Claire & Nathan, Ness Botanic Gardens

Childhood sweethearts Claire & Nathan tied the knot at Christchurch in Barnston on a gorgeous May day, before holding their reception at the beautiful Ness Gardens. These stunning photos of their day were taken by the lovely Pixsmiths Photography.

Ness Gardens is one of our favourite venues, it's natural beauty lending itself perfectly to our decor with a particular rustic charm. We dressed the conservatory ceiling with white voile panels, for a softer, more romantic look, and decorated the tables with rustic centrepieces, finished off with pretty arrangements from Leaf Flowers, Heswall.

The rustic yet romantic theme continued outside, with our bunting used at the entrance and the World Map Seating Plan to help guests find their place. The white oversized balloons added a touch of whimsical charm to their display of crates and jam jars with more beautiful flowers.

The gorgeous cake was created by Natalie's Cakes & Bakes, with a delicate ruffle design on the lower tier and hessian and lace trim. They even included their beloved family dog on the silhouette cake topper.

The photos of their day look truly stunning, and we wish this delightful couple a lifetime of happiness together! xxx
