Millbridge Court Details Inspiration | Signage
Here on the MBC Journal, we love sharing posts featuring gorgeous flowers, delicious food & oodles of styling inspiration for the Halls & Arbor Ceremonies- this week however we wanted to focus on some of the smaller styling details, so we’re sharing a selection of imagery showcasing some of the beautiful Signage that Couples have had created for their Wedding Days at Millbridge Court.
For the creation of ‘Welcome’ signs, Ceremony signage, ‘Order of the Day’s’ & Table Plans, some Couples have called upon the expertise of talented Stationers, Calligraphers & Graphic Designers, with others seeing it as a fabulous opportunity for some DIY Decor & we always find it so wonderful seeing how perfectly these details tie in to the overall decor once they’re put in place on The Big Day itself, whether that be through the colour palette, the addition of beautiful florals or giant balloons.
So, if you’re at a stage in your planning process where you’re beginning to think about Stationery & Signage & are looking for inspiration regarding designs, styles or potential Suppliers, then look no further than the gorgeous images below.

The Lodge
Here at Millbridge Court we are so excited to announce a new development & brand new addition to MBC Wedding Days, The Lodge.
The Lodge is a separate building next to the Main House & on the first floor is The Den, a space for members of the Wedding Party to get ready on the morning of the Wedding. Designed with warm interiors, comfy seating & a fully stocked help-yourself bar with drinks & snacks, it really is the perfect place to spend quality time before the celebrations get underway. There is also a private garden which can be utilised in the warmer months.
On the ground floor of the Lodge is an additional bedroom which features a king-size bed, cosy seating area & en-suite bathroom which will be well suited for a member of the Wedding Party to spend the night following the days celebrations.
We will be sharing imagery & videos of The Lodge once it is completed over the course of the next week, so be sure to keep an eye on our Social Media channels to catch a glimpse. Xx
Shelf styling inspiration at Millbridge Court
Over the years, we have seen Millbridge Court transformed in so many breathtaking ways, whether that be through stunning florals, creative styling, balloon installations, opting to have alternative chairs, tables and linens, to list but a few.
A popular way for couples, Florists and Stylists to get creative in the Barn’s has been by utilising our shelves and pegs which feature in both the Ceremony and Dining Barn. Throughout the seasons, we here at Millbridge Court style the shelves with three tall glass bottles which have an individual flower placed in each of them and for some Wedding Days, particularly those with a neutral colour palette, these are left in situ throughout the celebrations, however we also see couples choosing to style the shelves in a way that ties in to their style and vision for their day. This might simply be by replacing the flowers with the type and colour of blooms that feature in their floral scheme, or it might be by adding flowers, plants, lights alongside the bottles, by hanging jars, ribbons etc from the wooden pegs or by removing the bottles altogether and adding abundant arrangements or cascading foliage. We have even seen some couples adding shelves in order to create a continuous arrangement down the entire length of the Barn.
For those of you still planning your Big Day, we thought we would share a handful of images showcasing the multitude of ways previous MBC Couples have styled the shelves in order to hopefully provide you with some wonderful inspiration.
Happy browsing, lovely readers! Xx

#mbcspringpreview2018
Last Sunday, we hosted our Annual Spring Preview & what a gorgeous preview it was, thanks to the amazing MBC Partners that joined us; creating inspiring displays & chatting away with our lovely MBC couples.
Showcasing stunning tablescapes in our Dining Barn were Alice (Meadowfolk), Carrie (The Topiary Tree), Katie (Blackberry & Bloom) & Gill Pike who each created such varied arrangements, from the rustic to the bold & beautifully blowsy… there was something for everyone. We had amazing wooden banquet tables & cross back chairs provided by Academy Furniture Hire & each table was complimented by coloured glassware from Crystal Hire.
The beautiful flowers weren’t just confined to the Dining Barn with Gill Pike showcasing her breathtaking foliage Moongate Arch in our Ceremony Barn, the perfect backdrop to any Ceremony & Carrie Macey created a statement urn arrangement outside the Millbridge Court entrance, a wonderful way brighten up a rainy day!
Further brightening up the grey day was Laura from Laura’s Paper Heart who serenaded our guests so beautifully throughout the event.
In our Bridal Changing Suite we had the amazing Carolanne Armstrong & Sharon Roberts doing Express Hair Styling & Make Up Sessions for our Brides. Such a wonderful opportunity to ask these very knowledgeable & talented ladies any questions & to trial a hairstyle/make up look for their Big Day.
Showcasing gorgeous Wedding Cakes were Andi Freeman & Melissa ( Thirty One Cakes) who also had delicious testers for our couples to try & the even more tasty treats were provided by Kalm Kitchen who circulated Canapes, yummy bowl food & they also put together yet another incredible Patisserie Boutique, with added foliage & Spring Flowers from Blackberry & Bloom.
We had MBC Partners Philippa Sian Photography, Jon & Laura from VLA Wedding Photography, Neale James & Sophie Duckworth showing our Brides & Grooms the phenomenal Wedding Days they have captured at Millbridge Court over the years. Thank you also to Ash Videography & Chris & Amy from W4 Wedding Films for not only joining us, but for putting together really beautiful videos of Sundays Event (you can find these on our Instagram & Facebook page).
Thank you so much to everyone that came to our Preview, we hope that you all had a really wonderful time & left truly inspired for your Wedding Day.

