Gideon & Dara described their wedding as not really having a particular theme. What was important to them was that their wedding was full of love and that the whole day felt very personal.
The wedding was held at Preston Court in Kent (I love this venue, just check out the reception room with the carousel wall!) which the couple decorated with all manner of things which they had collected themselves. These included paper place mats from Anthropologie, table numbers from Dear Emma Stationary, pom poms from Paper Pom Poms, Mustaches and Lips on Sticks from Mister Mustache and many other props from Amazon and various fancy dress stores.
Thank you so much to Gideon & Dara and their photographer Eliza for sharing.

Just beautiful. I love the bride’s dress and veil. She makes me wish I could carry off red lippy!! Looks like a lovely relaxed wedding 🙂 the cake is so cute too 🙂
I am getting married here next year and am another bride with no particular “theme” or colour scheme. I like the idea of just having lots of things that you have collected and things that you like, whether they match or not! Makes a wedding that bit more personal.

Gorgeous wedding, I think Preston Court may be my favourite venue ever!!
When I saw the preview of this wedding on Eliza’s blog, I couldn’t wait to see the rest. Preston Court is such a stunning venue and was very nearly the venue for our own wedding next April. Simply gorgeous!!
What a visual feast!!! The venue looks MAGIC! and the bride absolutely STUNNING!!!!!!
ok, seriously, how pretty is this?!!!
I just fell in love her venue. I really want to get married there next year, but how easy is it to get to from London when absolutely none of us drive?!?
