Step into a world where botanical beauty meets timeless elegance. Discover how Sarah & Michael transformed a historic estate into their dream wedding venue with lush gardens and romantic details.
When Sarah and Michael envisioned their perfect wedding day, they dreamed of an ethereal garden celebration that would blend natural beauty with sophisticated elegance. Set against the backdrop of a historic English estate, their wedding became a masterpiece of botanical romance.
The couple chose the stunning Ashford Manor for its sprawling gardens and timeless architecture. With its centuries-old oak trees, manicured rose gardens, and ivy-covered stone walls, the venue provided the perfect canvas for their vision of organic luxury.
The ceremony took place in the estate's secret garden, surrounded by towering hedges and cascading wisteria. The aisle was lined with wild meadow flowers and trailing greenery, creating a natural pathway that felt both intimate and grand. Vintage wooden chairs were arranged in a semi-circle, allowing every guest to feel part of the celebration.
The reception continued the garden theme with long wooden tables adorned with lush greenery runners and clusters of garden roses, peonies, and eucalyptus. Vintage brass candlesticks and mercury glass votives created a warm, romantic glow as the sun set over the estate grounds.
As twilight descended, guests gathered in the rose garden for a magical petal toss send-off. The newlyweds walked through a shower of rose petals under the estate's ancient archway, creating the perfect ending to their ethereal garden romance.
