Your North West Wedding - February/March 2025 (Issue 90)

We bought a lot of the décor ourselves; this included gold cutlery and lanterns. Adam and I chose white blossom trees to get married under. These were then moved to the top table for the wedding breakfast. We also had white drapes across the ceiling and in the evening we chose blue up lighting to tie in with our colour scheme. We added beautiful blue candles to our centrepieces. Our cake was a three-layer sponge from Adeline’s Tea Room, with lemon drizzle on the bottom, white chocolate and raspberry in the middle, and red velvet on the top. Around the outside was white icing and pearls, finished with a topper. North Lakes Hotel & Spa was the second venue that we looked at and we knew it was the perfect place for us. Jen was so welcoming, instantly putting us at ease and answering all of our questions. We loved the venue’s homely and family feel and the touch of luxury and elegance. We chose blue and white hydrangeas with eucalyptus from Aroma Florist for the tables. For my bouquet I really wanted white anemone and blue thistle incorporated into it. The staff at North Lakes Hotel & Spa and our photographer, Naomi House, went above and beyond when our florist had a crash on the way to the venue! They went around the property trying to find any blue flowers we could use. Thankfully, the flowers did arrive on time, but the way they dealt with it made it seem like less of a crisis. 37 REAL WEDDINGS
