A Music Festival Theme
“We are both music lovers, and we envisioned a music festival wedding featuring a guitarist playing,” Gemma shared. This theme set the perfect backdrop for a celebration filled with laughter, love, and incredible music. The couple chose sage green as their color scheme, inspired by the signs Gemma kept encountering online, demonstrating how the universe can guide us toward our dreams.Their selection of table names, all inspired by their favourite indie rock bands, along with charming welly boot centrepieces, added a fun and playful touch that perfectly reflected their vibrant spirit! These personal elements not only showcased their love for music but also created an atmosphere where guests felt connected to the couple’s journey.
Elements for a Great Barn Wedding Day
One of the most delightful surprises of the day was the appearance of an Only Fools & Horses van, a nod to Chris’s fandom. Gemma couldn’t resist this touch which added an element of fun and nostalgia to the celebration, making it even more memorable for their guests. The van served as a great photo opportunity, and guests loved posing next to it, capturing the joyful spirit of the day.
Food and Drink
When it came to food and drink, the couple was thrilled with their selections. “The food was amazing from the beginning to the end,” Gemma noted, especially appreciating the venue’s ability to cater to her gluten intolerance. This consideration made the dining experience even more memorable for both Gemma and Chris.
Favourite Moments
Looking back, the couple couldn’t pinpoint just one favorite moment from their day. “Our favorite part of the day was everything; we wouldn’t have changed anything about our day,” they shared. The incredible Heritage Venues staff and on the day events team at Lillibrooke Manor played a significant role in ensuring the day went smoothly, allowing Gemma and Chris to focus on enjoying every moment.
