Your Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Wedding - October/November 2022 (Issue 35)

Raegan and Jack met when she started working for his mum. “Jack used to visit the office to see his mum and we caught each other’s eye,” Raegan tells us. The couple became engaged during a trip to Vienna to celebrate her birthday. “It was a big surprise when Jack popped the question in a beautiful park, about an hour after we had landed!” Raegan says. SETTING THE SCENE Saxon Barn was the natural choice of wedding venue for the couple because it’s situated on their good friends’ farm. “It’s a converted barn with a high ceiling that offers a rustic-inspired setting,” Raegan says. “The local church is located just behind it and, along with the pond on the farm and the beautiful fields surrounding it, it was the perfect place to host a relaxed day which is what we wanted. We enjoyed canapés by the pond in the sunshine and then walked through the picturesque orchard to the marquee, where the sun set behind us. The marquee was covered in festoon lighting which lit up the field all evening and looked so romantic.” The couple styled their day with plenty of white flowers and greenery that complimented the surrounding scenery. 33 REAL WEDDINGS
