Newly married couple at Houchins in Essex. They are walking along a muddy lane covered with autumnal leaves. The bride is holding up her Jenny Packham dress, May JPB762, to reveal her Hunter wellies.

An Autumnal Houchins Wedding for Abbie-Louise & Matthew

The last Saturday of October, almost November, and it was an unseasonably warm day at Houchins for Abbie-Louise and Matthew’s wedding.
In fact I have checked the nearest weather station in Coggeshall and it reached 21.5°C that day, which is my favourite temperature for a wedding. It’s just right.

And the autumnal sunlight is just beautiful, golden and gentle. Which perfectly suited this lovely couple, just so happy and welcoming. A day full of smiles, family (including Louis of course), dancing to ABBA, and pumpkins.

Dog – Louis the springer spaniel
Dress – Jenny Packham from House of Snow
Graze table – The Party Kitchen
Wedding Breakfast – Limeberry Catering
Pizza – Cha Cha Pizza Co.
Music – Three Mile Hill
