We know Alex from Flowers & Feathers well as she makes our Christmas wreaths, so we asked her to use feathers and shotgun cartridges in her flowers to go with our theme. We also had lots of greenery, gypsophila and roses. Jo from Cake Occasions made our brilliant cake; the bottom tier was chocolate, the middle was vanilla sponge and the top was sticky toffee pudding. It looked like a log slice at the bottom and the top two tiers were a naked, white effect. It had a heart carved into the design to represent when Rob carved ‘R Heart J Forever’ when we first met. Our favours were bottles of home-brewed sloe gin, which we also used as place names. The table plan display created a lot of attention from our guests; it included feathers, a flat cap and shot gun cartridges. Rob used to go shooting at Browsholme Hall and The Tithe Barn many years ago, so when he mentioned the venue, I looked it up and we decided to go to an open day they were having. As soon as I saw it, I knew straight away that it was the place I was going to get married, and we booked it practically the same day. It’s a stunning venue, and it suited our style perfectly. We opted for a grey colour scheme and decorated the space with light-up letters from Invite & Light. 38
