Congratulations Mr & Mrs Philpott!
We are so excited to be sharing with you, a Q&A and selection of stunning images of Abigail & Scott's beautiful wedding taken by All Occasions Photography during their wedding here at Old Thorns.
Their day started with Abigail and the bridal party getting ready in our Bridal Lounge, followed by the ceremony in the Hampshire Suite followed by a wonderful wedding breakfast and evening reception!
We asked Abigail & Scott to answer some questions for our Real Weddings Q&A, and here's what they had to say:
When did you get married?
08/07/2023
What room did you get married in?
Hampshire Suite
Why did you choose Old Thorns for your wedding?
We chose Old Thorns for our wedding because not only was the venue stunning but it was also very reasonably priced and ticked every single one of our boxes. Old Thorns is very experienced at weddings and we felt at ease throughout the whole process.
What was the style/vibe of your wedding?
We had a very summery vibe. Our colour scheme was baby Blue.
What was your favourite moment of the day?
Abi’s favourite moment of the day was during our first dance when Scott looked at her and said “This is the best day!” Scott’s favourite moment was when Abi walked down the aisle!
What did you love about your wedding day?
We loved how all the staff and suppliers made sure our day went so smoothly and how accommodating they were.
Any tips for future couples?
Our tip would be to try not to worry about anything! While we were getting ready we had rain, thunder and lightning. By the time of the ceremony, the sun was shining and our guests were enjoying ice cream and Bellini’s.
