Your Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Wedding- Page number 41 - August/September 2021 (Issue 28)

young things Fonthill Estate in Wiltshire offers three stunning venues for weddings. Stylist Rosie Barrett collaborated with photographer Angela Ward Brown, and a selection of local suppliers, to style an indoor ceremony and sit-down wedding breakfast at Bake Barn, a restored shooting lodge. The tables were decorated with blue and white pottery brimming with blossom, white lilac, delphiniums and daisies alongside cornflower-blue water tumblers and fresh oranges that added a pop of colour. The bespoke stationery captured the essence of the shoot perfectly, featuring a hand-drawn impression of the barn. The bride (dressed in a vintage gown) and groom travelled across the estate in a Jaguar XK120, stopping to pose by the lake in the bluebell woods before heading on to Quarry Wood, a clearing offering outdoor ceremony and dining options. Here, a 1920s-themed picnic scene was displayed under a stretch tent dressed with sofas, rugs and tables. The final destination was Deer Park Barn for dinner at dusk in the courtyard boasting far-flung views of the surrounding parkland. This secluded micro celebration glowed under the romantic festoon lighting and by the sparklers and firepit. Images courtesy of Angela Ward Brown Bright REGIONAL INSPIRATION 41
