Clair and Stephen’s rustic castle wedding with lots of cute vintage details

Posted by: boho on: October 17, 2011

Morning all and happy Monday to you all,  welcome to another week! To ease you into the week I have a GORGEOUS wedding for you and it’s been sent to me by my good Friend Sassy from Assassynation.  I have to say I LOVE this wedding, it has hay bails, cows, chickens…….and lots of rustic details, all the things I love. The wedding takes place at Danby Castle, a gorgeous venue full of quirky details and lost of charm! It’s a venue I’ve not visited yet but can’t wait to get myself up north to see it, as it looks AMAZING! and would certainly be on my short list if i were to ever tie the knot again (or renew my vows!) I’m a sucker fro any venue where there are animals and a bit of country side!

The wedding is of  Clair and Stephen Butler who got married on 29th August this year.

Did you have any personal touches? Or things that you did yourself?
The cake was a capital “B” with stick in signs saying MR & MRS – this was a total surprise for the Groom. We arranged a basket of flip flops with a sign saying dancing shoes for the female guests and these went down a treat. We had a photo booth, ice cream van and retro sweetie table for the guest to enjoy.

How many guests?
68

What were your special moments and highlights?
The whole day was special- from the vows to the last dance, but we decided to go out for a drive in the VW camper van (wedding car) after the ceremony for a few extra snaps and grabbed the chance to spend some alone time by going for a cheeky drink in the local pub to the venue.

Is there anything you would do differently?
Not a thing

What advice would you give any other couples?
Relax and savour every moment as the day goes quickly and ensure you grab a moment together to take the whole day in.

What was your biggest surprise of the day?
We both didn’t know what one another was wearing and it was a fantastic surprise when we clapped eyes on each other, very emotional.

I’m not usually a fan of red, but here it looks so pretty! Love all the quirky details

Amazing shots! I love the tasteful red splashes. Made everything more exciting. Congrats :)

Eeek! What a ridiculously awesome venue! Love everything about this wedding!

All the way through these photos I was hoping to see some cracking ones using the castle and I really wasn’t disappointed. All the photos are great but loving the last ones, well crafted and great fun wedding photography. Cool!

Well, where to start?? I love the bride’s dress, I love the tea party idea, and I love the basket of dancing shoes. I also really love the bridal party shots, some really unique and inspiring captures. I love it all! :D

Oh that Sassy! What a stupendous wedding – it is safe to say that I love and adore everything in this shoot – and that DRESS! DIVINE! Gorgeous images!

This is one of the most amazing wedding sets I have ever seen! It is obvious that the couple is so full of personality and they let those details shine through in every way, so tastefully. And the couple is absolutely perfect looking together!
