Alex, oh sweet Alex! I have never met a more humble and sweet Bride, Reece is one lucky husband! It is clear to see from their wedding day how in love with each other this couple is and how much family and friends mean to them! It was a fun filled day with outdoor games and a fire-breather to end a spectacular wedding day! The couples theme of dusty blues and ivory perfectly compliment their personal style and run elegantly throughout the day. Alex originally got in contact with me back in February 2020..pre pandemic days when no one had a clue how the Wedding world was about to be shook up!
They choose the beautiful Rockbeare Manor in Devon to marry at and it is clear to see why. From beautiful grounds to stunning luxury suits, Rockbeare Manor is an exclusive hire for the perfectly relaxed and elegant wedding day.
Took a look below at a snippet of Alex and Reece's wedding gallery for some truly
beautiful wedding inspiration!
Photography by NOVA WEDDING PHOTOHGRAPHY
"My husband has the most piercing blue eyes, so I went with tones that really complimented them as they are my favourite things about him, and the more I built on the ivory and dusty blue tones the more it all really came together"
The Venue
Absolutely recommend Cameron as your day planner he was amazing
at keeping on top of everything for us.
The Bridal Shop
My dress was custom made from a local seamstress and we imported
the sleeves on my first dress from America to match the lace!
The Florist
We had artificial flowers because I really wanted to place them on my nans grave
and that was quite a while away. We used Bloomingdels and nobody would have
known unless we had said.
The Cake
My mum made our cake as it's a family tradition we have.
The Photographer
Nova Wedding Photography, I would have paid 10 times over for them.
They were so amazing and really made the day go with ease.
The MUA & Hairstylist
LashedbyNat!- I've worked with her for years so as soon as I got engaged I booked her straight away as I'd seen her work!
The looking glass hair and makeup - did all 8 bridesmaids and did such a good job,
couldn't recommend them more.
The Venue Dresser
All Floral did my favourite pieces and Torbay display supplied the 9 ft cherry trees
and are the only ones in the country to have them in that shape.
The Stationery
Rella Event Stationery was amazing with working with exactly what I wanted,
we planned our wedding through covid and could only actually confirm our
numbers for sure 5 days before our wedding date due to the UK's changing restrictions but she worked with us every step of the way from covid inserts to extra invites.
Bride Advice
Don't let the speed of the morning get on top of you!
I forgot to put perfume and was 1 hour late even though only getting ready in the room above.
When asked what Alex's favourite part of the day was - "At the end of the night slow dancing with my husband to yellow by cold play in the empty ballroom"
