Tilly and Reece

micro wedding

Tilly and Reece chose to have a midweek micro wedding reception at Pauntley Court last September.
 

After their wedding in Tilly’s parish church, the happy couple were greeted with a glass of bubbles before moving through into the gorgeous gardens at Pauntley Court.

Drinks and canapés were enjoyed by all the guests as they chatted and laughed together under our ‘Tentickle’ stretch tent within the hornbeam arches on the first lawn. The sun was shining, and everyone was relaxed and happy, with time to reflect on the beautiful church service, and excited to move into the house to enjoy the next part of the big day!

Tilly and Reece had a chance to wander off with their photographer Lee Hawley through the magical garden rooms and into the sunken garden.

Everyone was breathing in the magical atmosphere and the glorious far-reaching views across the Gloucestershire countryside.

Guests were then asked to move into the house for the wonderful wedding breakfast by Charlotte Gardner catering. Tilly’s mother and family had decorated the long trestle tables the day before and personalised the table plan, just as they wished it to look.

The Ballroom was filled with joy and much laughter and everyone had a chance to talk and enjoy the personal and intimate atmosphere. The wedding cake looked beautiful on the grand piano.

When the guests left at the end of the day Tilly and Reece retired to the romantic and cosy bridal suite, Elinor Fettiplace, time to reflect and reminisce on their beautiful wedding day.
 

"The house and grounds were pristine and we couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful venue for our reception!" - Tilly, Bride, 2020

The September sun shone and the venue was transformed into a scene of pure romance.  We got to eat under the hornbeam trees and just as we had envisioned and our guests were truly impressed. The seamless coordination by the staff ensured that everything ran like clockwork, allowing us to relax and fully immerse ourselves in the joy of the moment. The team's dedication to making our day special was evident in every aspect, and their positive energy added an extra layer of happiness to the celebration.

 

The beauty of Pauntley Court is not just in its physical surroundings but in the people who make it come alive. The venue and its team contributed significantly to the success of our wedding day, creating memories that will be cherished for a lifetime.
