Vintage in the Park Wedding Fayre - Sunday 16th October 11am-4pm

After a £5 million facelift, Old Down Country Park is ready to reopen its doors as a licensed venue.

 

The park will now be able to play host to civil ceremonies and receptions and in keeping with its beautiful Victorian house, will be celebrating with a vintage wedding fayre, hosted by Liz Gayther of Lizzy May Photography.  

Liz says: "The idea comes from a new movement in the weddings market - 'vintage'. The idea is to celebrate all things timeless, individual and quality. To me, this seemed to be in keeping with the Victorian elegance of the house, as well as the nature of Old Down itself - being a little quirky! Choosing the brightest and most creative exhibitors should make the event a little 'edgier' than the norm for a wedding fayre. This will hopefully taking advantage of an increasing market of couples looking for something unique with an individual service. I see this as a great opportunity to promote the new venue, as well as give local suppliers in the Bristol area a chance to display their work." 

Entry to the event is free but visitors are encouraged to enter the prize draw, the proceeds of which will go to 'Cots for Tots'.  Entry to look around the park will also be free.

Beautiful Bristol pre-wedding shoot

Having been lucky enough to meet the lovely Martin Pemberton, at The Little Wedding Helper's launch earlier this summer, I was super excited to bump into him in the middle of an engagement shoot.  I knew straight away that I needed to share the photos with you.

Martin says: "Craig and Hayley met at school and have been together ever since so they're real childhood sweethearts. They are getting married next year in Weston after being engaged for a year or so now. Craig proposed at the top of the tower in Uphill, Weston-Super-Mere, where he lit a lantern to celebrate the romantic that he is (although he won't admit it, in case his football team get to hear about it - he's already been 'fined' for having photographs taken with Hayley).

Martin offers couples a free pre-wedding shoot on the run up to their special day so that they can get used to working with him and they can develop the style they want for the wedding.  By offering this extra service Martin gets to really know the couple and I think that's a lovely idea.
