Real Weddings from Your Herts and Beds Wedding

Love at first site

Twelve years after Kim first spotted Dan at the gym, a chance introduction by a mutual friend changed both of their lives.

A roarsome romance

Andy and Jolene met aged 18 during a night out with mutual friends. Their connection started as a friendship, before six years later falling in love. The proposal came out of the blue on the couple's 12th anniversary, with Andy popping the question in Bruges.

A love that felt like home

Michelle and Joseph's story began in an unexpected setting – a photoshoot where Joseph was the up-and-coming photographer and Michelle the biker influencer in front of the camera. What started with a shared Subway in a van quickly grew into a connection that felt effortless and real.

Written in the stars

Billy and Steph's story began at school, where they were in the same year but never truly crossed paths. It wasn't until later, through mutual friends, that their connection began to grow.

From school friends to soulmates

These lovebirds first met in high school, never sharing classes but often crossing paths between lessons and through mutual friends.

Rustic romance

Taylor was working in Cyprus when she met Ellie, who was on holiday and had just lost her shoe. Afterwards, they got chatting and instantly made a connection. Taylor comments,
"When we left the bar, I realised we hadn't exchanged contact details, so I trawled through Facebook trying to find Ellie among around 75,000 people. Eventually, I found her, added her, sent her a message, and we stayed up until 4 am messaging.

True love

Our ceremony occurred in the beautiful Summer House in the gardens. We had our reception in the Tudor Barn and then danced in the Horse Barn, which is absolutely amazing! We used the Old Dairy for our guestbook area and for displaying photos of our loved ones who are no longer with us. It was a beautiful day, so our guests were lucky enough to explore the stunning gardens and make the most of the grounds.

After All This Time... Always

These two lovebirds met when we were 19 through mutual friends! They got on straight away and were great friends from the word go.

They fell in love while looking around the spaces and decided to go for it and get married! Coming home having booked a wedding venue was a surprise for them both. The bride's engagement ring was her mother's, which is extremely special as she died when Elizabeth was only 10. So, this detail meant the world to Elizabeth.

Timeless Elegance

Jade and James had crossed paths as teenagers through mutual friends, but it wasn't until years later that they matched on Tinder. Despite the time apart, the early stages of their relationship felt incredibly natural; they weren't strangers at all. At that time, both were working unsociable hours, which made it challenging to see each other as often as they'd have liked. However, this only meant they cherished the quality moments they did have together even more. James always made Jade feel like a priority, making her realise he was the one for her.
