We couldn’t be happier that A&H choose our venue and wedding planning services Bespoke Events Management for their special day. It was a day filled with joy, love, and the warmest atmosphere, surrounded by their closest friends and family.

▫️The ceremony took place at our breathtaking Surrey venue, BLMF Bespoke at Littleton Manor Farm and what made it truly special was that it was officiated by a friend of the couple. To add an extra touch of magic, they had a violinist and guitarist during both the ceremony and the reception drinks.

▫️When it came time for speeches, they opted for delicious sharing platters, followed by fish and chips, katsu curry, and wood-fired pizzas.

▫️The dance floor was rocking all night long, thanks to a family friend who took on the role of DJ and kept the party going strong! To add an extra twist to the celebrations, they surprised everyone with the incredible Oompah Band German Jukebox.

▫️A&H decided to provide their guests with cosy bell tents on-site for everyone to stay overnight so that the party could continue. Congratulations to the newlyweds, we are thrilled we were able to be a part of your special day.

We are delighted to share the highlights one of bespoke weddings from last weekend, where two perfect families united as one. The atmosphere was absolutely incredible, with an abundance of love enveloping everyone present. It was a joy to witness the long-term friendships, deep connections, and profound love that filled the air.

▫️The wedding brief was centered around creating a fun, relaxed and vibrant experience for all. We incorporated outside games and a chill-out area with comfortable sofa seating and a cozy firepit. The attention to detail was impeccable. From the teal voile table runners, handmade orange flower lights, and crocheted bunting adding a delightful touch to the setting. To add a touch of sparkle and excitement to the evening dancing, we offered glitter and face painting, engaging both the girls and boys. Furthermore, the groom’s personal touch was evident through the cake he skillfully created.

▫️When we came to toast the newlyweds, we added a subtle nod to their University days with Brixton Brewery and Bristol Cider to set the stage and raising glasses in celebration of the newlyweds. After a restful night under the stars in the divine accommodations provided by Bell Tents, we welcomed the morning with delicious bacon sandwiches served to the guests. As everyone savoured these delicious treats, lively discussions of the previous night’s escapades filled the air, accompanied by laughter that echoed with joy.
to the newlyweds, and may their journey together be filled with endless love and cherished memories. If you are looking to create a truly bespoke wedding please do message us.

Lighting is a huge consideration for any event whether it is a wedding, corporate dinner or private event.

We especially love using the beautiful, tall tapered candles by the Scandinavian company

They come in a huge range of colours and add height and texture to your tablescape - giving a soft, warm light, and creating an intimate and welcoming ambience.

They are 100% natural products and are beautiful to look at, made with care and produced from the purest wax available, making it a sustainable way to add lighting to your wedding or event.
