Real Bride - Verity & Sam

The Ivory Room bride Verity married Sam at the rustic and family owned Foxtail Barns in Staffordshire. Verity looked beautiful in her Essense Of Australiagown. She was inspired by Megan Markle’s elegant style mixed with the show stopping Bond girl look, I think she achieved this perfectly! Here is their story…..

THE PROPOSAL

During C-19 Sam and I had a dining room picnic as we were unable to go out. Whilst mid way through a sandwich, I turned around to see Sam in one knee. I was in such shock that I’m still not sure I said yes!

THE WEDDING DRESS

I knew that I wanted a classic style with a modern twist. Before arriving to meet Victoria, I had tried on a few Lacy numbers but these really didn’t suit me. The Ivory Room had such a diverse range of dresses that there were several to choose from which matched what I was after.

THE WEDDING

Colour theme was Navy and Silver and there were subtle hints of this throughout the day. My bouquet was a classic white. Our name cards for the seating plan were pictures of either Sam or I with the guest. This made an awesome discussion point for our guests who were then showing each other and explaining where the picture was from. It was a great icebreaker.

My favourite moment was the walk back to our wedding night lodge with my husband and we discussed the events of the day. They has beautiful fairy lights in the trees and we walked hand in hand to bed. My face was hurting for days afterwards because of how much I was smiling. I loved how joyful the day was and how much happiness we were surrounded by.
