding dress having a full, ballgown skirt and delicate lace bodice with capped sleeves. Accessories were kept minimal, with only a romantic tulle blusher veil to accomplish Raphaela's look, and shoes borrowed from her Maid of Honour.
Raphaela enjoyed a sweet moment together with her father before getting into a vintage blue Citroen for that journey to Abbadia and Isola to start the ceremony. To Handel's Lascia la Spina, sung by Cecilia Bartoli, she and her father walked together on the aisle.
"Charles is British, and was created in Hong Kong, and I'm Swiss. We've been living an international life! We met in Hong Kong in 2012."
"Charles proposed in 2015 on a holiday to Europe whilst I was seeing friends in Zurich. It was throughout a party with all of my friends, however in a private moment between your two of us." Click
"Since I was living around the globe, and frequently due to work were not within the same place, we had to postpone our wedding from 2017 to 2018. We had our civil wedding in Hong Kong in March 2017."
The couple's service was conducted through the family priest on Charles' side so that they shared traditional Church of England vows. They also exchanged simple gold wedding bands.
For the evening affair, Roxy Rose turned into a far more formal (and equally fabulous) outfit to entertain your guests – a white top hat and white tie, and Raphaela wore her long wedding gown once more, swapping her veil for an amazing and stylish wide-brimmed fascinator trimmed with pheasant feathers, and adding a set of chic sunglasses.
A wonderful Italian feast was served, then a delicious decorated with a lot of icing sugar, and fresh berries along with a unicorn topper.
"We greatly enjoyed the singing within the church, and also the music, but we also greatly enjoyed the sudden rain shower we'd, and also the time Charles and I had together during our photo shoot since we're able to be so close and dance together."

Are you ready for something really special? Join me in London for Sophie and Ryan, who both work within the commercial lighting industry, on 1 September 2018.
"Everything was cream, white and black. It was a conventional yet present-day held within the oldest Catholic church in England. We were fortunate to possess a beautifully warm, calm, starry evening with family and friends celebrating late into the night in The Crypt below."
"After getting engaged in December, I started to check out dresses online the next spring. I discovered one dress that I instantly fell deeply in love with. I took a screenshot and attempted to forget about it as I was built with a feeling it might be out of my budget range. I bought two high-street dresses in the meantime on the internet and tried them on in my own home as the considered going into a marriage dress shop helped me feel incredibly anxious and overwhelmed."
"I loved every piece I tried on but selected the feel times dress. I wore the Laura Drape top having a ¾ length sleeve outrageous to reveal the gorgeous bow behind."
"We met one another at operate in September 2014 – a totally lucky and wonderful fluke as Ryan only agreed to be about to leave to begin up their own company inside the industry. In December 2016, on the freezing but beautifully sunny evening, Ryan proposed in my experience in our favorite place – Fanore Beach around the west coast of Ireland."
Sophie kept her make-up classic and fresh, together with her hair down in soft ringlets for any bit of movement. Helping her to organize was her closest friend, looking radiant inside a soft grey, sequinned gown.
"My beautiful closest friend and maid of honor was nine months pregnant when she walked on the aisle beside me. We found probably the most lovely maternity bridesmiad gowns. My two flower girls wore silk ivory lace flower girl dresses and fresh flower crowns produced by our florist."
Setting the black-tie theme was Ryan in the bespoke tuxedo from Savile Row.
"He chose them for his or her modern yet traditional cuts. They were very useful and quick with alterations and he has been a repeat customer since."
Sophie and her father traveled to Saint Etheldreda’s Church within an electric black cab, before walking down the splendid aisle together towards the traditional wedding march.
"Our most memorable moment was seeing one another at the top and bottom of the aisle. We couldn't believe your day was finally here and that we are so grateful for the amazing family and friends for those of their love and support."
Photographer's romantic yet modern style, by having an almost editorial feel – marries perfectly using the overall vibe from the couple's day.
"Before I was even considering wedding photography, I was browsing plenty of wedding blogs and kept feeling attracted to certain images. I then realized every image I loved was through the same photographer. I just knew we'd have Miss Gen and hoped that they would be free for the date. We were very lucky."
"We loved working Miss Gen. Gen was extremely relaxed, even if I was inside my most stressed around an hour before the ceremony. She made all of us feel at ease and blended directly into every situation perfectly. Our favorite photo is of us around the bridge. We had only been married for around an hour when it had been taken. I love the red bridge using the blue sky behind it – it covers our London wedding. Full of sunshine and plenty of love!"
The empty London streets are the ideal backdrop for that couple's newly-wed portraits, which are extremely beautiful and atmospheric. I cannot, though, overcome the movement and flow of Sophie's gown and also the drape top, also it looks much more beautiful using the bow on full show.

Alexander may everyone as Pickle, as you’ll see throughout this feature! This lovely couple was married on 29 June 2019 in the King's Sutton, Northamptonshire. This was then a marquee reception in nearby Capability Brown landscaped parkland, of a friend.
Sophie and her bridesmaids spent an attractive morning preparing, and also the bridesmaids wore, which Charlotte from then embroidered using their initials. Sophie wore an attractive Italian linen robe, that was embroidered with calligraphy. The bridesmaids wore elegant, bespoke sage bridesmaid dresses, made by Charlotte and also the team following a fun design consultation, plus they wore their very own choice of shoes and accessories.
Sophie gifted all of her bridesmaids quite a moon and stars necklace around the morning of the wedding,
"I wanted a romantic outfit, and moved gracefully, therefore we chose silk organza, having a slight train. The sleeves were embroidered with floral artwork developed for our stationery, together with our names and also the date embroidered up each wrist, in calligraphy that featured across our wedding stationery."
"The back would be a V shape right down to the waist, with olive vines embroidered on the edge. It also had pockets, which I kept among my late grandmother's handkerchiefs, in case. It was so magical so that you can wear something so personal, and developed by someone that means a lot to me."
Sophie and Alexander first met via a mutual friend when Sophie was 19, and Alexander was 20 and became engaged on a holiday to New York with friends in February 2018.
"This was ideal for catching me off guard, as I am notoriously tough to surprise. I had simply no idea, before the moment he was on a single knee – and neither did our friends! It was so great so that you can celebrate all weekend together, we dragged it!" Go
Sophie also sourced a really special vintage watch for Alexander; the same model wore and loved by his father for several years, which Sophie found in Milan. With a brand new strap along with a full service, it had been ready to present, and today Alexander and the father have matching watches.
Sophie and Alexander's photographer, as recommended for them by a friend and filmmaker Will. I’m delighted to talk about her beautiful work here, which is full of light and laughter.
"We were built with a pre-wedding shoot, which I couldn't recommend more to future brides, to be photographed isn't something the majority of us are used to, also it helped get to understand her ahead of time."
"By the time of the wedding, it felt like just having another friend within the room. Her style is extremely romantic, capturing all of the special moments. Looking through them after was great – you can miss so much around the day like a couple."
"We are extremely lucky that among our closest friends and usher, Will Warr, is an incredibly talented videographer, and she has filmed some amazing weddings. We didn't want him working at the wedding, but among his guys filmed your day on his behalf, and we couldn't be happier with the result."
After their first dance, Sophie and Alexander both changed outfits for a fun evening of dancing. Sophie's simple, blush pink dress with wide shoulder straps along with a circle skirt was created and produced by Sewn Right, in which she wore a head hairpin personalized together with her new initials. Alexander wore a double-breasted suit of blush pink linen.
"We had DJ after this guitar rock band, who had been very accommodating when at 1 am, we asked him to carry around the party! He's a genuinely cool guy, and great at working with everyone else."
