How We Met

I met James through a mutual friend nearly four years ago, before going on a night out to none other than Ministry of Sound, we really hit it off and have been inseparable ever since.

Marrying my best friend

We can both admit that we aren’t the most conventional of couples, and didn’t really go on dates. We saw each other socially as we share a lot of mutual friends, we drew closer and the rest is history! I can really say that I am marrying my best friend.

A Summery Jewish Wedding with Lots of DIY Touches at South Hampstead Shul, London, UK

by

Eloise and Eytan, South Hampstead Shul, London, UK

We love it when a couple brings their personalities to their Jewish wedding – which is exactly what Londoners Eloise and Eytan did! Both arts and crafts fans, the pair opted to design all of the wedding stationery themselves, from the invitations and seating chart to thank you cards and place names.

The couple’s photographer, Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Kate Swerdlow Photography, “captured every moment in just the right way and made us feel comfortable from the beginning of the process which started with our engagement shoot and gave us constant updates whilst editing our photos.”

We also love that Eloise and Eytan chose Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Noa Davies, a mega-talented harpist, to play at their wedding – first accompanying their band Neshama, and then as a duet with violinist Miriam Kramer during the reception.

Read on for all the other details of this very special day – including a live wedding painter and an adorable wedding post box decorated by the bride and groom!

A Vera Wang Bride for an English Countryside Jewish Wedding at Cornwell Manor, The Cotswolds, UK

by

Shayna-and-Marc-Cornwell-Manor-Cotswolds-UK

If you’re dreaming of an English countryside wedding, it doesn’t get any better than this! Shayna, who works in ecommerce, and Marc, a trader at a bank, live in the US, but given that Marc is from London a destination wedding in England was a natural choice.

And who wouldn’t want to make things official in the beautiful Cotswolds – especially at a venue as stunning as Cornwell Manor? A venue this gorgeous doesn’t need much in the way of décor – and indeed, Shayna and Marc picked a color palette of pale blue with hints of lavender and neutrals (and lots of greenery, put to excellent use in the pair’s glorious chuppah) to complement the beauty of the English countryside rather than distracting from it. Don’t miss all the exquisite details in the dreamy photos by Abul and video by Jake Burgess!

There’s so much more to say about this very special Jewish wedding, but we’ll hand you over to the bride – who looked so elegant in Vera Wang – for the rest…

A Sincerity Bride for a Jewish Wedding with a Fabulous Floral Chuppah at the Midland Hotel, Manchester, UK

by

Stacey-Anthony-The-Midland-Hotel-Manchester-UK

Get ready to be blown away by today’s FABULOUS floral chuppah! Our Brides Club member Stacey, a Senior Executive Assistant, and Anthony, a Managing Director, opted to make trees the focal point of their Manchester Jewish wedding aesthetic, and we are absolutely obsessed with their tree chuppah! Get ready to be wowed when you scroll through the fantastic photos by Rob Clayton.

We’re equally in love with the amazing kosher catering by Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Feast by Ed. In Stacey’s words, the food was “unreal” from start to finish, with guests raving about how delicious it all was – and to cap things off, Feast by Ed served up a chocolate tree for dessert to match the décor – how amazing is that?!

We loved having Stacey in our Brides Club, and we’re so pleased to hear she not only found the group incredibly helpful for advice and support but also used an exclusive Brides Club discount code for her gorgeous wedding kippot!

We’ll let Stacey tell you the rest of the story in her own words…

A Mira Zwillinger Bride for a Romantic Jewish Wedding Weekend at the Fairmont Hotel, Windsor, UK

by

Ellie-Nick-Fairmont-Windsor-UK

If you love a good floral chuppah, have we got a treat for you! Today’s couple, Ellie, a fashion stylist and interior designer, and Nick, a property investor, knew they wanted their chuppah to make a statement – and does it ever! Covered in the bride’s favorite flower, gypsophila, it’s serious #chuppahgoals.

Given Ellie’s design background, it’s no surprise she had a strong vision for not only the chuppah, but the whole aesthetic of the day: a white and neutral color scheme, with lots of candles and white flowers to create a mystical and romantic fairytale theme. And it goes without saying that the bride opted for a super-stylish gown, from Israeli designer Mira Zwillinger.

But there was so much more than looks to this wonderful Jewish wedding – it was also an epic party, thanks to Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Sensation Band who got everyone dancing with the perfect mix of current music and wedding classics.

Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Denee Motion filmed the day beautifully, capturing every moment and editing the highlight reel to perfection – and James Mason is behind Ellie and Nick’s most wonderful photos.  

And we love that the duo opted to set up their Jewish wedding gift list with Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor The Wedding Shop – nor are we in the least surprised to hear that Ellie and Nick were thrilled with their experience!

There’s so much more to say about this fabulous wedding – read on for all the details in the bride’s own words!
