Pretty DIY Seaside Wedding in Studland Dorset | Whimsical Wonderland Weddings

Good morning WWWers, and a happy Monday to you. To start the week with a bang I have a gorgeous WWW reader wedding set beside the seaside to share with you.

WWW readers Tom and Emma married in July of last year, in beautiful Dorset. They chose Harry Warren House to host their marquee reception with stunning sea views. They wanted a home made feel to their day creating fun décor themselves such as the light up letters and home made Raspberry Liqueur favours.

Emma looked so lovely in her romantic dress with natural hair and Jimmy Choo shoes, while her bridesmaids wore mismatch peach dresses. Tom wore a sharp suit with tan shoes and blue tie. So so much style. Ekk.

Thanks so much to the wonderful Big Bouquet Photography for sharing their imagery with us today.

had a DIY wedding by the seaside which we wanted to be all about fun and about what we loved (e.g. cream teas!) and what we thought our guests would enjoy! We were keen for it to be relaxed and home made.

We had our ceremony and reception in Studland, Dorset on July 27th 2013. I got ready with my bridesmaids and my Mum at The Haven Hotel in Sandbanks. Tara Sanger did an amazing job on our make up. Despite the forecast being heavy rain all day long, the sun shone all morning, which meant the roof was down on the lovely morris minor I had. We had to travel on the car ferry to reach Studland where they made an announcement to the ferry that we were on board and I was off to get married! Amazing!

We had our ceremony at St Nicholas' Church in Studland Village and then we all walked to our reception, down the lane at Harry Warren House. It is an amazing venue which as soon as we visited we knew it was the one for us. We had a gorgeous marquee in the grounds, which Tom, me and lots of our family spent decorating the three days before. We had our drinks reception overlooking the sea and also played lawn games which were lots of fun. Soon after sitting down to our cream teas, the thunderstorm arrived and the rain poured all afternoon and evening, which meant for more dancing, eating and drinking in our lovely marquee! We had created our bar from local Studland Brewery beers to our home made cocktails. Most of our cake table consisted of homemade cakes made my sister and my Grandma. Our guest book merged with our photo booth, encouraging guests to stick in a copy of their photos to help us remember the day.

We had fish and chips for tea and The Daggers (an amazing band who we recommend to everyone) played for the evening.

Hymns: Jerusalem, All Things Bright and Beautiful and Lord of All Hopefulness.
