Your East Midlands Wedding - Apr/May (Issue 31)

We had outdoor games such as croquet and boules. Everyone got involved as it was such a lovely sunny day. Blooms were the most important thing to me when it came to the décor. The tipi was full of them. We put them everywhere we could think of! For our centerpieces we filled different sized jars and bottles with flowers and herbs picked from our garden. My neighbour owns a stunning old car that he kindly offered to let us use. The journey to the church involved a very steep hill, so the best bit was getting to the top! It was so lovely sharing the experience with my dad. I love David Austin, Keira roses so my bouquet was brimming with them. Our bridesmaids carried smaller versions that looked gorgeous.
