The Wonderful Wedding of Katie & James

Katie and James, both doctors living in the lovely Tadcaster, arrived on the Friday, armed with family, friends, and miles and miles of homemade bunting! Katie’s mum had lovingly made the most beautiful hessian and white lace bunting and it was the first thing to go up in the barn! Their fabulous florist Wild Floral Couture dressed the tables with jam jars full of flowers and the Lych gate looked stunning with accents of purple. 

The Fabulous Emma & Marcos

The lovely Marcos and Emma, and their fabulous Ava, had been planning their special day with us at Hornington for months and months, and we were so excited when they moved in for their weekend of celebrations. Their dream wedding barn vision came true with the help of the wonderful Wedding Venue Lighting Company who supplied a curtain of twinkling fairy lights to frame the dancefloor and strings of blub lights across the whole barn. The space was totally transformed and the barn looked fantastic.

The fantastic Rebecca & Matty

Rebecca and Matty were the most fantastic couple and we were all so looking forward to their big wedding celebration arriving at Hornington Manor! The couple arrived with their nearest and dearest to set up and dress the wedding barn beautifully on the Friday morning and so shortly after lunch it was complete.

With the help of their venue stylist My Something Borrowed, who provided all of the exquisite props and decorations, it was all hands-on-deck, resulting in one of the quickest and least stressful set ups we’ve seen at Hornington Manor so far!

Emma & Lee’s Special Day

We have over sixty species of wild birds here at Hornington Manor, with eleven of them being on the threatened species list, and it is safe to say they were all in full song to wake Emma and Lee’s wedding guests!

The rain had not stopped all week until thankfully the Saturday morning, which was perfect timing as the preparations had well and truly begun. Everyone was busy getting ready, and ensuring everyone was perfect before they made their way to the church for the wonderful wedding ceremony.

Katie & Richard’s Big Day

The Wedding Party moved in on the Friday prior to the wedding and immediately the party mode was in full swing, as it too was Katie’s 30^th birthday.

The wedding barn was decorated with beautiful sunflowers matching the glorious sunny weather for this special occasion, which were supplied by Katie’s Auntie.

Each table was named after roller coaster rides and the three tier wedding cake matched this fun theme by being amazingly shaped and decorated to replicate the Big Dipper ride. It even had Richard and Katie in fits of laughter hurtling down in one of the carriages.

Katie & Rich’s Fabulous Day

The beautiful bride and groom had travelled all the way from Australia, and gathered in beautiful Yorkshire with all their family and friends to celebrate the love for each other. The sun shone all day, which really put a smile on Kate and Richard’s guests.
