Better Than Bridgerton: Wedding Inspiration in the English Countryside

Dearest readers, the ton are abuzz with the latest gossip – today’s wedding inspiration from AMV Weddings is giving Bridgerton a run for its crown. Set in the English Countryside, The Botany House made floral magic happen at the indoor ceremony with a lush arbor filled with greenery and classic white blooms. With striking castle views, the garden reception and extravagant 6-tier cake are perfectly fit for the diamond of the season.

Amanda Virga of AMV Weddings described this shoot beautifully… Set on the spectacular grounds of De Vere Tortworth Court, the primary inspiration for this shoot was a regal, elegant English Countryside Wedding with a classic white and green palette.

The ceremony was hosted in the orangery of the estate which featured stunning natural lighting coming in from the glass enclosed domes of the ceiling overhead. Our statement ceremony arch was designed to compliment the stone arches of the space, with lush florals growing up from the floor on either side of the primary structure.

The reception was set in the circular gardens of the estate, where we created a round table that wrapped perfectly around the garden, and was completed by the bride and groom’s table situated directly in front of the breathtaking manor house. This statement reception set-up featured an elegant tablescape of white florals by The Botany House and a Bridgerton inspired cake fit for royalty!

Our radiant bride Lily wore a gown from the Alon Livne 2022 Collection. This line was inspired by sculptor Carmen Otero & the world of minimalist art, using waves and geometry to redefine beauty, specifically the natural shapes of the human body in abstract silhouettes. This look fit perfectly amidst the regal, yet relaxed atmosphere of the English countryside. To complete their celebration, the bride and groom were whisked away in a classic British 1958 post-production convertible through the beautiful stone entryway of the estate!
