“As with many weddings, the food was the main expense as we had quite a few guests and we wanted to be able to cater to everyone’s dietary requirements”, she explained. To save money Steph did her own make up, they did a lot of DIY projects and bought non-traditional bridesmaid dresses/ They only hired one car and borrowed other vintage cars from family and friends. We used CDs to look like miniature records with all the information in the centre.” Our Save the Dates were magnets that we designed using a photo of us from our engagement shoot. We also spent many evenings putting together our perfect playlists for everyone to enjoy.

They both really enjoyed doing DIY projects together in the lead up to their wedding they even made up envelopes with everyone’s name on, with scratch cards and a lucky sixpences inside for their name cards! “We really enjoyed designing and making our wedding board together. It is said to have the longest aisle in Britain (which didn’t help with my wedding nerves!)” “Port Sunlight is a historic village and Christ Church, while quite ordinary from outside, is breathtakingly beautiful inside.


“Although our evening was what some might consider unconventional we had a traditional wedding ceremony in a beautiful setting,” began Steph. They began their day with a traditional church wedding. One of the acts they saw on their fist date, Suzie Sequin, even played at their reception! Steph and Chris’ first date was at a burlesque show in Liverpool and they decided to recreate that atmosphere for their wedding! They infused their eclectic tastes into a perfect day of vintage, Rock n Roll, burlesque and mid-century classic style in a local historic venue.
