STOP THE PRESS!!!

We’re launching the dates for our January 2025 Open Weekend!!! Saturday 18th and Sunday 19th January 2025 to be more precise! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

We will be flinging open the doors, cracking open the fizz, and welcoming you with open arms for a day filled with all things gorgeously weddingy. There will be sumptuous styling, delicious food, stunning florals, everything your wedding day should be filled with and more besides. ❤️❤️❤️

This is no ordinary Open Weekend. This is a chance to experience Town Head looking like the glittery princess she is, with handpicked suppliers to make it truly shine. 🤩🤩🤩🤩

There will be music, there will be cake, there will most likely be donkeys, although they are contrary beasts and may choose to vanish completely for the day. They joys of being freerange. 🙄😂

And speaking of freerange, you will be free to roam to your heart’s content. From the Barn, through the cottages, to the Beauty Room, the gardens, the lake view terrace, and beyond, all the way down to the Boat House where we will top up your fizz aboard the gorgeous luxury yacht Marguerite. We’ll even give you a lift in our trusty wedding buggy.

If you haven’t yet booked your venue, come along and soak it all in. Our expert wedding team will be on hand to answer any questions you might have, and to chat through your plans. The entire venue, gardens, grounds, and accommodation will be open for you to discover, and we’ll give you all the information you could possibly need to plan a wedding that will make your heart sing. 🥰🥰🥰🥰

And if you have already booked your special day with us, then we’d love to see you for a catch up! There will most likely be questions to be asked, and inspiration to be had. We love seeing all our couples and you might as well make the most of a day at TH in comfortable shoes.

Huge thanks to our epic suppliers who will all be here to show off their wonderful skills, chat to you about your plans and provide bucket loads of inspiration.

Registration is now live, so please follow the link in our bio or visit our website to register! 🥳🥳 🥳🥳🥳

Ellie and Sean. The most joyful and beautiful picture perfect Autumn wedding! The colours, the laughter and the pure happiness radiating from every single image warms the cockles of our hearts.

Massive Congratulations to you both!

Also thank you to who I genuinely believe lives for this season!

Do not adjust your sets….this was not a styled shoot. This was not only a wedding, this was a masterclass in simple, timeless elegance. It’s no mean feat bringing a vision to life and turning a great wedding into a next level wedding, but it’s fair to say that Mikey and Jordan made it look easy. With carefully curated details from beginning to end, and a sense of style that will stay fresh and current, even with the ever changing wedding trends that we’re all trying to stay ahead of (thank you tik tok!) First time for us working with the super talented Lianne from , but it will certainly not be the last.

Bethan and Lloyd. What a day it was!!

Luckily for them (and us) they had booked the dreamteam that is Jo Greenfield : Photographer and to capture every beautiful detail, but when it comes to photographing the party boat, that part is very proudly on us!

So amazing to see the fabulous Marguerite out in full force with all her bells and whistles, lights blazing, music playing, and fizz flowing. And all bathed in the most beautiful September golden hour sunset.

Gifted to the happy couple by their lovely grandma (who was one of the first on board!), what a wonderful way to make their day so amazingly extra special. With no apologies for the music (what captain doesn’t love the Spice girls?!) it really was an evening to remember. Kicking off with a private cruise for Bethan and Lloyd to enjoy some precious time together, followed by extra trips for their guests, it was the perfect way to experience the lake at sunset, and an extra special experience for all of their wonderful guests.

Marguerite is available as an add on for all of our lovely couples, so if you’re stuck for a wedding present….. saying….❤️❤️ ❤️❤️

Showcasing our Italian courtyard! With its twinkly lights, olive trees and beautiful stonework, you could be in the middle of Tuscany never mind the heart of the lakes. On a beautiful summer’s evening there really is no better place for your evening food served straight from the street food truck courtesy of . Nestled between the barn and the guest cottages, you can even nip back for a cardigan as the evening gets cooler. Or for a lie down, depending on how the day has panned out so far…🥰😂

Sophie and Andrew, and the Town Head donkey crew (who as it turns out are huge fans of roasted carrots courtesy of 😂)

Absolutely love these pictures by the super talented . What a day it was! 🤩

I’ve also realised that if you’ve forgotten to bring something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue, then we can help. The new TH defender is 60 years old, you can borrow it for the day and it’s almost blue. More bluey green to be honest, but we’re not going to be put off by a technicality. ✅

So tomorrow is an exciting day.

Apart from it being an epically amazing wedding day, it’s also the day we’re launching the newest and most exciting member of the TH fleet (on land at least)!

Unofficially named Larry, (which is fairly lame although sort of goes with Land Rover), he’s original, he was born in 1958, (series 2), he’s in mint condition and he’s utterly gorgeous. He’s even the same shade of green as the barn doors, which is a happy coincidence!

