The family bond at this celebration is a real treat to see, you can see how important each guest at their wedding is to them and will give you some great inspiration on ways to involve your nearest and dearests. </p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_7368995121649322057874.jpg" width="1024" height="684"></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 24pt;">"Don't act like you're not impressed"</span></p> <p>I can't be the only one getting Anchorman vibes from this groom's party shot! The guys have complimented their outfits by inverting their colour scheme - here Jordan is wearing a tailor made suit from Bebe Tailor in Vietnam which consists of brown trousers with a blue tie, and his groomsmen are wearing blue trousers and a brown tie. The braces are a fab touch and always adds a little bit of extra fun to a suit. </p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_83314908731649322347022.jpg" width="1024" height="684"></p> <p>Fran is overjoyed with the end result of her bridesmaids final outfits, in matching teal multi-tier dresses from Phase Eight which have been complimented with different hairstyles for each creating a less uniform bridal party. </p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_13070209241649322685476.jpg" width="1024" height="685"></p> <p>Fran looks incredibly beautiful in her Wed2b gown, face shaping curls and natural look make up, styled by Marybeth Trigwell, you can see just how elated (and co-ordinated!) her Mum is during this first look whilst delivering the bridal flowers from Amber at Little Thatch Florist. </p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_60720224351649322977315.jpg" width="1024" height="1534"></p> <p>The bride's family and bridesmaids walked together to the ceremony through this pituresque country lane in Somerset which has been adorned in beautiful bunting which will continue into their wedding marquee. </p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_1182372771649323220815.jpg" width="1024" height="684"></p> <p>Their ceremony was led by Fran's bridesmaids on a stage in this stunning garden area making this celebration even more special and intimate, who best to share the stage with you whilst you promise your lifetime to your true love than your best friends?</p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_9289570281649323658520.jpg" width="1024" height="1534"></p> <p>The bride's brother Ben Hardy-Phillips, the front man of The Jacksonbury House Band no less, accompanied the ceremony with an acoustic guitar. See how I mentioned the familial bond in this wedding inspiration? Everyone has a part, it's truly wonderful!</p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_91429202291649323805897.jpg" width="1024" height="1534"></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 24pt;">You may now kiss the bride!</span></p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_132853309101649323886594.jpg" width="1024" height="684"></p> <p>Fran and Jordan were welcome into their wedding reception with sounds of The London Street Band, complete with brand instruments and drums in perfectly co-ordinated outfits to the bridal party - looks great! </p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_109548521111649324160679.jpg" width="1024" height="684"></p> <p>Here is a wonderful selection of cakes for the wedding guests to enjoy, creating a buffet style table of treats offers a village carnival atmosphere of family and friends sharing a celebration. </p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_808489914121649324507150.jpg" width="1024" height="1534"></p> <p>This carnival style atmosphere carries on into the wedding breakfast by Mes Amis Cafe Deli, which is laid out on a wooden buffet style tables with hessian wrapped jam jars, vinyl table names and personalised Jacksonbury cups offered to guests as wedding favours. </p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_533107469131649324694516.jpg" width="1024" height="1534"></p> <p>Both the couple and Fran's parents offered joint speeches during the wedding breakfast, with only the Best Man taking centre stage alone for his speech - this is a great way of breaking away from patriarchal traditions (if this is something you'd like to do!) by inviting both the bride and the mother of the bride to speak. Have you chosen a way to include both of your parents? I had both of my parents walk me down the aisle on my wedding day, a memory for the three of us to cherish forever. </p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_391181499141649324744475.jpg" width="1024" height="684"></p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="../blogimages/0137856942/mceu_729843596151649324777074.jpg" width="1024" height="684"></p> <p>The sign of a good Best Man speech is on it's way to you now... (I love the contrast between the couple, the parents and the Best Man's preparations. With the latter being the only one not to have a paper speech prepared...was it written that morning perhaps?!
