ICONIC LONDON PUB WEDDING - THE BEDFORD, SOUTH LONDON

Mirror balls, streamers, mustard & hot pink flowers and candles were the order of the day for Mary-Ann & Conor, whose wedding took place at the brilliant Bedford in Balham, south west London, in November 2023.

The Bedford is such a fun setting for a wedding - with a choice of six event rooms above the main pub floor, plus guest rooms all under one roof. Mary-Ann & Conor held their ceremony and reception in the interconnected Cocktail Bar and Private Dining Room - combining perfectly for an intimate celebration.

The ceremony arch - filled with fresh flowers in mustard, shades of pink and muted orange, dried flowers and grasses plus mirror balls in various sizes and sparkling burnt orange streamers - stayed in place for the wedding breakfast, and we added bud vases, beautiful twisted taper candles in yellow and hot pink, tiny mirror balls and sliced citrus to create a fun tablescape.

With a little one of their own, Mary-Ann & Conor definitely knew how to take care of the younger guests too, with a brilliant creche service provided by The Wedding Crechers - games, personalsed gifts, toys & books all set out on playmats and in the sweetest little tipis!

LONDON WEDDING - OLD MARYLEBONE TOWN HALL & THE AMADEUS

Lara & Gus’ gorgeous city wedding celebrations took place at Old Marylebone Town Hall and The Amadeus, in West London’s Maida Vale in December 2022. With styling masterminded by the brilliant Whole Lotta Love, the day was photographed by Marta Ilardo - see some of her gorgeous work below!

With a wintery party vibe but definitely not full festive reds, the day’s flowers were based around a palette of burnt oranges, pinks and textured greenery for bridal and bridesmaid bouquets and buttonholes. A fabulous full-length, front facing runner decorated the top table. Guest tables sat trestle-style, with their own mini runners placed amongst Catered by Justin’s beautiful sharing platters. A foliage-only installation welcomed guests at the entrance, and a sparkling Christmas tree drew attention to the far end, alongside Red Cat’s spectacular lighting. Overhead hung the MOST fabulous streamers by Streamadelica.

COLOUR-FILLED WEDDING IN WEST LONDON

Sally & Jon’s gorgeous colourful wedding celebration was held at one of my favourite places to work, The Amadeus in Maida Vale. A floral arch and aisle meadows for the ceremony were then repurposed for the reception, with the meadows decorating the alcoves and windowsills of the Amadeus’ Upper Hall.
