The welcome dinner is such a special time for families to come together before the wedding day – it’s a chance for the wedding party and family members to gather and celebrate their loved ones who are starting their own family… or rather, bringing two families together. This editorial was shot at a private estate, and I’d like to think that a home such as this would be the perfect place for a welcome dinner. Especially one with plaster walls from the 1800’s and wide-planked floor boards with a touch of blue in them! What a magical place to run through the halls and cheers the happy couple! xx, Jessa
