London Wedding by Marianne Taylor

June 17th. 2010 by Erin | Filed Under | 29 comments

We are going to take a little trip across the pond today with Queens and High Tea and gaps to mind. That’s right, we have our sights set on London and you know what  this most fantastic of cities has to offer?  Beautiful, whimsical weddings centered around a good old fashioned English Tea Party. This lovely event photographed by Marianne Taylor is quintessential London and it is mighty handsome. You might just have a new gaggle of favorite details. From the double decker bus to the insane dessert spreads, we’re talking awesome detail overload here. Get ready folks. In the famous words of Paul Revere…”the British are coming, the British are coming”….but this time it’s really, really good.

Anna & Russ’ charming London tea party wedding took place on a beautiful spring Friday in April. Anna had put such care into every beautiful detail, that the whole day was literally bursting with prettiness! Everything from the gorgeous Montague Hotel, where Anna was getting ready, to her beautiful dress and accessories, and especially the flowers (oh the flowers!) were carefully thought out to carry the theme and colours throughout the day and the different venues.

Anna has a keen interest in the Tudors and so Fulham Palace was an ideal venue for the reception. Being a tea party, the food consisted of delicious sandwiches and mouthwatering cakes, which were all laid out in the most gorgeous manner, such a feast for the eyes as well!

There were also lots of thoughtful little touches, such as a bead bar for the young ones to make their own jewelry, and a pretty awesome candy buffet, which got both the children and adults pretty excited! This really was the most charming wedding!

  2. LemonBride says:

  5. As the florists for this wedding, we're thrilled that our work has been featured on your site. This had to be one of our favourite weddings so far and, we can't thank Marianne Taylor for her gorgeous photography. The flower in the first row of pictures is double cherry blossom and we managed to get the last of it before the season finished. Everything about this wedding was perfect and we loved every minute of it!

  19. Anna says:

    I'm the bride and have to say that I am incredibly touched be your kind comments. It was a perfect day and it was wonderful to see everything come together so perfectly. I had a great team around me though!

    Vanessa, my beautiful sister wore a dress from Coast. Abby, my veil was bought at Blackburn Bridal in Blackheath, London but I'm afraid I can't remember the designer. The veil was one of my favourite things about the day!

  20. Christine says:

    Where did you get those shoes?! I've been searching and searching for something in that color...

  21. Anna says:

    The shoes are from Monsoon, and were an absolute bargain, I couldn't believe it when I saw them as they were exactly what I was looking for, but at a fraction of the price!

  22. Anna, I wondered when your amazing wedding would be blogged! Such lovely details. Was so nice to be a part of your big day, and also see what went on in the afternoon from Marianne's pictures! x

  23. Russ says:

    Hi I'm Russ, the very lucky groom.

    What many will find amazing is that Anna conceived and planned this all, despite claiming not to be creative. I beg to differ, her imagination and attention to detail is evident in our beautiful day. Now you know why I love my beautiful bride.

    A huge thank-you to the team of suppliers who we can't recommend highly enough:
    Marianne Taylor Photography, Victoria and Simon at Euphoric flowers the team at St George’s Holborn, Dressmaker Stephanie Allin, Candy buffet gang at Party Belles Events, Severin Hubert for Hair and Lina Cameron for Make-up, and Abby at the bead bar Beadoir, not forgetting Helen at Polly Pootles.

  24. Jennifer says:
