This August, Chloe and William tied the knot at a breathtaking manor house wedding venue in Somerset. Surrounded by 80 of their friends and family for their wedding ceremony - with more arriving for their "nightclub style" reception in the evening - their wedding day was full of love and fun, filled with personal elements and unforgettable moments.
Their special day was captured by Toby Lidstone Photography, who was able to capture candid moments that truly reflected the joy they felt on their wedding day.
The Proposal
In 2021, William planned a weekend trip to London. While spending time with his family, Chloe noticed William acting a bit strange, pacing the room and repeatedly telling her how much he loved her. She asked William's aunt if she thought he was acting a little strange and her response was 'you don't think he is going to propose do you?' The day unfolded with a surprise speedboat trip along the River Thames. Just as they passed under London Bridge, William got down on one knee and asked Chloe to marry him - a moment she'll always cherish.
The Venue
For Chloe and William, finding the right venue was all about balancing sophistication during the day and fun during the wedding reception. Crowcombe Court was just the right choice. The couple always knew they wanted a summer wedding, and the date was significant as it was their daughter's due date, making it all the more special.

Crowcombe Court
Crowcombe Court is an enchanting manor house in Somerset, licensed for indoor or outdoor ceremonies.The Ceremony
With a black and white wedding theme, the couple kept the decor minimal yet classic, allowing the venue's features to speak for themselves. White roses adorned the space, with black accessories tying everything together seamlessly. The ceremony was heartfelt, surrounded by the people they love most.
The Wedding Fashion
Chloe wore a fishtail wedding dress from Champagne and Charlotte. Her bridal look was beautiful, with her hair styled in a low bun which allowed the intricate beading on her wedding dress to sparkle. The bride also chose a pair of personalised Converse for a fun, modern twist.
William looked dapper wearing a classic black and white tuxedo, with his groomsmen sporting black velvet blazers which added a touch of glamour to the classic look. Chloe's bridesmaids wore chic one-shoulder black jumpsuits to complement the wedding day colour palette, which looked great in photos.
The Food
For the wedding breakfast, Chloe and William treated their guests to a delicious three-course meal. Instead of traditional wedding favours, they opted for something more fun... mini bottles of Tequila Rose at each guest's place setting, encouraging everyone who drinks to let loose and enjoy the celebrations.
The couple opted for a three tier wedding cake, with each tier a different flavour: lemon, Victoria sponge and chocolate. They wanted a traditional wedding cake design with a twist, so they chose a modern black wedding cake with white flowers.
Favourite Moments
Among the laughter, speeches, and heartfelt moments, their favourite part of the day was seeing their children outside, laughing and running around. Their presence made the day even more special, reminding the couple of how much love and happiness family brings them. It was these small moments, that truly made the day unforgettable.
