About the Wedding
Anna & George created one the most colourful weddings of the year so far and we loved it! The florals were an incredible display of all that Spring has to offer and complemented the gorgeous outfits worn by the Bride & Grooms parties perfectly.
The day started off with laughter and smiles all round amongst the bridal party in the make-up room and the groom’s party in Tyrell cottage. Once hair and make up was complete, Anna was ready to move across to Dryden to get changed into her beautiful dress from Halfpenny London. Ready and waiting to see the first glimpse of the bride was Anna’s close friends and family and at the end of the aisle was George nervously waiting to see his bride.
The beautiful ceremony was followed by drinks and canapes in the bar & Barn. Soon came time to be seated for the full vegetarian wedding breakfast and some heartfelt speeches. The florals and colour scheme was simply stunning. Claire from Hibiscus Floral Design made the room sing!
We asked Anna & George how the felt about the day and why they chose Crockwell and this is what they had to say:
“We had the most beautiful wedding day at Crockwell in April. We booked just after lockdown and were really impressed on our first visit and knew that it was the right venue for us – it was the intimate feel of Crockwell that really appealed to us – we loved that we got it for the whole weekend and that it was family run. It felt really personal. Communication throughout the planning process was excellent, all of our (many) questions were answered really quickly, they were really flexible with requests we had and were accommodating.
The weekend of coordination was excellent, Katie was our wedding coordinator and our day would have been so much harder without her. We loved that such an excellent service was included in the cost. She really helped us to feel calm on the day, helped guide us through different parts of the day and what to expect when. She was invaluable. All of the staff were so helpful in setting up and also packing up and clearing up – we felt taken care of throughout and everything ran completely to plan thanks to the service. Bar and wait staff were super attentive to our guests!
The venue itself is beautiful – especially the grounds & their dogs! We had so many compliments from guests on how beautiful a day it was and family who stayed said it was so nice to have the weekend to celebrate and that the morning of the wedding was really special – just to have some time together before all the excitement! They also have excellent caterers and recommended suppliers.
Thank you so much to all the staff at Crockwell for supporting us to have the best day of our lives”
We couldn’t have been happier to create their perfect day and share a day that was the epitome of happiness, from colours, laughter and dancing, this wedding was one to remember!
