If you’ve seen Ancaster Mill wedding photos before you’ll probably have noticed the interiors are very heavy with wood and a little bit rustic with original stonework showcased in different areas. It’s been fun to have had the opportunity to work on a few weddings in all of the Ancaster Mill’s reception spaces as they’re each so different. Even the outside looks so different through various times of the year with the beautifully maintained grounds.

While I’m certainly a lover of colourful wedding palettes, it’s always been more on a warmer or summery palette this one felt really special as Chey and Neil wanted to go more pastel. and whimsical, something that was a little unfamiliar to me! Being a designer herself, Chey came with strong ideas that were fun to help her develop further and bring to life, creating a wedding design that is romantic, elegant, and soft, with a refined yet whimsical charm. She designed all of the invitations and wedding day stationery even making custom enamel pins for her guests as the cutest wedding favours as a nod to her business, Sugarbones.

Chey’s dress was "Phoenix" by Enzoani, a lace wedding gown with custom sleeves and a long, flowing veil, giving her a timeless and ethereal look. Her bouquet and all the reception florals featured pastel hues with a mix of peach, blush, soft blue, and cream flowers, adding a delicate and romantic touch.

The tablescape design had a simple white linen base which allowed the colourful florals and blue candles to pop. We had even more fun with the place settings with the four different coloured water glasses that allowed the eye to keep moving around the room. The scalloped edge menus and place cards were the cutest trendy element that somehow felt right at home and timeless with her style.
