Many congratulations to the gorgeous Elle and Ben who enjoyed three days of celebrations when they got married at Ash Barton last August.

“We couldn’t have wished for a more incredible weekend and will spend the rest of our lives reliving it!"

Friday night catering: Il Cornicione Pizza

"They were wonderful and all our guests raved about how delicious the food was! They also let us choose a bride and groom pizza to put on a blackboard as a choice for our guests." 

Friday night entertainment: Pantasy Steelband

"This was a fabulous way to start the weekend. They got everyone dancing and excited for the magical weekend ahead! It felt like we were on holiday in the Caribbean."

Hair: Kyrelle at Devon Wedding Hair

"Kyrelle is genuinely the most talented hairdresser around. She created such beautiful looks for all my bridesmaids in no time at all and they all loved their hair. As for mine, I felt like a complete princess, as someone who does nothing with my hair (I rarely even have it up!) I was so nervous to have my hair done but Kyrelle made it look so natural and pretty I couldn’t have been happier."  

Make up: Katharine Shaw

"Katharine did such an incredible job at making sure I looked natural. Again I don’t wear much make up so was very nervous to have it done. Right from my trial she put me at ease and made sure all the tiny details were perfect."

Flowers: Twigs Flowers

"We had Twigs recommended to us and they didn’t disappoint! They spent so much time making sure every detail was perfect and made our vision come to life - thank you! Wish I could keep my flowers forever I loved them so much."

Photographer/Videographer: Yeah Mike 

"Words could never describe just how incredible Mike is. It really felt like we had a friend capturing our day for us. Mike made us feel so relaxed and is so unbelievably talented with his work. We even went for a sunrise photoshoot on the beach in the days after and we will cherish the photos and memories forever. If you’re looking for someone to capture your wedding in literally the most magical way Mike is your guy!"  

Celebrant: Jessica Sey at Pomp and Ceremonies

"Jess spent so much time with us making sure she captured every aspect of our relationship. Yhe ceremony she put together was so beautiful - there wasn’t a dry eye among our 100 guests. They all said it was the loveliest ceremony they had been to, and so personal and thoughtful."

Tents: Devon Belles

"We had 65 guests staying in luxury teepees and they were genuinely amazing! We had a mixture of real beds and air beds and all our guests said they slept well. Devon Belles went above and beyond to made sure everything came together perfectly and the team putting them up were so fun and friendly and made sure the village was laid out exactly as we wanted. They really were fantastic."

Wedding co-ordination: Katie and Emily at Best Day Ever

"They really are the dream team! Thank you for making everything run so smoothly and paying such close attention to detail in bringing our dream to life. All our guests said how lovely and attentive the team were and we felt so looked after, nothing was too much trouble and we are so thankful we had you guys on hand to sort everything out (especially the clean up the next day!). Katie you really are a wedding fairy godmother, from dealing with our suppliers to making sure everything ran on time - we were so grateful of your help!"

Furniture hire: South West Events

"We hired fridges, freezers, chairs, glasses and ovens etc. from here and they were great, clear communication and helpful driver for drop off / collection. The chairs and glasses (you send them back dirty!) were chosen to add a touch of extra detail which we loved and helped to create the look we wanted for our ceremony."

Evening meal: Jax Cakes N Bakes  

"Jax was so brilliant from start to finish. We went for an Italian themed meal as that’s our favourite food. The options were great and the food itself was so delicious, all our guests raved about how tasty it all was! We’re still dreaming of your carbonara and lasagne."

Band: Charlie and the Funk Factory

"Wow! We had the band do so many different sets throughout the day, from the acoustic trio for the drinks reception, to the jazz band whilst we ate, the epic party band dancing the night away! And then the DJ and sax set to finish! You guys were absolutely unbelievable, and we already have friends wanting to book you for their weddings! Just amazing!"

Fireworks: Sonic Fireworks

"The display the team put on was honestly world class. It was so so magical to watch the fireworks  with all our guests and just a surreal moment! Communication was also great and it was so reassuring to know they have done Ash Barton many times."

"Henry and Steve made our weekend truly incredible. Henry is one of the kindest and most down to earth people you could meet, and he made us so relaxed from the moment we arrived! Thank you to Simon too for always being on hand to answer questions and queries - we love the Ash Barton team!"
