Wasn't that a blast? All of us at Team E had the most fabulous day and we hope you did too...

Some of our brilliant friends and suppliers truly pulled out all the stops for our first fair of 2024!

It's always a pleasure to see & meet you lovely lot, especially your furry friends!

We can’t thank you all enough for such a fun-filled day! Let’s go back in thyme and relive through the incredible photography of Rob Tarren and Eve Dunlop.

Keep your eyes peeled on our socials for our next wedding fair, you won't want to miss out!

The Hall & House

After grabbing a cocktail and having a sip it was thyme to head to the house!

The steps were magically transformed into a foliage dream by the wonderful Dot & The Dandelion who also brought the dining room to life alongside the lovely Salt & Scent, did you manage to check out the nods to the Cookery School?

The Main Hall was magically decorated by the fabulous team over at One Splendid Day, the most gorgeous floral displays with enchanting pastel colours throughout. We were peacefully serenaded by the amazing Nero String Quartet & Abi Phillips as we had a browse!

Moving over to our dashing drawing room, you'd find out good friends, Elmore Wines! Always with a smile and bottle in hand for you to try. The wonderful team down at Elmore Church were on hand to chat all about Church weddings.

Did you find Darren Campbell? or had he magically disappeared? What fun he is! As we headed upstairs we were met by the lovely Lucy Phelps, showcasing her skills and talking all things hair.

Looking for the perfect 'Mother Of The Bride' outfit? Shibumi and Annabel Allen Millinery warmly welcomed us to show their fabulous dresses, suits, fascinators and hats... so many colours and patterns! Peter Posh Suits was giving us all the style inspiration...

The Lawn!

There's no fair like an Elmore fair with music! We were truly blown away by the incredible musicians who formed The Oompah Party band, our feet were moving, we were dancing and they brought the party!

Free To Roam kept the spirits high as we walked around The Court, weren't they just fab?

The Coach...

Did you get the chance to visit The Coach House? The perfect place for a sleepover with your bridal party the day before your wedding! We had the wonderful Cotswold Spa showing us all the ways you can relax those pre-wedding nerves and have a pamper from the comfort of the Coach House! 

The Gorgeous Gilly!

What a party we had here and how gorgeous did it all look?! We're still reminiscing...

Sorori truly blew us away, as they always do! All the pinks and purples that brought so much colour to the Gilly. Did you check out the menus & signage courtesy of our wonderful friend at Urban Frame? Isn't she a woman of talent? We can't forget Emerald Paper Design, painting away as we gasped over her designs. 

We just love a visit from Pitch Up & Play because aren't they just the friendliest? For all your childcare needs, check them out! And who doesn't love a photo booth? Mad Hat Photobooth making our cheesy grins shine!

There's always time for cake... right?! Cake Daydream had the most delicious and beautiful selection to try along with Holly Miller who brought out all the stops and gorgeous samples. 

Did you get to have a chat with our recommended videographers and photographers? We can't wait to see even more of what Eve Dunlop, Rob Tarren, Kyle Forte Films & John Taylor Films captured on the day!

On To The Meadow...

As we trotted on down to the Meadow, the atmosphere was buzzing! Painted Peach was dolling us up and adding some magic to the day! Her beautiful face paint was seen on all ages and we loved it. Did you lounge out on the lawn chairs or play some garden games? All thanks to Every Event Hire! The fabulous tipi where so many acts performed was courtesy of Buffalo Tipi!

Speaking of music, wasn't everyone just great? Out on the meadow, we had the incredible Alan Power & The Take Twos and NJ Events with his classic DJ style and we can't forget Summer Sons with their cool Mumford & Sons flair.

All that walking has made us slightly peckish... Pizza and fries anyone? Dough Wood Fired Pizza with their delicious slices and Soul Fries with their yummy fries that were loaded with love! Wholly Gelato with their refreshing and scrumptious gelato that was needed with that amazing sun! And we definitely needed a coffee from King Shots Coffee after all that exploring!
