Claire & Ryan’s Hardwick Moat summer wedding was my second time to this rural hilltop venue, and this time we were treated to a stunningly sunny day. The wedding day had fun festival vibes with the decor and VIP passes and wristbands, plus the evening entertainment of rock band and then a house DJ made for the perfect celebration. The day began with guests arriving at this charming countryside venue, a beautiful marquee on a farmland hilltop with splendid views of the surrounding landscape. The outdoor ceremony was conducted by the bride’s brother, which made the vows extra personal and memorable. After the mighty deed was done, guests enjoyed a drinks reception and some garden games. It was the perfect summer afternoon and spirits were high. We did the usual family and group photos, and had a little explore with Claire and Ryan for a few couples portraits, before it was time to enter the marquee for the wedding breakfast and speeches. After a set of brilliant speeches, it was party time. The band started playing and the dance floor swelled and the tone was set for the rest of the wedding. After sunset, a house DJ took to the decks and with some sparkly outfit changes, the night took a turn towards Ibiza and a great time was had by all.
