Charley & Stephen

Date: 03 – 05 – 2019
Colour: Dusty pink and grey
Decor: Floral romance

There is a lot of pressure that comes to your wedding, especially when you have worked in the industry for 18 years! However when it came to our Sales Manager Charley’s big day the beauty was in every detail, from the flowers garlands at the front entrance to every guests own personalised thank you message on their place cards, every tiny detail had been thought through with love and attention.

The venue was dressed beautifully by Elegant Stems, the wow factors being her beautiful long aisle and their top table of 30 guests. Delicate notes of dusky pinks and white with the eucalyptus foliage bringing in gorgeous grey tones.

The new Pickett’s main focus was their guests, opting for three reception drinks and a personalised beer pong table to keep the guests entertained in the evening. Fil Straughn was huge hit entertaining guests during the wedding breakfast and then the party really got started with The London Function Band taking the stage with their 10 piece band. For your own celebration, browse our recommended wedding entertainment suppliers.

Entertainment: We wanted our guests entertained throughout the day, so a lot of our budget was spent on entertainment, we had a signer throughout the reception drinks along with a magician and then a different singer throughout the meal with a band in the evening. It was like a mini festival. Nick Brown (magician) Tom Ryder (signing throughout Reception drinks) Fil Straughan (Singing throughout the meal) The London Function Band (evening entertainment)
