ardington house summer wedding

What can I say about Ashlyn and Hunter’s intimate Ardington House summer wedding? Well, it will probably be one of those weddings that will stay on my favourites list forever. After three long years and many postponements, it brought me great joy to finally see this wonderful couple tie the knot and have the wedding of their dreams. They chose to have a small summer wedding celebration in the Oxfordshire countryside surrounded only by their families and closest friends. They had a heartfelt ceremony filled with joy and laughter. And of course, a scrumptious wedding meal was shared between them and fifteen guests at the back garden of Ardington House.

Working with Ashlyn and Hunter over a period of almost three years has been a joy in spite of the circumstances brought on by the unbelievable year of 2020. It may be a longer period than normal and it came with unusual challenges. But it enabled me to really get to know them well. I love how through this long process, I also got to know their families and was warmly welcomed into it on the day of their wedding.
