A gorgeous day at Cragwood yesterday for Max and Katherine πŸ’• But boy was it windy! Thankfully we had plenty of pegs and supplies to keep all the decorations from blowing away 😝

Along with the chairs, arch, gazebo decorations, aisle runner and mantelpiece decorations, we also created an 'order of the day' ladder (a first for us) which looked great alongside the crate table plan.

Part 2 of Jack and Francesca's dreamy Inn on the Lake wedding! We moved the blossom trees from the ceremony to frame the top table, used the aisle pieces on windowsills and in front of the top table, and dressed the guest tables with a mix of blossom trees and cylinder vases. What a gorgeous day!

If you've tried going on our website in the last couple of days you will have noticed it's down - hosting server malfunction πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« Our old site can't be restored so it's going to be our new site going live (we've only been working on it for the last 6 years so it's about time 🀣). We hope to have it up and running in the next few days. Any enquiries before then you can email us [email protected].

And to cheer us up here's a gorgeous photo from David Goodier Photography of an outdoor wedding set-up at Castle Green Hotel - managed by Legacy Hotels & Resorts last summer πŸ₯°

Kelly and Guy's wedding at Broadoaks Country House was a dream, with stunning details captured by David Goodier Photography. Our lush greenery moongate, adorned with pink flowers, provided a breathtaking backdrop for both the ceremony and wedding reception. Complementing this they chose pink floral aisle decorations, elegant candle centrepieces and white drapes with fresh greenery to decorate the chairs.

🍁 STUDIO OPEN AFTERNOON 🍁

If you're in the area attending any wedding fairs on Sunday come and see us too! Our studio will be open from 3-5pm and we will have many of our venue styling items out on display.

We are a little tricky to find and not all maps direct to the correct location. The most reliable is Google, which should take you straight to our door.

Look forward to seeing some of you then!

Wow what a whirlwind of a summer - we've styled some gorgeous weddings (time for a photo catch-up) and the weather has been keeping us on our toes for planning outdoor ceremonies! As was the case for the lovely Laura and Ian at the Castle Green Hotel - managed by Legacy Hotels & Resorts on Friday. Thankfully, despite a short rain shower just as the ceremony was due to begin, they got married outside in the stunning gardens. The decorations were then moved inside ready for the wedding breakfast and it looked so pretty!

Our Story

We are a creative wedding and event venue styling company based in Kendal, Cumbria, serving the beautiful Lake District, Lancashire and the North West. Purple Swan was formed in 2009 by Carla and Francis, and later joined by Catherine in 2012. Trained in 'Set Design for Film, TV and Theatre', Carla had worked in the theatre and film industry for over 10 years. Having spent time in London working long hours on film sets, including 'Harry Potter' and 'Nine', she and Francis moved to the Lake District in search of a more relaxed life. Here the perfect opportunity arose to start 'Purple Swan'. Returning to his native Northern pastures, Francis has been running a successful web design company for 7 years. He has used his extensive business and marketing expertise to help promote 'Purple Swan' to the successful company that it has become, as well as tying the odd bow! Our daughter Isla was born in 2012 and 'Granny' moved up to Kendal to join the team. Also known as Catherine, she is an experienced seamstress and a brilliant baker / cake decorator among many other things, and is a huge asset to 'Purple Swan'. Our son Flynn was born in 2016. In 2014 we moved the business out of our home and in to our wedding studio in Kendal - a big but exciting step! It’s fantastic now having the space to set up table designs to show future brides and grooms their ideas, display a range of chair covers as well as all the other decorative items that enhance a wedding.

We absolutely love our work and all the wonderful people we get to meet along the way!
