Marion & Mike 29/05/15

The 29th of May brought the special day of Marion and Mike.

Before the ceremony began a pre-wedding luncheon was served in the farm house. The guests were given a choice of…

Pan-Roasted Cannon of Lamb in Parma Ham, Rich Redcurrant & Port Jus, Garlic Buttered Kale & Purple Carrot

Cornish Sea Bass & Charred Scallop, Lemon Buerre Blanc & Butter Poached Spinach

Both served with…

Crushed Jersey Royal Potatoes & Chive. Fine Green Beans & Asparagus Wrapped in Courgette Ribbons

Followed by…

Brulee Lemon Tart, Raspberry Sorbet, Vanilla Tuile & Chocolate Spear

After their hunger had been sated the guests retired to their rooms to get ready for the upcoming ceremony.

At three o’clock that afternoon Mike and Marion surrounded by their closest family and friends said their vows and were announced as Husband and Wife.

After the ceremony the guests mingled in the courtyard enjoying iced Pimms in jam jars and croquet on the lawn.

The barn was simply decorated with beautiful flowers in vintage tins and vases. The gift table was stacked with home made jams, all lovingly made by the bride and groom as favours for their guests.

After greeting all their guests the new Mr and Mrs invited their guests up to the buffet table for Afternoon Tea all served on vintage crockery provided by Izzy Pops Vintage Crockery Hire…

Sandwiches: Honey Baked Gammon & Baby Gem Lettuce, French Brie and Grape, Coronation Chicken, Egg Mayonnaise & Water Cress

Savoury Boards: Pork Pie & Pickled Onion Chutney, Vintage Cheddar Soufflé Tartlets, Oak Smoked Salmon & Crème Fraiche Blinis, Cherry Tomatoes

Cakes: Strawberry & Crème Pate Tartlet, Butter Scone with Clotted Cream & Jam, Butterscotch Choux Buns

Guests loved the relaxed feel to the affair and the delicious food which they eagerly devoured.

When it was time for the dancing to begin instead of a first dance the bride and groom invited their guests on to the dance floor for a traditional barn dance. The barn was filled with laughter and fun for the rest of the evening as couples were swinging each other round the dance floor to the music.

Best wishes to Mike and Marion, is was a pleasure to be part of your big day.
