Florence & Robbie’s Kingston Country Courtyard Wedding
Florence & Robbie had their wedding day in August 2024, and it was the perfect day! The weather was perfect, and the couple decided to have their ceremony outside in the top garden – which I think is the perfect choice! After the emotional outdoor ceremony, we stayed in the same area for the drinks reception Flo & Rob were cerenaded by a wonderful vocalist singer too, which made the drinks reception all the more memorable. After the group photos, everyone sat down for a tasty hog roast in the barn room, which was decorated beautifully! We then had the speeches which were just as emotional as the ceremony, followed by some couple photos. Once the evening had begun we were joined by the DJ, and everyone danced the night away! It was a warm summers evening, and so there was a lot of socialising outside, and we ended the night with sparklers too which was a nice touch…
Take a look below at the best photographs from the day! I delivered 673 in total, and below are my favourites. The order got muddled up when uploading so I apologise for the random order! This is a fantastic and photogenic Dorset Wedding Venue, and one I am a recommended supplier for!
