Wedding Experience 2013

 Do Tell The Bride - future brides test drive their Big Day at the “Wedding Experience”


Newly engaged couples flocked to Denton Hall, Yorkshires finest wedding venue this spring to play dress up at a real life wedding experience.

Over 80 brides-to-be attended our second annual “Wedding Experience” at Ilkley’s Denton Hall on 14 April to try the venue and its suppliers on for size.

Following on from the success of our first event in 2012 the “Wedding Experience” threw away the conventional wedding fayre template of large conference venues crammed with similar suppliers, groaning grooms and blustered brides.

The future newlyweds were encouraged to walk down the aisle, sit at the top table and propose a toast to their imaginary guests.

We recognised that Yorkshire is the second most popular region for civil ceremonies in the UK and was crying out for a wedding fayre with authenticity.  Ourselves and Denton Hall scheduled the event for the start of the 2013 wedding season and invited selected suppliers to showcase their products and services, in the same way they would on the wedding day itself.


Our wedding package at Denton Hall is as unique as the bride and groom so we wanted to create an experience to give a real feel for what the Big Day may look like.


Wedding trends are showing that couples are opting for personalised weddings using their own vows, tee pees, vintage camper vans vintage crockery and music.  The hand-picked suppliers represented the current need to create a bespoke wedding day and included; The Event Music Company, The Whole Hog UK, Richard Wynn-Davies, Story Of Your Day, Steve Myers Photography, Ambience Venue Styling, Leafy Couture Wedding Flowers, TotallyTipi and Alexandra Lowe.
