This Enchanting Wiltshire Wedding is Unlike Any Backyard Wedding You’ve Ever Seen

May 11, 2019 | Junebug Weddings

Lucy and Andre are giving us all the boho country vibes today with their at-home Wiltshire wedding! The palette of dusty pinks, greens, and purples complimented the countryside landscape while the boho-inspired details and Lucy’s Grace Loves Lace gown added a whimsical feel that was perfect for a summer celebration. The couple and their loved ones poured their hearts into the decor, the desserts, and the bar, making this wedding feel as charming and heartfelt as could be. Virginia Photography truly captured the enchanting feel of this Wiltshire wedding in every single photo!

The Couple:

Lucy and Andre

The Wedding:

Church of St. John the Baptist and Private Residence, Wiltshire, United Kingdom

Our wedding was my parents’ house in the Cotswold, which is an idyllic spot. We are both quite relaxed and hated the idea of having a formal stuffy wedding. So, boho country vibes was a no brainer!

I know weddings are meant to be about one couple but, for us, it was a day full of so much love for our friends and family…and friends who have turned into family. We both say our favourite part of the day was taking a step away, looking back and saying to each other: “This is epic! All the people that we love more than anything in the world are all here in one place.” For that reason, it was truly the best day of lives!

We brewed the beer for the wedding and the favours, and I also made the blackberry vodka shots from blackberries I had picked in the village. A friend made our cake, we had lots of friends make things for our sweets table, and we made loads of decorations to deck out the whole place ourselves!

The elegance of Maison Noir and the natural beauty of Cape Town were on full display in Caroline and Patrick’s gorgeous wedding! Happinest Weddings helped the couple bring organic sophistication to life with stunning white orchid floral arrangements created by Bouwer Flowers, minimal and modern decor, and greenery galore — all of which played up the inherent beauty of the venue. Nothing was over-the-top but everything we visually stunning. We adore the bride’s chic BHLDN x Jenny Yoo gown, which she paired with a simple greenery wreath, and can’t get enough of the creativity of these images captured by Page & Holmes Photography!

Caroline and Patrick

The Wedding:

Maison Noir, Cape Town, South Africa

We are Americans who currently live in Ethiopia. We did not want to get married in Ethiopia and were unsure where in the US we would get married so we decided to have a destination wedding. We chose South Africa due to its natural beauty and sort of randomly found our venue, Maison Noir. We decided to take the risk and book it after just seeing photos before we traveled to South Africa and to see it in person. Once we did, though, we were elated because it was even more beautiful than the photos! The actual villa is stunning with beautiful and thoughtful details and is surrounded by the mountains.
