Anran Devon Wedding With Chandeliers

Photography by Paige Grace Photography

There are venues that have it all, and then there are venues like Anran, Devon. We're talking getting married in a hut lit by a whole ceiling of chandeliers, enjoying a sun-drenched reception in the courtyard, and then dancing the night away in a stunning glasshouse. If you can't quite picture it, then don't worry! Recommended photographer Paige Grace has done the hard work for you, capturing Liam and Katie's incredible summer wedding that featured all of that and more. Star Wars references? Tick. Incredible wedding dress from Recommended supplier Made With Love? Double tick here. And oh yes, the fact they pulled this all off after five postponements. Yes, you read that correctly. Liam and Katie, we salute you! You've given us all the inspiration we could ask for and more, and just wait until you see their incredibly creative film-themed table plan...

Our day was a reflection of us to a tee. We both have a passion for the natural world and our venue just aligned with this style so perfectly - it was the ideal combination of earthy, chic and modern with a laid back vibe. All stationery, signs and little touches were handmade by me, including our movie quote escort cards! Everything was just so us!

ANRAN DEVON

We did a lot of research throughout planning and searched through Rock My Wedding many times! We knew we wanted a venue in Devon or Cornwall and Anran felt like it was perfect as soon as we saw it. It's just so unique and staying with guests for a few days turned our wedding into a much needed holiday after the Covid lockdowns. Having a small group with us at the venue for a few days before the wedding was game changing - not only were they all extremely helpful and let me boss them around, but we had so much fun and everyone bonded!

WEDDING STYLE

My dress was Georgie from Made With Love. As soon as I tried it on, I just felt confident! The dress itself is so simple yet classic, completely fuss free, but still features a 'wow factor' open back detail. In the evening, I changed into Opal from Grace Loves Lace. The pearlescent satin material gave me such an Oscars vibe, it really oozed party time and was loose enough for me to dance the night away! The men wore sage green suits from Moss Bros along with some bespoke waistcoats. They looked fantastic and suited the whole venue, Anran Devon, perfectly (no pun intended!).

Any advice for couples planning their wedding? I know this advice gets mentioned a lot, but it is so important. Remember, the day should be what YOU want it to be. Lots of people will have different opinions and may not agree with what you choose, but your wedding should be a reflection of who you are as a couple!
