Hannah and Tim's wedding on April 30th, 2022, was a day filled with joy and love, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the timeless Rise Hall estate in East Yorkshire. From the exquisite shoes to the heartfelt ceremony, their special day was a beautiful blend of elegance and emotion.

The Proposal

After over six years together, Hannah and Tim knew they wanted to get married. Tim chose to keep the proposal traditional, asking Hannah's father for permission at a local pub near her parents’ house in Beverley. He then returned to the house, got down on one knee, and asked Hannah to marry him. It was a deeply special moment, celebrated with champagne and calls to friends and family, marking the beginning of their journey to the altar.

Hannah's Tips

  • Venue First: Once you decide on your venue, planning the smaller details becomes much easier. The theme and overall style will naturally come together.
  • Dress Before Shoes: Choose your dress first, as this will guide your shoe selection. It’s tempting to dive into all things wedding-related, but having a dress helps narrow down your options.
  • Check Lead Times: Don’t leave things to the last minute. Items like bespoke shoes can take up to 12 weeks to produce, so plan accordingly.
  • Relax and Enjoy: Try to relax during the planning process and on the day itself. Many details that seem crucial in the planning stages may go unnoticed on the actual day. Focus on enjoying every moment.
