Charlie + Jon - Bedford Marquee Wedding
Charlie and Jon's wedding was a beautiful celebration held at the family home in Bedfordshire. While they officially tied the knot at Bedford Town Hall the day before, their wedding day was a true reflection of their personalities and love for each other.
Guests were warmly greeted with a champagne reception upon arrival, setting the tone for a day of festivities. The highlight came when Charlie and Jon surprised everyone by arriving at their wedding via a row boat on the river - a magical moment that left everyone cheering as they deftly avoiding falling in the water when docking on the riverbank!
With glasses raised and hearts full, the grooms led their guests to a picturesque section of the garden where a dear friend officiated a heartfelt ceremony on a bridge over a lake. It was a touching moment shared amidst the natural beauty of their family home.
Following the ceremony, guests gathered on the poolside terrace for a champagne and jazz reception, basking in the warmth of the sun and the joy of the occasion. Later, they moved into a beautifully stylish sailcloth tent for dinner and dancing, where a separate tipi provided a cozy bar and chill-out area that proved popular throughout the evening.
The culinary delights continued with a sumptuous three-course dinner, complete with a dessert station to satisfy every sweet tooth. As a nod to Jon's northern roots, guests were treated to a late-night snack of Pie Baps served from 'The Pie Barn'—the family's horsebox lorry, which had been lovingly transformed for the occasion.
