Summer Barn Wedding
At The Ashes Barns
Pre-wedding Prep
The Ashes Barns resides within fifty acres of pure countryside bliss, making us the perfect location for the most incredible Summer Barn Wedding. Sam and Sarah’s summer wedding was absolutely beautiful from start to finish, so we couldn’t resist sharing their gorgeous day with you.
Beautiful Sarah was already glowing on arrival under the glorious morning sun as she made her way up to The Dressing room accompanied by her gorgeous wedding party. They settled into their cosy pamper room and kicked off the celebrations early with a bottle of fizz to settle those pre-ceremony nerves.
Sarah’s bridesmaids certainly threw themselves into their role, assisting Sarah in any way they could. As the ceremony time grew closer, they carefully helped Sarah into her awe-inspiring mermaid style gown. Her beautiful dress featured a strapless neckline embellished with delicate Alencon lace appliques and subtle iridescent sequins that gently shimmered as she walked. She finished this off beautifully with a dazzling crystal belt around the waist to add a touch of glamour.
The Guests Arrival
Meanwhile, Sam arrived looking super sharp with his dependable groomsmen who were all stylishly matched in tailored navy suits. Sam stood out wonderfully by pairing his suit with an eye-catching check waistcoat in a gorgeous warm grey; he really looked the part.
They arrived in plenty of time, dressed with a smile, ready to welcome the guests and keep them entertained prior to the big occasion.
The Ceremony
Reception Drinks
Following the ceremony, guests were welcomed outside with trays of refreshing drinks and tasty canapes served by our catering team. The glorious sun reflected the warm and cheery atmosphere as guests mingled and fully embraced the summer vibes, while being serenaded by a wonderful live string quartet out on the formal lawn. While guests were left to enjoy their refreshments, Sarah and Sam took the opportunity to sneak off and take advantage of the delightful weather to get some fabulous intimate shots in the beautiful grounds
Wedding Breakfast and Speeches
Guests had certainly worked up an appetite after all their post-ceremony celebrations and excitedly took their seats in the magnificent East Barn, ready to welcome the happy couple with enthusiastic cheering and applause. The clinking of glasses and rattling of knives and forks on plates echoed through the barn as everyone fully indulged in the delicious delicacies served up by the Jenkinsons catering team.
Before long, it was time for the highly anticipated speeches where loved shared some kind words and raised a toast to the gorgeous couple. There was laughter, tears, and a few risky jokes along the way, but the smiles on Sarah and Sam’s faces made it clear that their Summer Barn Wedding was everything and more than they’d ever dreamed of.
The Party
As the sun went down and the evening festivities began, those Summer Barn Wedding vibes were very much still alive as the warmth of the summer evening still lingered in the air. Sarah and Sam chose Ashmore Brothers live band, one of our Handpicked Suppliers to entertain them for the evening, who kicked off the celebrations in style.
Guests gazed in awe as Sarah and Sam took to the dancefloor for their first dance together as husband and wife. It wasn’t long before guests couldn’t resist joining them for a night filled with romance, electricity, and an undeniable feeling of togetherness.
