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!

The reveal that we did with our photographers Charlie and Hannah (When Charlie Met Hannah) was the highlight of our day. We were both so excited to see what we were wearing!! And then the photos/video at the beach, just the two of us. It was really nice to just take that time with each other. And to take our minds away from everything that was happening for a little while. Both Charlie and Hannah were a dream to have around and help us relax, have some fun before the serious bit!

I am absolutely in love with everything about Claire & Charis’ special day – their blondie and brownie tier is making me hungry!! You can see their full list if sparkling suppliers at the end of the post – Thank you to them both and to When Charlie Met Hannah for sharing their day with Marry Me Ink! Make sure you watch their wedding video – It’s amazing!
