Maria & Richard's Wedding - 30th May 2010

Congratulations to Maria & Richard who had travelled from their home in America to celebrate their marriage in Derbyshire on Sunday. After a ceremony at the Old Brampton Church, Chesterfield (which included a fantastic performance from the choir Dale Diva) guests then enjoyed the picturesque journey through the peak district to the reception at the Maynard, Grindleford. The perfect setting for their 'English Countryside' themed day!
During the drinks reception guests enjoyed champagne and canapes in the garden whilst Simply Strings performed. Dinner was then served (including local favourite... Bakewell pudding!) followed by an evening of entertainment from Ceilidh band Govannen. The dance floor was never empty as the caller encouraged the guests to partake in English country dancing! It looked great fun!
Here are a few photos I took whilst setting up the ballroom...
As you can see the 'English County' theme really works in the panelled ballroom, with the distressed lime wash chairs and the mis-match china full of wild flowers.
The beautiful cake with sugar flowers that matched the brides bouquet was created by Love Candy Cakes.
Thank you to all the suppliers that made their day perfect!
Maria & Richard have been a delight to work for, I do hope their day was everything they wished for and more! Lisa x
