Kallie and Grantt - 'Don't tell the Bride' June 2013

Back in June we were approached by a lovely groom, Grantt. He was planning a wedding for his Bride to be, Kallie, and only had three weeks to organise everything. We received a phone call in the early stages of the planning process as Grantt was trying to find a venue where he could create a storybook fantasy themed wedding. Our Blank Canvas option appealed to Grantt, and after a fun conversation about fire eaters, horses and fairy doors, he decided to come along for a viewing. We knew from the start that the wedding was for BBC3's 'Don't tell the Bride', a show where the Groom takes the reigns and plans the whole wedding with no input or contact with his fiancé.

The following couple of weeks were a little crazy at times, but a lot of fun and Grantt's vision was brought to life!

Here are a few pictures of their fabulous day :)

Our first Wedding - Jono and Lucy May 26th 2012

It seems a lifetime ago now but back in May 2012 we hosted our first ever Wedding at The House Meadow.

The lovely Jono and Lucy had booked their Wedding with us right back when the meadow was nothing but a damp, cold, muddy field. Somehow with their exceptional vision and imagination, accompanied by our mood boards and diagrams they too thought that The House Meadow could be a really special place to hold their Wedding.

Months and months went past and the meadow slowly but surely became all that we had promised.

Jono and Lucy booked some amazing suppliers - many of whom we have worked with since and really believe create a Wedding "Dream Team".

Venue : The House Meadow

Photographer : Anna Marie Stepney

Teepee's : Beautiful World Tents

Caterer : Home Gurr'own

Florist : Idyllic Days/Tiggy Johnson

Such a beautiful Confetti Shot

Florist, Tiggy Johnson, provided the couple with their stunning flowers

Caterer, Nicci Gurr of Home Gurr'own, created the couple a bespoke menu to fit with their Kentish Countryside style using local ingredients and incorporating the couples favourite flavours

The stunning teepee's were hired from the lovely Beautiful World Tents

The Tug of War was great fun for all the gents (and a couple of ladies!) and really made use of the space in the Meadow

The Couple chose the band "Stitched Up" for their evening entertainment but for earlier in the day 2 members of the band played acoustically for the guests
