Romantic autumnal wedding with fairy lights | Rachel & Andrew

Today we are featuring the beautiful romantic wedding of Rachel and Andrew! The two lovebirds chose to exchange their vows on a beautiful day of autumn with an intimate wedding full of romance and elegance. The wedding ceremony and reception was so romantic with lots of fairy lights and beautiful flower arrangements combined with rustic details which made the scenery even dreamier. The bride was stunning in her mermaid wedding dress with lace details and long sleeves holding her colorful bridal bouquet. See all the unique moments of this beautiful couple through the following photos!

The bride shared with us: “We were both travelling around California with friends when we met!”

“For my bridal boutique I chose lots of different flowers and leaves in beautiful autumnal colours.”

“He proposed at Camber Sands beach during a weekend away. We were engaged for 18 months. We’re best friends and I can’t imagine spending my life with anyone else. He brings out the best in me and supports me to be me.”

“My wedding dress was the second wedding dress I tried on. I thought I wanted something simple, but as soon as I tried it on (along with a veil!) I knew I wanted something more dramatic. I tried on a fair few more dresses but kept on coming back to it. The Bridal Emporium were amazing at helping me choose the beading, colours and alterations so it felt like it fitted perfectly on the day.”

“Ι didn’t do a‘first look’ before the ceremony, it was all a surprise!”

“The readings of our wedding were the Touched by an Angel – Maya Angelou and A reading from The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.”

“We wanted it to really feel like ‘us’ so quite informal where all our friends and family could relax and let their hair down. We tried to keep things simple and focus on how we could spend the most time with the people we love and what would help them to have a great time.”

“For my wedding table decoration Jo from Clock Dandelion gave amazing advice. We wanted to keep it simple whilst also adding colour with the flowers in milk bottles and warmth with the tea lights.”

Bride’s advice: “Enjoy it! The day goes so quickly so take all the moments you can to remember it and soak it all up.”
