From the very start to the very last song this was an amazing wedding.....and when I mean start, I mean from the initial booking back in June 2024, Megan & Calum have been an absolute joy to deal with, I've always said, a wedding will be as good as the people there, they have amazing freinds and family who just wanted to dance and have fun, it made my job so easy & what an absolute joy just watching people living for the moment.

A 'HUGE THANK YOU' 🙏to Anna from Southwood Hall who always amazes me with her energy levels and level of details she puts into every wedding, Southwood Hall is an amazing wedding venue, one of my very favourites and somewhere I really look forward to going back to.

It just leaves me to say once again a 'BIG THANKYOU' 🙏to Megan & Calum for putting up with me and it goes without saying I wish you both the very best for the rest of your lives together, much love ❤️

Why go rustic for your wedding in Suffolk & Norfolk?

Rustic weddings have become one of the most popular themes across Suffolk and Norfolk – and it’s easy to see why. Our counties are blessed with beautiful countryside, charming barns, and timeless estates that naturally lend themselves to a relaxed yet elegant rustic style.

1. Perfect Backdrop – From centuries-old timber barns to rolling fields and meadows, Suffolk and Norfolk offer some of the UK’s most picturesque settings that fit effortlessly with rustic décor.

2. Relaxed Atmosphere – A rustic theme takes the pressure off formality, creating a warm, welcoming vibe that makes your guests feel instantly at home.

3. Versatility – Whether you prefer a chic countryside look with fairy lights and exposed beams, or a boho-inspired barn with wildflowers and natural textures, rustic works with almost any style.

4. Local Charm – Going rustic allows you to embrace the best of East Anglia – from local produce and ales on your menu, to seasonal flowers and artisan touches.

5. Timeless Appeal – Rustic doesn’t follow trends; it celebrates nature and simplicity, meaning your wedding photos will feel classic and romantic for years to come.

So you’ve finally decided its time to get married, what next……well THE most important thing to arrange is the legalities of the marriage, but what does the registrar actually do and why do you need one?

Being located in Suffolk, my local registrars are but for each county in the UK you will need to contact your local office.

📜 The Role of a Registrar in UK Weddings
A registrar is a local council official who is legally authorised to carry out marriages and civil partnerships. Their main responsibility is to make your marriage official in the eyes of the law.

✅ What a Registrar Actually Does
* Checks your legal paperwork before the wedding (notice of marriage, ID, etc.).
* Explains the legalities of marriage and ensures you understand your rights and responsibilities.
* Conducts the ceremony using an approved script (with some small personalisation allowed, like readings or music – but no religious content).
* Asks you to repeat legal declarations and vows that are required by law.
* Oversees the signing of the marriage schedule/register and ensures it is correctly completed.
* Registers the marriage so that it is recorded officially.
* Issues your marriage certificate (usually shortly after the wedding).

⚖️ Key Points
* The registrar’s job is about the legal contract of marriage.
* The ceremony must take place in a licensed venue (registry office, approved wedding venue, or certain religious places).
* Content is restricted – it cannot include religious readings, songs, or rituals.
* The registrar does not personalise your ceremony beyond the legal framework.

👉 In short:
A registrar makes your marriage legal and ensures everything is recorded correctly.
