Gem and Rob’s Colton House wedding was decorated with a mint green motif that made a lovely pairing against the blooming cherry blossoms around the venue grounds. In addition to the delicate mint shade, the couple honored their love of travel with maps and wanderlust-inspired details. The bride wore a semi-bespoke version of the Hepburn wedding dress from the Sanyukta Shrestha ‘Lavender Dream’ collection.


THE INSPIRATION
We found many of our ideas from the natural features around beautiful Colton House. We have travelled all over the world together and therefore there was a large element of travel involved in the decor. There was also a huge inspiration from the 1st of May which is lover’s day in Prague where the lovers traditionally kiss under the cherry tree blossom – this reflected the place where we met. My favourite colour is mint green so there was a lot of mint green EVERYWHERE!
MOST MAGICAL MOMENTS
Walking down the aisle singing Ho Hey with everyone and seeing each other and knowing that you are surrounded by the most important people in the world who have come from far and wide to see your special moment. Almost every single person there had contributed to the wedding whether it was making decor, the cakes, lifting hay bails, sorting electrics, arranging flowers, painting signs or even marrying us! It felt like a day everybody had helped make and shape which made it incredibly personal.
THE DRESS
The Hepburn gown was made out of organic cotton and crochet lace with stunning keyhole back. The backless design of this ethical wedding gown with a bow detail was chosen to highlight Gem’s gorgeous back.
