It’s been, and will continue to be a challenge, but 2021, we’re ready for you!

Thank you for making our wedding day spectacular
Dear Jake, Gabby & The Team,
Just wanted to say a quick thank you for making our wedding day spectacular, memorable and completely hassle free.
You guys were amazing both on the day and leading up to the wedding, especially when we had to rearrange.
We never imagined getting married during a pandemic would be as incredible as it was!

Hi Gabby and Jake!
We just wanted to say a massive thank you again, we truly had the best day ever! Totally surpassed our expectations! We really didn’t know what to expect with our new world wedding day, but you both were amazing and put us at such ease.
Thank you for allowing us to stay so late as well! You really did go above and beyond! Please let us know the invoice for all the extras and if there is a way add a couple of bottles for you both we’d love too, to say thanks!
Also, if there is a preferred review site we can leave a happy review we’d love too!

A Nature Inspired Barn Wedding in Somerset
We’d love you to join us on an escape to the idyllic Somerset countryside for a celebration in a characterful eighteenth century barn, beside an ancient watermill, set within immaculately landscaped English country gardens. Here, our couple sought to bring the beauty of nature with them indoors, with wild meadow flowers and whimsical touches, as well as a traditional tea ceremony to honour our bride’s Chinese heritage.