We did the only decent thing of testing him out with our own children in the boot to see whether they fell out (they didn’t), which just left the tiny admin detail of teaching Tanya how to drive the thing in one day. Lucky for everyone she’s a whiz behind the wheel. 😅

So there we have it. For everything from ferrying you around the estate, to filling with flowers for photos, to filling with fizz for drinks by the lake, we’ve got it covered in proper good old vintage style.

And I cannot WAIT to see the photos, starting with tomorrow!!

😀😀😀😀😃

Sabina and Lucy and their beautiful wedding that was not in the least bit dampened by the great British summer!

We declined their very kind offer to invite George to the festivities, as we decided that even the most enthusiastic of dog foster carers (as these brilliant two are) probably wouldn’t appreciate a giant hairy black and invariably sopping wet dog greeting all of their guests at head height, still he was very flattered to be asked. 🥰🥰🥰

The best day. Congratulations to you both! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Much as though we miss the willow tree, we could never get shots like this before…..so every cloud! 🙃

It’s all go for a same day changeover today, cottages are being cleaned, lawns are being mowed, the barn is being decorated and summer feels like it’s finally here!

Everything in the garden is literally and gloriously rosy!

Very much looking forward to our Open Evening on 14 July so we can show you all! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Alex and Chris. A more local yet exotic wedding you cannot imagine.

These epic world travellers were hot off the plane from Malawi (dog in tow!) where they’ve lived and worked for the past few years, yet the sense they were coming home to get married was overwhelmingly wonderful. My hairdresser the day before mentioned that one of her clients was getting married with us the next day. The choir where our 8 year old daughter now sings in Kendal came along to perform during the wedding, as that was the very same choir Alex belonged to when she was growing up here.

We are a family run venue, and family is at the very heart of what we do, so it’s wonderful when the whole community seems as excited as us to be celebrating such a special day. Congratulations Alex and Chris! ❤️❤️❤️

So. We have news. We are very VERY excited to announce our Summer Open Evening!!! 😀☀️😀

Featuring all of the amazing things we do for our usual Open Weekend in January, namely the tastiest food, the most beautiful cakes, bucket loads of fizz, gorgeous floristry and inspiring décor, but this time we thought we’d try something a bit different….we’re thinking outdoor ceremonies, leaves on trees, flowers in gardens, no blizzards/ice/hailstorms etc….that’s right, we’re switching up the seasons and going all summertime! ☀️☀️☀️

Yes the decision to hold an Open Evening at our busiest time of year may be seen as questionable (!) but we think you NEED to experience the entire venue and grounds in all their summer glory!

We’ll be showcasing the venue in a totally different way at a totally different time of year. Just picture golden hour down at the Boat House, lawn games in the orchard, the gardens bursting with colour, bees buzzing, birds singing, sipping perfectly chilled fizz on the jetty whilst you take it all in, maybe even a paddle in the lake…….

And then there’s the Barn, which literally glows in the evening sun, and which will be full to bursting with inspiration for food, flowers and styling for your special day.

We are so grateful to our fellow suppliers who not only keep agreeing to come back to lend their amazing skills, but who will also be on hand with the TH team to chat through your plans and answer any questions you may have.

So come along and see for yourself, make hay while the sun shines, and maybe, just maybe, you won’t need your coat.

Registration is now OPEN! 🤩🤩🤩

Lake Windermere’s most exciting wedding venue.

Hazel and Dayle part 2! There are literally so many things I love about these, from the gorgeous landscape picture, to the hand crocheted cactus favours (yes you heard that correctly, Hazel did them all herself with all the spare time you have right before a wedding…😆) to the most amazing cake, not forgetting the matching wellies and cameo from the TH tractor! Love it love it love it. 😊❤️😊❤️😊





Cake: Vicki Richards-Green

Did we mention Town Head has a boat? A really really beautiful boat? Dedicated to making your wedding day absolutely unforgettable.

We’ve just been sent the gallery from Hazel and Dayle’s utterly gorgeous wedding from October, and we couldn’t not share these stunning images.

Obviously, there should only ever be one Princess on a wedding day, but I think we can make an exception when the other one is a bona fide brand new Princess 45 in the form of the magnificent Marguerite.

There were so many beautiful details from this wedding which we will most certainly be sharing, but for now these deserve to be showcased all by themselves.

If you would like to book Marguerite for your own Kate and Leo moment, then just drop us a line and we’ll do the rest. 😊😊😊

A little known fact about me and my secret double life in Mountain Rescue….. shamelessly reposted over here to raise awareness of the team (and fundraising for our new base) but mainly because there’s a stale pot noodle for the member with the most likes. And yes it is a competition. Hop over to the page for a nosey. 😀
