Striking white florals and natural foliage lined the grand stair case with beautiful views of the parkland. A delicate violin rendition was played while Gillian and her father walked down the aisle to meet Daniel.

Once the newlyweds had made their vows, they were welcomed down the Castle stairs with a sprinkle of magical confetti thrown by their guests.

Dinner & Evening Reception

The wedding party were called to dinner in the State Drawing Room before speeches commenced. Following the wedding breakfast, a cocktail hour began with a selection of tipples served to get the party started.

The celebrations continued in the vaulted cellars and castle’s courtyard, covered with a clear span marquee. The band had everyone on the dance floor all night long and wood fired pizzas and charcuterie platters were served later in the evening.

The day drew to a close with a fabulous sparkler exit as a final flare to an unforgettable celebration.
