Fiona & Rob
Fiona, bridesmaids and her immediate family used Bliss Tweed Mill, set close to their home in Chipping Norton to get ready for the day, where they were met by Neil Hanson, their photographer. Meanwhile the boys were enjoying a quick drink at the local pub near the Dorchester Abbey, the location the ceremony would be taking place, set in the beautiful village of Dorchester-on-Thames, Oxfordshire.
The traditional ceremony set in the iconic Dorchester Abbey was spectacular, not a dry eye in the congregation and after the flutter of confetti and formal photos outside, it was on to the wedding reception for the fun part of the day at Kingston Bagpuize House.
Due to the sporadic showers the drinks and canapés were served inside the grand house, giving the opportunity for guests to mingle and explore the spectacular setting of the stately home before a quick dash outside to see a daredevil private acrobatic stunt plane display in one of the dry spells.
The couple chose to use the marquee to hold the wedding breakfast. Styling the venue with fresh flowers on each table, using the fairy lights set into the marquee canopy to sparkle and charm in the day and bring a beautiful ambiance in the evening.
Fiona's dress was silk and chiffon featuring delicate off the shoulder detail in lace and crystals with a lace and a crystal belt. The couple chose traditional full roses for their cake with delicate ruffles, sugar paste flowers and a spectacular gold shimmer to the middle layer.
Fiona's two close friends were her bridesmaids, wearing chic black, one shoulder knee length dresses that were subtle and elegant, complementing the men's traditional tail-coats, waistcoats and ties fabulously. The little flower girl wore a pretty white dress and white pumps.
