A DIY Deli Wedding On The Welsh Coast – Claire & Charis

Today on Marry Me Ink I get to share with you this beautiful Welsh coast wedding from amazing photography and alternative film team When Charlie Met Hannah. Brides Claire and Charis met online over 10 years ago where their first date included Claire spilling a cup of tea all over herself. They got married at the cute Cobbles Kitchen & Deli on the Vale of Glamorgan Coast and made a gorgeous back drop to their day.

We’re quite laid-back and not exactly traditional I guess you could say. There were loads of little things in our day to represent us; from our boots and Harry Potter socks, to the music that we love, to the cake (brownies for Charis and blondies for Claire). The whole thing was about us, what we like, what we enjoy together and who we are.

As far as DIY elements in our wedding there were lots. I spent ages writing up chalk signs and spray painting tins, to hold the flowers that lined our aisle. Charis made the little bride cake toppers from Prosecco corks, and drinking Prosecco is always fun!

A Welsh Country House Wedding – Jade & Andrew

Today on Marry Me Ink, I get to share with you Jade and Andrew’s wedding at Bryngarw House in South Wales, complete with a Krispy Kreme doughnut tower, from Larissa Joice Photography.

We met in the pub where I pestered Andrew to buy me a drink for ages before he eventually gave in. I left without giving him my phone number so he tracked me down through mutual friends and then asked me on a date.

I think the favourite part of our day was towards the end of the night when everyone had let their hair down and was just dancing and having a good time. We sneaked off for ten minutes just to have a bit if a breather and take it all in.

A Walt Disney World Elopement – Nicki & Brett

This year we went to Disney and I’m missing it already.. Nicki and Brett’s elopement at Walt Disney World could not have arrived at a better time in my inbox from Carmela Blackwell Photography!

Brett & I met at work. We spoke in passing for a few months then one day we went out for a drink after work and moved in together a week later – we have been inseparable ever since (and still work together). We got together, engaged and married on the same date of each different year since we met.

We had lots of details that represented us – Brett loves skulls and I love Disney so the cake, flowers and colour scheme was inspired by the Disney movie Coco due to the Day of the Dead celebrations. We absolutely loved our cake as it was black but with lots of bright coloured details.

The whole day was magical from start to finish; it is hard to pick just one highlight. Our first look at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge was amazing when we saw each other for the first time, made even more special when a little boy shouted “look mummy it’s a princess.”

We loved walking down the aisle together- it was just the two of us at the wedding and it was kept a secret so we loved that we could enjoy every aspect of the day together on our own.

The people we saw around Disney were so lovely. We had pictures in the lounge at the Yacht Club and were given champagne and the baker came out to present us with a gorgeous white chocolate Mickey Mouse statue and balloons.

A Natural & Romantic Styled Shoot – The Tetley, Leeds

I hope you all had a lovely Bank Holiday weekend? Today on Marry Me Ink I get to share with you this gorgeous styled shoot from Your Choice Photography that took place at The Tetley in Leeds. The Tetley is part of Leeds history, and is a little bit of old meets new with redesign inside which makes for a lovely backdrop and versatile enough for any couple.

Jordan & Jamie have been together some years now, and travelled over from Birmingham to take part in the beautiful shoot. Jamie models in the alternative industry and had just the look that I was after… she is really authentic and very sweet. Jordan is a guitarist in ‘Failure Is An Option’ and the pair give off this natural sweet, but rock ‘n’ vibe!

All the styling on the day was by Add Vintage, Emily created some beautiful looks which were incredible when combined with the illuminations from Love Lights The Way.
