Your London Wedding - May/June 2023 (Issue 89)

During the ceremony my sister read a lovely poem and my brother played acoustic versions of our favourite songs, including Heat Waves by Glass Animals and Cosmic Love by Florence + The Machine. That made the day even more special. The decorations were minimal, but all closely thought through by Liz to match our theme. Our florist created an incredible archway flanked by beautiful dried pampas grass arrangements that created the backdrop for our ceremony. We were looking for a venue in East London, as it’s where we’ve lived for almost 10 years. We immediately loved Core Clapton because it was a great space and a blank canvas that we could turn into something that really suited us. Our bridal and bridesmaid bouquets and buttonholes all complemented the theme. The floral styling was reflected in the small centrepieces that were created by my mother who’s got an amazing eye for design and details. We had long, dark wooden tables rather than traditional circular ones and they looked great. 30
