Lily and Dean's Wild Woodland Wedding

The location

Nestled in the East Sussex countryside, Lily and Dean found the perfect spot for their wild, woodland wedding. Cinderford Farm has only done a handful of weddings, but it truly is a beautiful location.

A wide open field leads down into the woodland where Lily and Dean’s friends and family created the most epic archway just the day before the wedding.

The surroundings of the location were truly embraced, from the wooden arch, to the natural grasses and sheepskin rugs.

The set up

It had to be a tipi for this wedding and Tribecca Tipis provided a great set up. The grasses and luxurious rugs were carried through to the reception with twinkling lights adding to the wild, woodland feel.

Lily and Dean’s wedding was everything I love about outdoor weddings tipi weddings. It was relaxed and fun because they definitely did it their way.

They had amazing grazing boards for their guests to enjoy courtesy of Harold’s Hog and created games to keep them entertained.

Even though the British weather went from boiling hot to ridiculous winds, nothing could stop these guys from partying and boy, they can definitely party!

“An absolute gem”

Clair is absolutely incredible!! We hired her for on the day coordination, which meant she took over the communication with suppliers a couple of months before, many things went wrong with other suppliers but Clair sorted them straight away, which helped ease my wedding anxiety! On the day Clair helped all day, completely went above and beyond to make our wild woodland wedding run as smoothly as it possibly could, especially with the challenging British weather. I could not recommend her enough, an absolute gem. Xx
