Dorset's Secret Wedding Venue...

...Edmondsham House!

There are only three words that really describe this stunning stately wedding venue and that is...

...A Hidden Gem!

This beautiful outdoor wedding venue can be found in Edmondsham, near Cranborne in Dorset and trust me...

...you won’t be disappointed!

Edmondsham House is owned by a very lovely lady called Julia Smith who is extremely welcoming when you visit her home and grounds. Julia is full of knowledge when it comes to the history of her Tudor Manor Home, as well as the plants and trees you will find around her grounds.

If you are looking to have a marquee wedding then this outdoor venue is the perfect location. On the east side of the house is a perfectly maintained lawn which has the most magnificent old cedar tree to one end.

This venue offers an overwhelming feeling of peace and tranquillity, as wherever you look you will be spoilt by its beauty...

...isn’t that the feeling you want to feel when choosing your perfect wedding venue?

Within the grounds of Edmondsham House is the quaint St.Nicholas’ church where you can legally get married if you so wish. How many wedding venues do you know where you can have a traditional and legal church wedding across the path from where you will hold your wedding reception?

Not many I can tell you!

To the side of the house you will find a walled flower garden which is the perfect spot to capture some beautiful images once you are married. Behind the gardens wrought iron gates you can walk around the gravel paths through an array of different flowers, plants and foliage, not forgetting the fruit trees and kitchen garden.

This stunning house and gardens has everything to offer to anyone looking for that WOW factor wedding venue.

Not only that but you can style your chosen marquee as you wish and choose the wedding suppliers you would like to book. Julia is a strong believer in giving her couples the flexibility to choose their own wedding suppliers rather than restricting them to a preferred supplier list. In doing this Julia feels she is helping her couples to have the wedding they have been dreaming of, as well as helping them to keep within their own personal wedding budgets.

You couldn’t ask for much more!

If you love a hidden gem I cannot recommend this wedding venue highly enough!

Your DIY wedding planning journey can be hard work with a lot to think about and organise.

In my opinion a DIY wedding is the perfect type of wedding as you can put your stamp on it and make it your own. Natalie and Jake had planned the most stunning DIY wedding at Bake Barn in Wiltshire and needed help with co-ordination on the day. Taking my team we made sure their day ran smoothly and to their time-plan doing all the jobs that needed doing. This meant they could enjoy every minute of their day with their friends and family - stress free!

Planning a DIY wedding is always so much fun but on the day there are so many jobs that need doing. Bex and Graham planned a beautiful and relaxed wedding at Warborne Farm in Lymington, Hampshire where the Tasha Mae team were able to help ensure all the jobs were done and their day ran smoothly so they didn't need to worry about a thing!

You have to love a marquee wedding in a field overlooking the sea, which is exactly what Keely and Dan planned for their big day. The Tasha Mae team loved co-ordinating their special DIY day and despite the strong winds and rain we all had a fabulous time ensuring everything ran like clockwork.

Winter weddings can be just as beautiful as summer weddings and after co-ordinating Jake and Laura's big day in December, I can most certainly vouch for that! You don't need to think of a theme with a twinkling Christmas tree, roaring fire and mince pies as canapes, what more could you ask for? Not only that but you don't need to worry about the weather as you've already planned it for the winter so you know what to aim for!

The beauty of planning your own DIY wedding is you can do exactly as you wish and after co-ordinating Cassie and Oliver's, I have to say there is something to be said for having your wedding at home in your back garden. With a relaxed, almost zen vibe, Cassie and Oliver had the most beautiful chilled out wedding day in the comfort of their family home and garden.

Deciding on your wedding decor is the fun part but on the day you might need some help putting everything in place whilst you get ready to tie the knot. Rachel and Ben had planned a DIY marquee wedding and needed some help in the morning of their big day to make sure their venue looked pretty and just as they wanted before everyone arrived.

As an on the day wedding co-ordinator so many of the weddings I co-ordinate are in the summer, which means the majority of my imagery are of bright sunny weddings. For that reason, I thought it was about time I showed everyone that winter weddings can be just as beautiful and somewhat mystical!
