Fresh, fun and full of feeling in Buckinghamshire

As the bride and bridesmaids put the finishing touches to their outfits, guests arrived at the lakeside setting for the civil ceremony. The intimate, moving ceremony took place under a stunning Pavilion to the sight of gliding ducks, swishing willow trees and the smell of beautiful scented garlands of flowers.

Guests were treated to refreshing, (with a kick!), Mojitos, which signaled the start of a day with a difference.

A Cuban band set the laid back atmosphere throughout the drinks reception, and the wedding breakfast then offered a feast for the culinary senses - Cuban style complete with tapas selection, and casseroled curried kid.

The colour scheme was equally dramatic, unconventional but stunning; hot pink and lime green carried through from prom-style bridesmaids dresses to the vibrant flower palette, bridal favours and hand-made stunning table stationery.

The wedding cake took the shape of the pomegranate - a powerful symbol of meaning to the couple - and guests were invited to display their hand-written wish for the bride and groom on paper pomegranates tied to a tree. Personal, beautiful and unusual to the last.
