A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of assisting the hugely talented @suedaviesflowers and @jojo_blooms as they set up for a wedding at @theoldkentbarn 🌸
It was such a joy being surrounded by their stunning flowers and watching these fabulous ladies do their thing!
If you’re looking for a wedding florist you must check them out, I highly recommend them! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Many giggles and good chats were enjoyed along the way too…thanks for having me along ladies 🤍
That’s better! Now if the rain can just stay away for a little while 🙏🏻

What a glorious day!
This little tawny owl was an absolute wonder. Nestled amongst the bluebells on a fallen tree trunk, he almost didn’t look real.
We did give him a little check over following some advice and we’re pretty sure the little dot is doing just fine! Hopefully mama owl will be back tonight to drop him some dinner. We’ll have another look for him tomorrow…but wow! What a moment! 🥰

Well, it’s been a journey!
12 weeks ago we shed so many tears when we lost our beautiful Oak Tree to storm Eunice, and yet now, we’re sharing tears of joy as our tree has been transformed in to the most beautiful creation!
We’ve been agonising over what, how and where, but with advice and suggestions from sooooo many people (and a good dose of trusting my gut!) we’ve got there.
There’s still much work to do…another sea of wild flower meadows will be planted around the tree base, yay! But this past week has seen such a HUGE transformation.
A huge shout out and thank you to my brother for his digger skills, Country scaffolding for the last minute battle in the clay to get scaffolding in place, and the genius that is Tracey from Fairywings & Chainsaws for bringing the wood to life and spending this past week with us 😍
I hope you all agree that it’s a magical addition and one that over the next few months will really bring a new something special to The House Meadow x
P.S I made a reel to audio, whooop whooop 😉😂
Just a little, tiny, wee sneak peek at what’s been occurring this past week 🦉
The House Meadow has been magical for me my whole life and ten years ago it became even more enchanting when we opened our wedding doors for the first time!
With a decade of growth and change, it’s just wonderful that the magic still finds us and that we get to share it with you all!
Thank you to @fairywingsandchainsaws for her incredible talent in bringing a sad story to a happy ending. Our beautiful Oak Tree isn’t what it was, but it’s found new stories to tell us and these additions have definitely added a new splash of magic to our home 💫

Fairytale Goals 🥰
I’ve been thinking about our venue a lot these past few months 🧐
There are SO many venues out there now. There are hundreds who ace social media, reels, trends and are just ridiculously “cool” 👏🏻
But. I don’t think we’re cool. Not one bit. Not an ounce.
Sure…our couples and suppliers are, and they bring some amazing themes and fashions to life here but as a venue we don’t fit that ‘trendy cool’ bracket.
So, what are we? 🤔
Well, we’re the age old lovers of fairytales in all their cheesy romantic glory💫 Yup, give me all the cheese 🧀
I’m a Disney girl (and definitely not too cool to admit that! 👑 ) and we as a family live a humble working farm life. You’re more likely to hear the Beauty and the Beast or Calamity Jane soundtracks blasting out the barn doors than today’s TikTok trending songs 😂
We’re about nature, authenticity, family, community, wildlife 🍄
We’re big fans the sunsets, the flowers, the trees and the water 🌸
We’re surrounded by animals and wonky beams, playing children and generations of clutter 📚
Our background noise includes tractors humming, dogs barking and bees buzzing 🐝
I ADORE a love story 💞 I will always want to know about your engagement. I’ll want to know the name of your Nan and how she takes her tea ☕️ I’ll want your Bridesmaids to do speeches that make us laugh and cry 😭 I will sob at your personal vows and rejoice when the sunlight hits the water just right to give you that incredible sunset portrait! ☀️
So as much as we’re not social media whizzes or bang on all the trends, I think there’s something mildly cool about just being authentically “us”.
And what’s more, we love it when couples choose us and produce a wedding day that is 100% authentically about them, too 🥰
Here is my daughter, Tabitha (yeah, I also love Beatrix Potter!), in an old clip introducing some of the charm of The House Meadow accompanied by the Shrek soundt

The trick to seeding a meadow is entirely methodical and systematic…but that is equally entirely boring!
I’ve found the best results come from spinning around whilst blasting out Wuthering Heights 🤷🏻♀️
Now whether that ticks the 2g per square meter box we will never know 😂 but hey, it works for me! I had to empty seeds out my trainers at the end though, as they were pretty full!
As soon as I’d consolidated it (driving up and down on the gator tracking it in) we had a glorious light shower of rain. My Kate Bush energy clearly made the weather gods happy 😂 and it has given the meadow the BEST start 🌱
So now, it’s a waiting game…and I’ll keep you (and Heathcliff) posted 🥰

Okay. So there is still a chance that they might all die, but right now I’m kinda proud of this little lot 👌🏻
It’s our first season attempting to grow cosmos, sweet peas, stocks, geraniums and the good old sunflower from seed.
Fingers crossed 🤞🏻

Quite simply...WOW 💕 #thehousemeadow
We've just discovered the most fabulous magical thing....
