Fasque House Estate, Fettercairn
Why
did you choose your venue?
It is a luxury, exclusive use property and we loved
the stunning internal décor and beautiful grounds
Did
you have a “theme”?
Black and white “damasq” theme
Why
did you choose Simply Bows and Chair Covers and what were they like to work
with?
They were the recommended supplier from Fasque and I loved the perfectly
matching damasq chair covers

length fitted dress from Louise Lantano in Invererie

Sam Brill
What
“special touches” did you add to your day?
We had mini ushers (our three
nephews aged 2, 3 and 4) in little kilts present us with horseshoes after the
wedding ceremony. I hand made all the
wedding stationery (order of service, table plan, place cards and menus) and
had damasq bags with mini perfumes/aftershaves for favours. Instead of flower centrepieces, we had tall
birch branches in black square vases with mini stag heads and flower test
tubes.
What
was your favourite part of the day?
The
wedding ceremony and of course the dancing!
Where
did you go on honeymoon?
We went to St. Lucia for two weeks. Jade Mountain Resort. It was AMAZING!
What would be your
top tip for another bride to be?
Doing things yourself, like stationery, adds a
real personal touch, but doesn’t necessarily save you any money in doing it!
