Yesterday I joined Sophie & Marcus for their sun and fun-filled wedding at Goldsborough Hall near Knaresborough!
I joined the girls at a stunning cottage near Armscliffe Crag for their preps, then my wingman Paul and I headed to Goldsborough Hall for the final dressing up! An Anglo/Dutch affair, it was a fabulous meeting of cultures that always get on famously (marked with Dutch and Yorkshire roses in the bouquet)!
Goldsborough Hall has that fantastic blend of being a country house with genuine Regal lineage, but also feels like a chilled, relaxed space to make your own
I love Goldsborough Hall so much it’s one of my top 15 Best Country House & Stately Homes wedding venues in Yorkshire.
Their adorable Spaniel Ava enjoyed her role as ring bearer and treat hunter. Sophie’s brother walked her down the aisle, and his son nailed the reading from Winnie-the-Pooh, before heading out through a tunnel of confetti.
With options to get married in the adjoining St Mary’s Church, on the lawn or in The Princess Mary Drawing Room, you’re spoiled for choice
Outstanding canapés, live music, lawn games and even a live painter (who’d done the stunning stationery) doing live guest portraits made for an unforgettable reception on the terrace.
Before the lovely speeches, nominated ‘captains’ (with armbands of course) kept the vibes high and drinks flowing, and it wasn’t just the newlyweds who were partial to spontaneous dance breaks!
The whole day flowed seamlessly thanks to Ali & Rachel and their ace team, as well as all the awesome suppliers — many of whom had either been recommended or were known to them, such as a friend who made the cake and Sophie’s childhood piano teacher!
It’s so cute that these guys went on their first date exactly 5 years to the day before their wedding, and that Marcus had a groomsman stop his pocket watch at the exact minute they got married, so the moment could be marked forever.
What a fab day and fab bunch! 
Huge congrats to this amazing pair.
