English Wedding with DIY Details

If charming were a recipe this might be it. Sweet couple, lovely little DIY details, vintage games for the guests, gorgeous flowers, and red rain boots… Told you. Charming. Sent to us by Jodie Chapman, this chic UK affair, is off the charts adorable. The bride and groom were too cute for words and when we heard that the he was a toy designer, we could hardly resist. Oh and the bridesmaids… how positively perfect!?!? Click here to see lots more.

Nicola and Chris got married on a Spring March day in the middle of Richmond Park, London.  Their day was made up of lots of DIY touches, from the birdcage veil and corsage on the dress that were made by Nicola’s bridesmaid, to the amazing selection of retro toys laid out for guests to play with at the reception (Chris is a toy designer).  For their guest book, they chose a vintage typewriter with blank sheets of paper for guests to type little messages.  After the ceremony, we whisked away in the Rolls Royce to capture some gorgeous portraits around the park.  Nicola changed into red wellington boots for the slightly muddy walk to some beautifully stark trees.  Then, just as we were about to head back to the reception, a beautiful rainbow appeared overhead.  Needless to say, we made good use of it and captured some fantastic shots.  It just goes to show that rain and sun can be a winning combination.
