Wanting a mix of old and new, their vibe gives you that antique look with a modern feel. Complete with beautiful pastel wildflowers, coloured vases and a selfie mirror. We’re just loving this creative and fun-filled day!

Gender Neutral Wedding at Lyde Court With Personalised Vows

Viva Magenta! The Pantone colour of the year is the perfect colour choice for Amanda & Ceri's hot and stylish retro wedding! They were inspired by 'Romeo and Juliet' with their neon sign and plenty of candles at the reception. The film, 'True Romance' was the inspiration behind their pink Cadillac wedding car. Ceri is non-binary so the couple decided to de-gender their day as much as possible with a gender neutral wedding. The couple had the most epic 'I Do Crew' with gorgeous black dresses.
