How did you find and choose your wedding venue, Brookfield Barn, West Sussex? 

- Browsing online, we knew we wanted a barn venue so went and looked at a few, Brookfield Barn stood out to us the most, it was local for family and friends to get there and actually had a meaning to us which was so nice to incorporate into the day.


Tell us about your wedding dress; the designer, how long it took you to find the one featured in your wedding video at Brookfield Barn, West Sussex?

My wedding dress was basically found a year before the wedding, unexpectedly. I went out with just my mum and we said I’d try some for fun and to see what I liked, my dress was the third dress I tried, and I fell in love. After plenty of crying from my mum (and me), I knew I’d marry Joel in that dress and that it was the one.


Tell us about what the Groomsmen wore featured in your wedding video at Brookfield Barn, West Sussex?


The groomsmen wore grey suits, Joel had a different waistcoat having a slight purple check to it and a different buttonhole to the other guys.


Was there any surprises featured in your wedding video at Brookfield Barn, West Sussex? Tell us more..

Joel surprised me a lot on the day, he ended up buying me a perfume from Jo Malone that I could wear on the day which the scent now reminds me of our wedding day. He also got me my own private number plate which is something that runs in the family and had my new initials on.              


We also surprised our family and friends by announcing that we were expecting our first baby together. Something we’ll both never forget.


Did you have any readings and if so, why did you pick them?

We did have readings but actually chose to have our family pick them, we wanted them to pick something that meant something to them and that felt meant something to us. It made those readings more meaningful to us.

We both loved the style and way you shot your videos and it was an instant and very easy, yes!! The experience  was great and easy, almost like you weren’t even there!
