Jayne & Clive, 24th September 2010

I was looking forward to doing this wedding so much, and I wasn't disappointed. Jayne and Clive married at Chatsworth yesterday. After a dodgy start weatherwise, it turned into a lovely autumnal day - and Jayne arrived in her horse drawn carriage in the late afternoon sun. She looked absolutely radiant! The flowers at this wedding were outrageously beautiful - lilies, roses, freeshias all over the place! In just about anywhere fit to put a flower, there was one. It looked so sumptuous and smelt divine!
Mrs Chair Back Sash here was in her element.  My trusty team of three (thanks so much to Rachel and Sonia!) fitted sashes to the 90 chairs in the Hartington Room for the ceremony. I was soooo pleased with the result. White on white is truly elegant; it looked so crisp and perfect.  After the ceremony, all the sashes were moved into the Carriage House restaraunt.  The pressure was on! An hour and a half to move them and get them looking perfect again - but we did it in plenty of time and even managed to chill for a while and watch the choir prepare (Kinder Children's High Peak Choir - what a professional little outfit they are!)
I have to say, the restaurant looked tremendous by the time it was complete. Professional photos will appear on my blog in due course. In the mean time, you'll have to make do with these!










So many thanks to Jayne and Clive for allowing me to be part of their day, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Watch this space for Jo and Simon's photographic interpretation - it will make my attempt look quite pathetic! Jo and Simon's work (Shoot Lifestyle Photography) is amazing.

    It's taken Clive and I a few days to come down to earth but I have to tell you that Julia is the ultimate perfectonist. I thought I paid attention to detail but this girl is tops.
    Julia knew what we were trying to achieve and she surpassed our expectations. It wasn't just what we saw on the day but her care and concern in the planning meetings and pre-wedding communications - my Sister also overheard her on the day when she showed so much concern about the slightest crease or misalignment.
    We'd so very highly recommend Julia - just look at that high chair!!
    Thank You so much. Jayne and Clive
