April brought a fresh breeze and a day full of joy at Bunny Hill Wedding Venue, where Kirsty and Greg celebrated their wedding. This was my first time at this charming venue, located conveniently close to home, and the experience was truly unforgettable. Despite the looming threat of Storm David, the weather held just long enough to capture stunning outdoor moments that perfectly framed the couple’s special day.

A venue that feels like home

Bunny Hill offers a beautiful setting with its open landscapes and picturesque areas for guests to relax, making it an ideal backdrop for weddings. The venue’s natural charm and well maintained grounds create a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere. Being local, I appreciated how accessible it was, which made the day feel even more personal.

The coordinators, Emma and Charlotte, played a huge role in making the day run smoothly. From the moment I arrived, their warm welcome and professionalism stood out. They were incredibly accommodating, answering questions and ensuring every detail was on point. By the end of the day, I felt like part of the team, which was a wonderful feeling for a new supplier at a venue.

Weather that played along

Storm David was predicted to bring heavy rain and strong winds, but the storm held off just enough to allow for plenty of outdoor photography and video opportunities. This timing was a blessing, as Kirsty and Greg’s wedding photos captured the natural beauty of Bunny Hill in full spring bloom. The soft light and fresh greenery added a magical touch to their video.

The personal touches that made the day special

One of the most touching details was the makeup being done by the bride’s sister, Rebecca Palfreman. This added a layer of intimacy and trust to the preparations. The styling by Limelight and the floral arrangements by Vix Wonderland Blooms complemented each other beautifully, creating a cohesive look that felt both fresh and timeless.

The entertainment choices were perfect for keeping guests engaged throughout the day. Russ’s magic tricks brought laughter and surprise, while Clark Howard’s band and DJ skills ensured the party never lost momentum. The lawn games provided a relaxed way for guests to mingle and enjoy the outdoor space.

Working with Emma and Charlotte

Emma and Charlotte’s coordination was a standout aspect of the day. Their ability to manage the schedule, handle last-minute changes, and keep everyone informed made the event flow effortlessly. Their welcoming attitude made me feel valued as a new supplier, which is not always the case at new venues.

Their teamwork ensured that even with the threat of bad weather, the day stayed on track. They were proactive in moving the timeline when necessary and communicated clearly with all vendors. This professionalism allowed everyone to focus on their roles and deliver their best work.

Capturing the day

Emma Glix’s photography captured the essence of Kirsty and Greg’s wedding perfectly. The outdoor shots, taken just before the storm arrived, show the couple surrounded by nature and loved ones. The images tell a story of joy, connection, and celebration.
