Your North West Wedding - June/July (Issue 80)

The cake from Sugar Ruffles was a tree effect with our initials carved in the middle. We decorated it with white roses and added two deer to the top. Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa provided the catering, which was absolutely fantastic, especially the roast sirloin Cambrian beef. Our tables were named after Beatrix Potter and the characters that she created, such as Peter Rabbit. For our centrepieces, we chose glass jars and figurines which we placed on log slices surrounded by eucalyptus and tea light holders. We hired Chiavari chairs and a white blossom canopy tree which we placed behind our sweetheart table. We also had bathroom vanity baskets filled with the essentials and a flip-flop basket, glow sticks and inflatable instruments which added a bit of fun to the evening entertainment. Martin introduced me to camping and fishing, which I never thought I’d enjoy, but it turns out I love it! We like going and spending time with each other in Windermere, so getting married there was really fitting. We picked Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa as it was right opposite the lake where we fish, and we loved how beautiful the hotel and surroundings were. Growing up, I’ve always been fond of Beatrix Potter, so getting married in a location that she was known for ticked all of our boxes. 32
