Rebecca Moxley and Steven Moxley tied the knot on 1st November 2024 at Layer Marney Tower. In the evening, once the evening guests had arrived and before the first dance, there was a performance from the most majestic fire performer, Lauren. She was dancing and breathing fire. It fitted in with the medieval vibe perfectly and the guests all thought she was incredible.

Rebecca Moxley and Steven Moxley tied the knot on 1st November 2024 at Layer Marney Tower. Steve wore a brown tweed suit that had an orange pin stripe, which worked perfectly with our autumnal colours. He wore a burnt orange tie to bring the colour out and then wore black Converse. The pair wanted to feel like themselves on the day!

Continuing into 2025 is the vintage trend and I loved created this Lambeth buttercream cake. Combining the Lambeth/vintage trend and this year's coffee colour pallette trend - it's a winner from me!

This design embraces movement and texture, combining delicate fabric-like ruffles with organic, abstract detailing. The bottom tier features silky soft ruffles that flow effortlessly, creating a sense of movement, while wild, golden flowers emerge naturally from the folds, adding depth and a touch of opulence. The textured upper tiers continue the organic aesthetic, inspired by the intricate details found in both nature and textiles. A contemporary take on romantic wedding cake design, this piece blends structure with spontaneity, making it a statement centrepiece.

Food was a major focus for foodies, Alison and Jack, and they knew exactly what they wanted, lobster and skinny fries! Dominic Catering served up quite the feast, serving lobster, mouth-watering steak, skinny fries, and fresh salads. For dessert, espresso martini tiramisus, which were a perfect nod to Jack's signature boozy espresso martinis. Alison and Jack Grogan married at Colchester Oyster Fishery, the first wedding to ever take place there!

Ed and Abbie were childhood sweethearts, meeting at school at the ages of 13 and 14. They started 'going out' a few years later after Ed asked Abbie to be his girlfriend on New Years Eve 2011 and have been together and by each other's sides ever since. The pair became Mr and Mrs Clark on Friday 31st May 2024 at Villiers Barn, Thorpe-le-Soken. A standout moment was the 'Aperol hour' drinks reception.

Stetsons and sundowners set the scene for Hannah and Ben's amazing western-themed wedding! Hannah sasys, "The real showstopper came with the father of the bride speech and after a moving but gorgeous speech we were presented with a beautifully wrapped giftbox. We had no idea what was going to be inside! We opened the ribbon with guests hanging in anticipation, looked inside the box and sobbed – they'd booked our dream come true honeymoon, a trip around Texas and Nashville. We cried, our guests cried, our suppliers cried – it was a very emotional moment!:
