Larkbeare House in Exeter has long been a favourite wedding venue of mine. With its stunning gardens, elegant architecture, and intimate charm, it has provided the perfect backdrop for countless beautiful weddings. But this one was bittersweet.

They chose the Bickley Mill Inn in Stoneycombe, Newton Abbot, a charming spot nestled in the Devon countryside. With only 25 of their nearest and dearest gathered, it felt like the sort of cozy affair where everyone knows everyone else’s name, and by the end, I think I did too!

Two ceremonies, an outdoor setting, and some last-minute surprises kept things lively from start to finish.
