Heavenly Hampshire Wedding
We asked our gorgeous bride Leona if she wouldn’t mind sharing a few images of her heavenly Hampshire wedding, and she really didn’t disappoint.
Leona & Matt first met just over eight years ago. He was playing for the local cricket team and she used to help out with the cricket teas with her Mum. One day, they were put together to help out with the cricket bbq and have been inseparable ever since. The proposal was literally her dream proposal and she had never told him! They were on holiday in Morocco and Matt had planned a sunrise hot air balloon trip and he popped the question then.
It took us quiet a while to find our venue, all we really wanted was somewhere we knew everyone would be able to relax and that there was plenty of space for us to host in different areas. I also loved that all our family and friends could stay there so it was just really closed off and personal to us. The venue blew my mind away on the day it generally couldn't have been more perfect.
Leona’s Top Tips
Although the planning maybe stressful try and enjoy every second of it and try and make it as fun as you can with your partner.
Don't ever doubt that what you have planned it not enough. It will be more than enough and as long as it is perfect for you and your partner that's all that matters.
Remember to take time out for yourself on the morning of your big day. It can all be a bit overwhelming so grab a cuppa and just take a moment!
“The part that I constantly thinking of is walking down the aisle. I couldn't wait to get to Matt I just wanted to run to him and tell him how much I love him.”
Leona loved every second of her time at Boo. “From trying on the dresses to the big day I just felt so supported by Emma. Boo Bridal is not just a wedding dress boutique you become part of a family and I am forever grateful of all of their skills and support.”
When we asked Leona, who was the most valuable person on the morning of her wedding - it was an easy response!
“My mum, she really helped me keep calm all morning.”
Leona’s Supplier list
All of Leona’s suppliers really exceeded her expectations, they were all fantastic in every way.
The Light Painters (photographers) - I found this amazing couple on Instagram. I really wanted a couple for our photographers so then Matt could get his photos when he got ready with his dad and brother. I think sometimes the groom can be forgotten with these elements.
Hair and make up - I found these amazing ladies on Instagram. They both are absolutely amazing at what they do and I loved spending my wedding morning with them.
Decor - again Instagram saved the day! @eliteevents_hire I can't recommend these guys enough so much effort and time was taken to listen so what we wanted and they more than delivered. The lovilest people as well!
