Your Berks, Bucks and Oxon Wedding - December/January 2025/2026 (Issue 116)

THE FARM Down on Bex and George’s English country wedding took place on Saturday 9th August 2025 at Stonepit Cellar with wine produced by Stonepit Vineyard Images courtesy of The Photography Mill Bex and George met at their best friend’s wedding, where she was the maid-of-honour and he was the best man. “I proposed to Bex in our stables surrounded by our animals and our dog,” George tells us. The couple chose Stonepit Cellar as their wedding venue, owned by George’s aunt Fiona and her husband John. “It’s close to the church of the village that we live in,” George tells us. “The view across to Olney is beautiful, and we wanted to feel like we were celebrating in a natural meadow to let our pygmy goats run around. My aunt and uncle also have their own vineyard, so we were able to enjoy locally produced wine.” Bex and George’s special day enjoyed a taupe, rust and cream colour theme to tie in with the rustic venue. “We used local suppliers to help create our dream day, including a team of florists whom we know, and we also did a lot of the planning ourselves,” they tell us. “We wanted a Turkish and Greek-style menu, and Martin from Chill Pepper Event Catering did an amazing job. Our guests loved the award-winning crepe van, La Crêpe Franglaise.” Bex chose a beautiful wedding dress from Gloucestershire-based White Canvas, which was altered by Adriana’s Bridal in Milton Keynes. “Our bridesmaids wore full-length dusky pink dresses and our groomsmen looked great in their taupe two-piece suits teamed with white shirts,” Bex says. The couple entertained their guests with garden games, including giant jenga, plus they had vintage tractors for their guests to climb on. “Our goats were a highlight,” Bex says. “They accompanied us into our reception to The Lonely Goatherd from The Sound of Music.” REAL WEDDINGS 27
