Vicki & Stu

Vicki & Stu’s winter wedding at Southcrest Manor in Redditch was a beautifully cosy celebration, filled with warmth and love. With a stunning winter theme, accents of green in the bridesmaid dresses and floral arrangements perfectly complemented the navy groomsmen suits.


The day was crisp and sunny, with a refreshing chill in the air. Vicki looked effortlessly stunning in her dress, wrapped in a cosy winter warmer that added to the seasonal charm. Meanwhile, Stu shared moments of camaraderie with his groomsmen as they helped him with his tie, shoes, and personalised cufflinks, making for some heartfelt photos.

Surrounded by close family and friends, their ceremony was short yet personal. As they stepped outside as newlyweds, they were greeted with a cheerful flurry of confetti, followed by fun group photos on the back lawn. The couple then took a quiet moment together for some intimate yet natural portraits, capturing their love in the crisp winter air.


The reception was filled with laughter, especially during the speeches when Stu’s best man and brother revealed hilarious childhood photos, which turned out to be a hit with everyone, especially Stu's son. After some relaxed mingling with their guests, the evening festivities began in full swing. The dance floor quickly came to life, as friends and family partied hard into the early hours, celebrating the love and joy of the newlyweds.



A truly perfect winter wedding, full of warmth, laughter, and unforgettable moments.
