Imposing Peaks 🔼

Today we’re celebrating the impressive magnificence of the Nordic tipi. These beautiful structures aren’t chosen as often as some other marquee options, but when they are, it’s always a delight to see these giant hats standing proud at The Lakeside.

With their wide open fronts, tipis are perfect for creating that seamless indoor–outdoor flow that so many couples want for an outdoor wedding. Their height also makes them ideal for dramatic styling - tassels, draping, suspended disco balls and more.

A&N used one tipi for dining and another for drinking and dancing, giving each space its own individual character through immersive styling. They really are the perfect choice for fun, relaxed and truly personal weddings. And if you’re dreaming of a festival-style vibe, they’re the ideal option for that party aesthetic.

Sadly, we don’t have any tipis gracing our fields this year, but we’ll be keeping our fingers crossed they make a return for some of our big days in 2027.

If you’re manifesting a tipi wedding and looking for a glorious space to host it, the good news is that we still have various dates available for next year. Pop us a DM to check your date availability and arrange a visit to see our wonderful space.

Rain Happens ☂️

With all the rain we’ve had in February our silver lining hope is that we’re ’getting it out of the way’ in advance of a warm and sunny summer. But let’s be honest, the one thing we can never guarantee is the weather. Whilst we’ve not had many rainy days here at The Lakeside, it does happen.

However. Please hear us when we say - it absolutely won’t ruin your wedding day. We can help you plan wet weather options, from stretch tents to umbrellas, and we alway closely monitor detailed weather forecasts in advance of our big days so we can make proactive plans with our couples. But typically, during the late spring & summer months, rain is just a short shower or two. Pop open those brollies or head under shelter, let it pass, and then you and your guests will soon be outside again.

Have a scroll through some of the moments from L&B’s big day - our very first wedding! - and see how this couple beautifully embraced some rain.

Statement Signage & Stylish Stationery

Stationery and signage are such simple yet effective ways to personalise your wedding day. We love seeing the creative touches our couples bring to life here at The Lakeside, whether it’s colours, themes, printed details or hand-drawn illustrations.

Here are a few ideas that we think make a difference when it comes to statement stationery:

• Name your tables instead of numbering them - A small switch that adds personality and lets you tell a story that reflects you as a couple.

• Think beyond traditional place cards - They don’t have to be paper; consider adding names to something your guests can take home as a keepsake from the day.

• Get creative with your displays - Hanging signage, suspended boards, a-frames, mirrors…there are so many ways to elevate the look and tie in your theme. Adding some accompanying flowers, lanterns or other in-keeping décor at varying heights can make a real statement display.

Have a scroll through some of the varied, beautiful and unique signage and stationery from our real weddings.
Which ones are your favourites? 🤩

Colour, energy, laughter and fun — the perfect combination to launch our 2025 wedding season 🎉

S&R’s mid-May celebration was bursting with personality. As always, we provided the beautiful backdrop and collaborated with our couple to create a day that felt unmistakably theirs. A few of our favourite touches:

• Their friend officiating the ceremony dressed as a cardinal; hilarious, and unforgettable!
• Dreamy late-spring florals in lilac, purple, coral and pink by .
• Welcome drinks served before the ceremony and enjoyed throughout.
• Jelly-shot toasts to kick off dinner in true S&R style.
• A wedding breakfast inspired by Turkish kebabs to keep everyone happily fuelled.

If you’re looking for a venue to create a day that feels completely unique to you, full of personality, joy and meaning, we’d love to help you create it. Get in touch to book a viewing and start shaping your one-of-a-kind celebration 🥂
