Real Wedding

Relaxed, Colourful, Handmade Wedding | Meg & Sam

Meg and Sam… what a truly personal handmade wedding, from the emotional ceremony to the homegrown flowers and everything in between – They had thought of everything!

Meg and Sam embraced the freedom of a DIY wedding, along with the help of friends and family, they created a wonderful atmosphere in the barns – decorating the venue with colourful bunting, handmade wedding decorations, handpainted signs, and the Bride’s mum and aunties even grew the flowers to be used on the day! Their day was full of unique touches and friends and family were involved with every element.

Meg and Sam chose to have a relaxed wedding breakfast, served buffet style including kebab style skewers in wraps by Holy Smokes and a DIY dessert table by the groom’s mum. In the afternoon guests could grab an ice-cream from Abbey Ice Cream’s cart followed by pie and mash in the evening from The Handmade Pie Company.
