Real Life Wedding - Pippa & Richard

The Wedding of Pippa and Richard

Last weekend I had the honour of co-ordinating the most beautiful wedding reception in Thirsk.

Despite the weather being a little grim at times during the day no-one let it dampen their spirits.

Pippa the bride looked stunning in a vintage style lace dress, Richard the Bridegroom wore a traditional tartan kilt as did most of the groomsmen. 

Pippa's bouquet  had a very natural garden feel. The whole feel of the wedding itself had lovely relaxed and informal feel to it. Really a true representation of this lovely couple. The whole atmosphere was warm, and welcoming with everyone having a wonderful time. After being together for around 8 years it was so obvious to everyone that they are meant to be together.

The reception was held at Pippa's parents house, the garden was the stage for a beautiful pole marquee, with added gazebos for both the welcome drinks, bbq area and a lovely little lounge area. I think it was perfectly laid out, I think everyone was grateful for the added shelter during the intermittent showers.

It was obvious that everyone in the family had played their part in the organisation, I know that everyone had worked hard to get it right for the day.

One of the favourite parts of my job is watching all the elements come together on the day itself. After just over a year of planning everything ran perfectly.

One of our tasks was to prepare the welcome drinks, a lovely refreshing cocktail of 

lemon and thyme gin

The interior of the marquee looked stunning

Wedding Fair Fun

Wedding Fairs or Fayres as some call them are always fun and a challenge to organise. This year I decided to work with a local venue called the White Horse Lodge Hotel. 

The Hotel is a lovely fairly modern hotel just on the outskirts of Thirsk and has the beautiful backdrop of Sutton Bank. The staff at the hotel have been so kind and have assisted me with some of the preparations. 
On the day there will be some wonderful local exhibitors all hand picked because they offer a top quality service, great value for money and always go the extra mile for their clients.

There will be a bridal catwalk show organised by Clare of Little Quackers in Thirsk, they along with Brides & Belles Northallerton will be showcasing some fabulous dresses and outfits Arty Party will be showcasing balloon art, centrepieces and venue decor. All Cool Classic Campers will be with us too, showcasing their camper vans - they are certainly a great way to bring something a little different for your day. Rhian of Celebrate Country Cake Design will be joining us, her cakes are certainly something special, they are probably the some of the nicest cakes I have ever tasted, based in Helmsley she was an obvious choice. Now you cannot have a catwalk show without some music, so we have a real treat awaiting you, not only will Darren Kirk of Freedom Discos be with us, Will Rawlings a great Cabaret vocalist will be performing live throughout the day. If you have not yet sorted out favours for your guests Jodie will have a table of her delicious truffles, a must on the day - make sure you go over and taste them! http://www.trufflesbyjodie.com/ if your not wanting favours they also make a great gift for mum or with fathers day coming up I am sure she will be happy to help. looking for someone to capture your big day? We have Nikki R Photo and AAE Photography, both excellent photographers who offer great packages, don't forget these photographs will be a permanent reminder and bring back memories for years to come, so its worth hiring a great photographer.

Fitting Send Off for Wedding Pair

The owners of a local engineering firm who waited 25 years before tying the knot were given a steamy send-off at the White Horse Lodge Hotel last weekend, with a little help from their friends.

Wendy and Cyril Bainbridge said it was apt being given a send-off by the 14mph top-speed “Yorkshire Belle” steam traction engine, having taken their own relationship slowly and steadily.

 The couple, from Cold Kirby, whose business, Bainbridge Engineering, makes handling equipment for the farming community, said they were delighted when customers, Alan and Peter Turner from Thomanby, turned up with their recently restored 1916 traction engine.

 Wendy and Cyril held their wedding reception at the White Horse Lodge Hotel on Sutton Road, Thirsk.  The hotel is well placed to cater for local events and benefits from ample car parking and splendid views.  The couple were married earlier in the day at Laskill Country House at Hawnby, near Helmsley.

So for all you local brides who are looking for a beautiful location for your wedding reception check out the White Horse Lodge Hotel  Website

Working in partnership with the Hotel Jules Kelly of  White Rose Weddings, Celebrations and Events is organising a wedding fair on Sunday 19th May 11-3.30pm where lots of local exhibitors will be present, along with a bridal show at 12.00 and 2.30pm as well as live music.
