Lauren and Charlie's wedding day was a perfect blend of tradition and adventure, reflecting their deep love for each other and their shared passion for the outdoors. The day began with a beautiful church ceremony just after midday, followed by a romantic horse and carriage ride to the stunning Kentfield Estate, where the celebrations continued in a way that was uniquely them.
From the moment the dress was on there were definite princess vibes being felt by everyone, including onlookers in town as Lauren got into her horse and carriage in West Malling.
The ceremony was heartfelt and personal, with every moment filled with emotion. The sound of the bellringers filled the air as they walked back down the aisle, marking the beginning of their new life together. Locals from the church's town had actually gathered outside to see the awaited horse and carriage, the talk of the town leading up to this big day!
After the ceremony, Lauren and Charlie made their way to the reception venue in true fairytale fashion—a horse and carriage awaited them outside the church. The sight of the couple, beaming with joy as they waved to well-wishers from the elegant carriage, was nothing short of magical. The journey to Kentfield Estate took them through winding country lanes, with the rolling hills and lush green fields providing a picturesque backdrop.
Arriving at Kentfield Estate, the couple was greeted by the breathtaking beauty of the venue. The estate, with its expansive grounds and natural beauty, was the ideal location for a couple who loved the outdoors. Guests were welcomed with refreshments before being invited to partake in an exciting activity that Lauren and Charlie had specially arranged—clay shooting. It was a fun and exhilarating way to kick off the reception, with guests of all ages taking part and cheering each other on.
As evening approached, the celebration continued in a beautifully decorated marquee where the couple's love of nature was evident in every detail. The rustic, farm-to-table dinner featured a menu centered around cooked game, offering guests a taste of the countryside. The meal, enjoyed in the warm glow of candlelight and surrounded by the fresh scents of herbs and wildflowers, was a true reflection of Lauren and Charlie's shared love for all things natural and authentic.
The highlight of the evening came with Lauren and Charlie’s first dance. As they stepped onto the dance floor, a light drizzle began to fall. But instead of moving indoors, the couple embraced the moment, dancing in the rain with smiles that lit up the evening. Their joy was contagious, and the sight of them twirling together in the rain was nothing short of enchanting. And to top it all off, the most beautiful rainbow was cast over the venue to wrap up the evening.
