Delicate Daisies & Playful Bows: A Whimsical Summer Cotswold Wedding at Lapstone Barn

Set in the heart of the Cotswolds, Lapstone Barn with its rustic charm, light-filled interiors, and picturesque countryside surroundings was the perfect setting for a summer celebration full of joy & romance.

A Summer Wedding Full of Joy

Gemma & Craig’s wedding was a celebration of love, laughter, and the simple beauty of summer. With delicate daisies, playful bows, soft romantic florals, and thoughtfully curated details, the day perfectly captured the charm and magic of a Cotswolds country wedding.

The Bridal Party

Gemma looked stunning in her sequinned Anya Bridal Couture gown with her romantic bouquet of soft chiffon petaled blush and ivory roses, spray roses, Dahlia and dancing daisies. Trailing ivory satin ribbons on both sides gave the bouquet a stylish boho vibe.

The bridesmaids wore soft, blush, floaty dresses, which paired perfectly with the soft colour palette of the day. Each carried a smaller posy bouquet of matching blooms from Gemma’s romantic bouquet, finished with flowing champagne ribbons to echo the playful, summery theme.

Craig and his groomsmen looked refined in navy suits, wore boutonnières reflecting the soft palette, tying the bridal party styling together with style and charm.

Ceremony – Romantic Meadow Florals

Guests arrived to be greeted by a pretty Welcome board with its giant ivory Satin Bow and meadow flowers sitting beneath it. This led to the beautiful Snug, where a country stone urn overflowed with romantic flowers to set the scene. Flowers included tall white Delphiniums, spray roses, garden roses in blush, cream, and buttery yellow tones. Summer Dahlias, Daisies and Sweet Peas created a relaxed yet elegant countryside atmosphere.

To continue the daisy and bow charm of the day delightful meadow flower designs dressed the top of the aisle with ivory satin bows tied on chairs.

Taller meadow-style arrangements graced the front of their ceremonial table, immersing Gemma & Craig in a blooming English meadow for the ceremony. The delicate layering, natural textures, and playful daisy accents created a joyful atmosphere for all in attendance.

Reception Styling — Whimsical Summer Elegance

The celebration continued for their reception enjoying long banqueting trestle tables styled in harmony with the day’s palette. Vintage gold urns and pretty glass bud vases overflowed with soft blooms along each tablescape.

We used elegant matt gold candlesticks which we tied with a variation of pretty neutral bows. Gemma had collected a delightful assortment of champagne coupe glasses, which were tied with bows in the same muted tones for each guest to enjoy. Every detail reflected Gemma & Craig’s vision for a joyful, summery celebration, creating a cohesive, playful, and romantic atmosphere.
