Betsie and Mark's wedding at the picturesque Wasing Park was a celebration of their love and journey together. From the stunning venue adorned with enchanting florals by Florescence to the soulful tunes of OJ's Soul Band, every detail contributed to the magic of their special day.

Their love story began during their university years, and on this day, they exchanged vows in a heartfelt ceremony held outdoors. Surrounded by loved ones, they created memories that would last a lifetime. A highlight of the day was Jack, a 10-year-old, captivating everyone's hearts with a touching reading.

Before the ceremony, the couple's preparations were filled with excitement. At The Smithy, Mark got ready while Betsie adorned her beautiful wedding dress, complemented by her own jewellery and a cherished charm necklace from her dad. The bridesmaids were adorned with lovely bracelets, and they all wore matching dressing gowns, creating a sense of togetherness.

As the guests arrived, Mark greeted them with warmth and anticipation. The main castle barn courtyard provided a perfect setting for pre-ceremony drinks, setting the tone for a joyous celebration. Betsie's dad had surprises planned throughout the day, adding an element of delight and love.

After the ceremony, confetti filled the air, and the celebrations continued with drinks and canapés. The couple took a moment for a special photoshoot, capturing the reactions of guests upon seeing caricatures as place settings during the wedding breakfast. Their entrance, announced by a charismatic 7-year-old, marked the beginning of an evening filled with heartfelt speeches. Betsie's father, Mark, and her brother Simon shared touching words, eliciting laughter and emotions from the crowd.

As the sun began to set, a scenic photoshoot took place, capturing the beauty of the bridesmaids, groomsmen, and the radiant couple against the backdrop of nature. At 8:15 PM, Betsie and Mark shared their first dance, surrounded by the love and support of their friends and family. The night was filled with the warmth of the setting sun, creating a magical atmosphere.

With the stunning lighting by Party Lights and a beautiful flower arch by Diamond Lush Events, Wasing Park was transformed into a dreamlike setting for Betsie and Mark's wedding. The day was a testament to their love, shared journey, and the joy they brought to everyone's lives.

May their marriage be filled with endless love, happiness, and new adventures. The memories created on their wedding day will forever be cherished, reminding them of the love and unity they celebrated at Wasing Park.
