Last weekend we catered for a wedding celebration at Grove Cottage for Alex and Kelly Gee. It was a glorious weekend with the weather adding to the occasion.

The couple decided to go for a garden party themed reception in the grounds of the beautiful Grove Cottage. Evening drinks took place in this outside bar with wicker sofas, garden-style lanterns and bunting.

We spotted this sign on a fence, which summarises the playful atmosphere of the occasion. Hanging cute wooden signs around your venue pointing towards key places, such as the bar and toilets adds a vintage touch.

These windmill name placards are adorable as they add to the fun and excitement of the theme.

A garden party wouldn’t be complete without lawn games. This wedding allowed guests to enjoy a game of croquet whilst celebrating the nuptials of the happy couple…

…Not only that, there was a bouncy castle also that allowed the adults to relive their childhood. After all ‘it is not how big you are, it is how big you play’.

Would you go for a nostalgic garden party theme for your wedding? What games would you have?
