From the start, the day was filled with anticipation and excitement. Leanne looked absolutely radiant, her look perfectly crafted by Blade & Blush (@bladeandblush), while her bouquet and floral arrangements from Dried Wild (@driedwildflorist) added a natural, seasonal touch that brought the countryside indoors. The venue’s flexible spaces and picturesque surroundings set the stage for creative wedding photography, from candid moments in the open fields to classic group shots by the barns and lush gardens.
The ceremony was heartfelt and intimate, surrounded by family and friends who shared in every emotion. The rustic charm of Runa Farm’s barns, adorned with twinkling lights and seasonal blooms, created a magical setting for Leanne and Michael’s vows. As the newlyweds walked back down the aisle, their smiles were infectious – capturing the excitement and love that defined the entire celebration.
The reception was a feast for the senses. Mini Mixers (@minimixersfun) designed a stunning wedding cake that was not only a visual centrepiece but also a delicious treat for guests. The cake’s artistry reflected the couple’s style and added a sweet note to the festivities. Throughout the day, guests were delighted by the talents of caricature artist Tom Hebdon (@tomhebdon), whose quick sketches brought laughter and fun, and magician Paul Innes (@paulinnesmagic), who amazed everyone with his spellbinding tricks and interactive performances.
As evening fell, the celebrations gained even more momentum. DJ Phil Davids from GT Collective (@gtcollectiveuk) took over, ensuring the dance floor was always full and the party never lost its spark. The barn came alive with music, dancing, and the sound of laughter as friends and family joined together to celebrate Leanne and Michael’s new chapter. The open fields and gardens provided a tranquil escape for quiet moments and romantic portraits, while inside, the energy was electric and the joy contagious.
