Welcome to the Wedding of Juan and Lily at Dudgeley Farm in Church Stretton, Shropshire.

A Summer Celebration of Two Cultures: Juan & Lily’s Wedding in Church Stretton

Juan and Lily’s wedding was a heartfelt celebration of love, heritage, and togetherness—set against the rolling hills of Shropshire at the picturesque Dudgeley Farm. The couple met while studying at Bristol University, and chose to marry in Lily’s hometown of Church Stretton, surrounded by the landscapes she grew up with.

The ceremony took place at Saint Michael and All Angels C of E Church, just next door to Lily’s family home. The morning was beautifully calm and intimate, filled with quiet moments as Lily prepared for the day in the house where she’d spent her childhood.

From the outset, their wedding was a seamless blend of cultures. Juan, originally from Ecuador, brought a vibrant Spanish flair to the day—from the music and colour palette, to the warmth and energy of the celebrations. These elements contrasted and complemented the traditional Shropshire countryside details, creating something truly unique.

One of the most touching moments came during the speeches, when Lily, along with her father, both addressed guests in Spanish. It was a powerful gesture—one that captured the spirit of the day and the couple’s journey. Two families, two cultures, and two people coming together with grace and love.

Set beneath a soft summer sky, surrounded by nature and loved ones, Juan and Lily’s wedding was more than a union—it was a celebration of connection and belonging.

Rebecca & Jack got married on a beautiful November day with a ceremony at St Peters Church, Worfield. They then transferred back to the stunning Davenport House in their very own Triumph Spitfire, brought and lovingly restored for the day!

I will remember this day for the beautiful people, moments, speeches, music and emotion that lasted for the entirety. A Wedding of true class, as their photographs will show you, congratulations Rebecca & Jack, thank you for letting me be part of your Day!
