A Gorgeous DIY Garden Wedding

Capturing the Magic of a gorgeous DIY Garden Wedding with a Marquee: A Photographer’s Perspective

When it comes to weddings, nothing compares to the charm and personal touch of a gorgeous DIY garden wedding. Recently, I had the privilege of photographing a stunning celebration that combined the natural beauty of a family garden with the classic elegance of a marquee. This wedding was not just a visual feast but a day filled with love, joy, and vibrant colours—an unforgettable experience for everyone involved, including me as a photographer.

Why Choose a DIY Garden Wedding?

DIY weddings are becoming increasingly popular, and it’s easy to see why. A DIY garden wedding allows you to personalise every aspect of your special day, from the decor to the menu. The family garden isn’t just a venue; it’s a space filled with memories, making the event even more intimate and meaningful. A garden setting offers the perfect blend of nature and nostalgia, providing a beautiful backdrop for your celebration.

The Marquee: A Timeless and Elegant Addition

One of the standout features of this wedding was the elegant marquee. Unlike other outdoor structures, a marquee adds a touch of sophistication to the event. Its spacious and adaptable design creates a comfortable environment that’s perfect for both the ceremony and the reception. Whether you’re hosting a summer garden wedding or an autumn gathering, a marquee provides a versatile and stylish backdrop that’s sure to impress your guests.

Colorful and Fun: A Day to Remember

This particular wedding was a riot of color and fun, which made it an absolute joy to photograph. From the vibrant flowers to the quirky DIY decor, every detail was bursting with personality. The couple’s playful spirit was evident in every aspect of the day, from the bright, mismatched bridesmaid dresses to the DIY photo booth that kept guests entertained throughout the evening.

As a wedding photographer, capturing these unique and candid moments is what I live for. The couple’s decision to incorporate so much color into their wedding made for some truly spectacular photos. The marquee, adorned with fairy lights and bunting, looked magical as the sun set, creating a perfect backdrop for evening portraits.
