moon and back Abi and Ben’s wedding day had the ultimate al fresco vibe Images courtesy of Kirsty Mackenzie Photography TO THE Abi and Ben’s big day was on 2nd July, 2022, with Fiesta Field’s Spirit Lake, Dorking, setting the scene. Spirit Lake is a beautiful 30-acre space that includes manicured gardens, two lakes, a walled garden and surrounding woodland. “Our wedding day at Spirit Lake was absolutely perfect. The first decision we made while planning was to have an outdoor venue, so that we had total flexibility with vendors and other elements of the day,” shares Abi. “We loved that we were able to customise every aspect of the day and we are so grateful to all our vendors and family/ friends who worked to make it happen! It was also important to us to provide a range of easy accommodation options for our guests, so Spirit Lake was perfect with nearby hotels, on-site glamping and free camping!” The wedding styling was both classic and modern, with white florals paired with accents of gold, pink and neon. Abi adds, “The ‘to the moon and back’ phrase set the theme for the day, as we often say it to each other, and have written it in many celebration cards over the years.” Here, we find out more about their day..
