A Vibrant Dorset Country House Wedding: Luxury Florals and Personal Touches at Forde Abbey

Laura and Archie’s wedding was a stunning celebration of style and personal flair, set in the picturesque Dorset countryside. Although they hailed from London, the couple chose to celebrate their special day near Archie’s hometown at the magnificent Forde Abbey. This choice allowed them to infuse their unique personalities into every aspect of their wedding, creating a day that was both elegant and distinctly theirs.

A Lesson in Personal Wedding Style

Their journey began with a heartfelt ceremony at the local church. Laura made a memorable entrance in fabulous rainbow heels that added a splash of vibrant color to her elegant look. Archie complemented her perfectly in a stylish blue suit, with floral ties that matched those of the groomsmen. Their choice of attire was a fantastic reflection of their individual styles and set the tone for a day full of personal touches and fun.

The reception at Forde Abbey, a stunning country house wedding venue, was a visual feast.

The floral decor by Fleur Provocateur was nothing short of magical. Their whimsical luxury florals added a touch of enchantment to the setting, beautifully complementing the historic charm of the abbey.

One of the most memorable personal touches came from Laura’s creative talents. She crocheted adorable figures of herself and Archie as the bride and groom to adorn their wedding cake. This handmade detail was a heartfelt nod to their love story and added a unique, personal touch that guests adored.

As the evening set in, the party truly came alive. Guests were treated to the energetic sounds of the Brass Junkies, a super fun band that kept everyone on their feet and dancing well into the night. To top off the celebration, HonestFolk served up delicious cocktails, adding a cool and contemporary twist to the evening festivities.
