A Beautifully Small and Intimate Lake District Wedding
Tammy and Martin chose a small, intimate full-day wedding with just 18 of their closest family and friends. Their guests stayed nearby at the lovely Stepping Stones on Under Loughrigg, just a short stroll from Cote How, while the happy couple made a stylish entrance in a classic open-top car from Cumbria Classic Cars.
Their heartfelt ceremony took place in our light and airy Fairfield Room, followed by drinks and canapés on the terrace overlooking the fells. Afterwards, the newlyweds wandered down to the lakeshore for photographs with their adorable miniature dachshund, Pancake—brought along by Nigel from Dapper Dogs, of course!
The celebrations continued in the barn with a delicious three-course wedding meal, plenty of laughter, and a beautiful first dance to round off a truly joyful day.
You can experience the magic of their day in this stunning 8-minute wedding film, beautifully captured by the talented Jo Greenfield below.
