Inspired by their stunning venue, the epic Marlfield House, Stephanie and Philip chose a romantic botanical theme for their intimate wedding of just 40 wedding guests. Enhancing their theme with flowers, greenery, hints of blush and gorgeous hand crafted stationery - this wedding by In Love Photography is perfect inspiration for any of you dreaming of a floral filled spring/summer wedding.
A creative duo Stephanie and Philip met eight years ago in Dublin, however after a few months Stephanie moved to London to work in fashion. Therein lied months of long distance before Philip joined Stephanie in London. Then last year Philip got work in Los Angeles, where Philip and Stephanie are both now based.
During their time in London Philip proposed at one of Stephanie's favourite places. Stephanie remembers..."Phil surprised me with a pink champagne picnic (during a heatwave) in my favourite spot in London, a lovely old square called Pond Square in Highgate. He had picked a lovely floral design antique ring which by chance fit perfectly."
Having spent the majority of their relationship abroad Philip and Stephanie decided to return home to marry with their friends and family. Keeping things intimate Stephanie and Philip limited their guestlist to just 40 people, with whom they celebrated their ceremony and reception at Marlfield House.
The charming ceremony was held in the beautiful print room, and was organised by Philip. Stephanie recounts..."Phil organised the ceremony and it was so lovely, he chose some beautiful classical music pieces which created a really nice atmosphere and picked a Yeats poem and Oscar Wilde quotes for family and friends to read. We had lots of personal touches and it was so nice to see them all on the day. My sister and I made the dried rose petal confetti, and my brother in law made the confetti holders. It felt extra special seeing everyone throwing the confetti."
Adding an extra special touch Stephanie designed and created all of the wedding stationery, including the amazing wrappers on each guests chocolate bar wedding favour.
Huge congratulations to you both and thanks so much for sharing your wedding day with us all! A big thank you also goes to Wim from In Love Photography for sharing his work with us.
