At the end of 2007 I was hired by Daniel and Aniela to organise their wedding for Spring 2009. The wedding was never going to be typical with a civil ceremony, mixed faith blessing and afternoon tea in one venue, then cocktails and dinner at Aniela’s parents home. They were both clear on having a wedding that reflected their personalities and tastes, the end result was just breathtaking. They have been a joy to work with and I miss their emails and banter already. The wedding is due to be featured in You and Your Wedding so watch this space for more details.
In the final part of our report we show you how gorgeous the reception was.
It was amazing how difficult it was to choose photos for this post, there were so many wonderful detail shots to show you that cutting them down was hard. I hope however the below gives you a taster.

Aniela and Daniel
The reception was held at Anielas family home in Great Henny, Essex. We hired
giant tipis which created a brilliant impact when driving towards the house.

Guests found their names via individual tags on a willow tree.

On the tables we used royal blue cloths which worked so well with the design and canvas of the tipis.

We rolled the napkins then tied with raffeta, the names were on luggage tags which Aniela stamped with little lovebirds.
