Bright Wedding Decorations & Gin Bar at Dartmoor Wedding

Photography by Clare Kinchin Photography
The weather has been a bit dull the past week so hopefully we can brighten up your Monday morning with a fusion wedding at Ever After, The Dartmoor Wedding Venue, and bright wedding decorations! The outdoor ceremony was adorned in colourful flowers and was super personal as it was conducted by the groom's close friend who made it all about the couple! The bride looked beautiful in a simple Made with Love Bridal dress (one of our handpicked suppliers!) and wore blue shoes to add a pop of colour and match her new husband who wore a blue suit and shoes too! The bridesmaids looked stylish in white jumpsuits and clutched bright bouquets to match the hoop wedding decor and fun flowers scattered around the venue. The gin bar was stocked with every type of gin you can think of that had all been lovingly made by the bride's parents. This couple loves music so the entertainment was a highlight of the celebration, getting the guests on their chairs before they ate and keeping the dancefloor full all night, even getting the couple up to do a Craig David set on podiums during dinner - a real party wedding!

What Made Our Day Unique

Our suppliers really did go the extra mile. Nicola and team at the venue covered every single detail which wasn't covered by us - one of the guests even said they were amazed there was a special set up baby changing and feeding area away from the party. The band had everyone dancing on their chairs before the main course even came out to gangstas paradise and the bride and groom got to do a special Craig David set on podiums during dinner. The celebrant was the Groom's friend and it was such a unique ceremony - everyone was asking where we found him! It was very tailored to us and there were many mentions of penguins. The bar the Bride's parents made had every type of gin imaginable and a special gin pairing menu with each of the tonics and edible flowers. The florists flowers were unlike any other we have seen and made the place look spectacular.

Bright Wedding Decorations

The bright wedding decorations looked great scattered around Ever After, A Dartmoor Wedding Venue. Throughout the day there were nods to the bride and groom's heritage, including the Rajasthani Indian umbrellas, mendhi hand favours and colour scheme that were inspired by the Grooms heritage and the venue, band and style of the day that were inspired by the Brides heritage. The combination of all these elements made for a spectacular day and one that their friends and family won't be forgetting in a hurry!

Inspiration & Styling

We really wanted a relaxed outdoorsy wedding which was contemporary, suited our personalities, and the coming together of the two cultures. We also just wanted to give our guests a really good time. The Rajasthani Indian umbrellas, mendhi hand favours and colour scheme were inspired by the Grooms heritage. The venue, band and style of the day were inspired by the Brides heritage. The food was a fusion of both! We wanted the day to be vibrant and pack a punch of colour and reflect the party nature of our guests and our own personalities. The bar said it all.
