Laura & Toby's Elegant English Wedding

Some love stories are written across miles, schedules, and fleeting moments, proving that when it’s meant to be, love always finds a way. Such is the story of Laura, a dedicated Norland Nanny, and Toby, a distinguished Sandhurst Officer, who planned their dream wedding in just six months despite their whirlwind schedules.

From a Chance Meeting to Forever

Laura and Toby first crossed paths at a Norland nanny/army ball. Over the years, their busy lives meant they only saw each other a handful of times—moments that proved enough to solidify their connection. When they decided to marry, practicality and romance blended beautifully. With Laura heading to Asia for work and Toby preparing for deployment, August became their perfect window to tie the knot.

Davenport House: The Perfect Venue

The couple entrusted their big day to the expert planners at Davenport House, Lizzie and Tallulah, visiting the venue only once before the wedding. This elegant stately home, with its timeless charm, served as the backdrop for a classic English wedding steeped in tradition.

A Timeless Palette

Laura and Toby opted for a dusty blue and white palette, evoking a sense of understated elegance. This color scheme was woven seamlessly into the day’s details, from floral arrangements to table decor, enhancing the refined ambiance of the venue.

Personal Touches & Sophisticated Style

The wedding was a true reflection of the couple’s personalities and their unique love story:

Toby and Guests in Uniform: The sight of Toby in his military uniform, alongside uniformed guests, added a poignant and regal touch to the day.
Traveling in Style: A vintage Mercedes-Benz whisked the couple away, perfectly complementing the wedding’s timeless aesthetic.
Laura’s Accessories: Laura embodied elegance with her Tiffany’s jewellery and iconic Manolo Blahnik shoes, nodding to her classic yet modern taste.

A Day to Remember

Despite the short timeline and busy schedules, Laura and Toby’s wedding came together flawlessly—a testament to love, trust, and the expertise of their planners. The day encapsulated everything they could have hoped for: tradition, beauty, and the joy of sharing their special moment with those closest to them.

Their story is a beautiful reminder that love can flourish even in the busiest lives, and with the right support and vision, a dream wedding can be achieved in even the tightest of timelines.

Here’s to Laura and Toby, who proved that love truly conquers all. May their marriage be as timeless and resilient as the wedding day that marked the beginning of their forever.
