A Yellow Hillman Imp For A Funfilled Vintage Inspired DIY Wedding in Rural Suffolk

I have a feeling you're going to super super love this afternoon's feature.  This is the wedding of Rory and Emma who tied the knot in Spring this year in a top-secret location, after their wedding ceremony that was held at All Saints Church in Suffolk, England.

I love this wedding for all it's jollity, smiles and that fabulous little Hillman Imp called Laa Laa!

Emma's dress was a bespoke design, especially made by the groom's sister. She also wore a
vintage inspired veil, crafted by her mum. What an amazing creative family!

Huge thanks to Kerry James Photography for making our day by sending in these lovely lovely photographs.

Words of Wedded Wisdom…

"My advice would be make lists of all the things to complete each week leading up to the wedding.

I loved how much of our wedding I had done myself and how much the family was involved as well so organize and make as much of it yourselves as you can. your guests really notice the personal touches.

The whole day was just amazing and exactly how I wanted it. I really did get my perfect wedding."
