The heart of Liz & Tony's wedding this Summer was the dancefloor! πππΊβ¨οΈβ€οΈπͺ©
πHere are our top tips for planning a wedding! π
β Start by putting the kettle on! β
Sit down with your partner and discuss what you want from your big day. Make a list of 'must have' and 'not essential' for both of you. This is also the point where you clarify your budget. π°
π° Go get some inspiration! π»
Head to Pinterest, grab some wedding magazines, hit the wedding fairs, make a mood board. However you do it, find your inspiration and work out how to bring the vision to life.
π€ Get to know your suppliers! π«Ά
Find suppliers local to you or your venue ( we can help you with that! π) and request some quotes. Getting more than one supplier to provide a quote is useful, so you can see what works best for your budget.
π« Who's invited? π₯
Ask yourself "Would you take them out for dinner and pay for their meal?" If the answer is yes, then absolutely invite them to your day! If you would buy them a drink but perhaps not a whole meal, then invite them to the reception only. It can be the most difficult part of planning your wedding, as of course, you want to celebrate with all of your loved ones. But if you have a limited budget, you might need to be selective.
π Get creative! πͺ‘
Try to DIY some elements of your day if you can. Bring the wedding party together to help. It can be something small like putting together 'Survival kits' for guests staying overnight for your special day. Those personal touches are sometimes the ones people remember the most! π₯°

Nicola and Ben shared their special day with us back in August 2023. ππΎ
"We first went to see Elms Meadow when the tipi was not even up and knew from that moment this was the ideal location for our wedding. The wildflower meadows and the views. It didnβt disappoint on the day. We booked it over a year before and Claire and Barry were the best throughout and nothing was too much trouble. They even let me choose the beer for my family for the day from their brewery as I know how hard they are to keep happy. Everyone loved the venue and all the extra touches. When night fell we got some amazing pictures round the fire pit. Thank you so much for making our wedding everything we had dreamed of."
Thank you both for those kind words! π