Stunning Summer Wedding Day #marriedatmillbridge
When the likes of MBC Partners Philippa Sian photography, Bubblegum Balloons & Bex from Blush Floral Design are brought together for a Wedding Day, we just know that the Venue will look utterly breathtaking & that every last detail will be captured so perfectly… & J+T’s Wedding Day turned out to be just as spectacular (if not even more spectacular) than we had anticipated.
The gorgeous florals & styling details started from the entrance with Bex creating cascading floral arrangements which overhung the doorway & these beautiful touches continued throughout the Barns & into the gardens. The Archway in to the Arbor Garden was adorned with blush, pink & white blooms; white rose petals lined the aisle & two elegant arrangements situated in copper vases framed the Arbor. The perfect styling and backdrop for a Summer’s Wedding Ceremony!
J+T’s vision for their Wedding Breakfast came to life so wonderfully. The Bubblegum Balloons installation of giant pink metallic & peach balloons along the beams of the Barn was such a showstopper & extra touches such as Glimmer & Thread’s sequin table runners & glamorous Louis chairs (provided by Academy Furniture Hire) created such a luxurious look. Adding to that luxury was Bex who created abundant dome centrepieces bursting with peonies, hydrangeas, roses & eucalyptus.
The amazing Philippa Sian Photography was the Bride & Grooms chosen photographer, & as always with Philippa, every last detail & all of personal touches were captured so amazingly & the love & emotion of the day is translated beautifully in her pictures.
Thank you to Philippa for sharing the wonderful images of J+T’s day with us & thank you most importantly to Mr & Mrs Maunders for allowing us to be a part in your incredible celebrations! Wishing you so much happiness in your married lives together! Xx

September Tasting Evening
This week, we’re sharing with you all a selection of gorgeous images taken by the lovely Jasmine Andrews, of the food, drinks & the beautiful setup from our September Tasting Evening.
We love the opportunity that these evenings provide for our couples, not only because they get to try & choose their Wedding Menu but also because they are able to see the Venue in action & at nighttime, they can also gain Wedding inspiration from a handful of fabulous MBC Partners, as well as getting to see the team once again & they can also meet other Millbridge Court couples who they can chat to & share their thoughts & ideas with throughout the evening.
Creating the breathtaking tablescape was our newest MBC Partner, Eden Blooms, a Farnham based Florists who we have had the pleasure of working with on many occasions over the past few years, & who created such intricate & delicate jars of flowers, in wonderfully vibrant & deep autumnal colours on the day of our tasting. Complimenting the change of seasons further was their use of metallic pumpkins & candle holders, as well as a beautiful moss wreath which hung from our shelves. Adding the final touches to the table setup was the one & only Judy Broad Calligraphy who made such exquisite place cards using gold ink on deep blue card which matched the blue & silver striped linens so perfectly.
Serenading our wonderful MBC Brides & Grooms throughout the evening was Tristan Mackay, an amazingly talented musician, singer & songwriter who we always adore working with & listening to.
Lovingly bringing the menu to life was the always outstanding Kalm Kitchen. From the canapés, to the sharing plates, to the intricately plated dishes & the Patisserie Bar (complete with cascading florals by Eden Blooms no less), everything looked, smelt & tasted divine.
Thank you to everyone who we worked alongside to create yet another wonderful Tasting Evening & to all of our lovely Millbridge Court couples who attended, we hope you had the most fabulous evening with us!
So, without further a do, here are Jasmine’s gorgeous snapshots of our September Tasting Evening! Happy browsing.

The Millbridge Court Autumn Preview 2017
On Sunday, we hosted the Millbridge Court Autumn Preview; an event we host twice a year for our MBC couples, so that they can see the Venue filled with breathtaking Wedding inspiration, as well having the opportunity to try some delicious food & chat to the Millbridge Court Partners showcasing their beautiful work.
We are always completely in awe of what our wonderful Partners create on the day & last weekend was certainly no exception. Creating exquisite tablescapes & arrangements throughout the Venue were Paula Rooney, Carrie Macey (The Topiary Tree), Bex Morgan (Blush Floral Design) & Hannah Berry & showcasing their gorgeous & intricate Wedding Cakes were Andi Freeman & Ellie (Milk Street Kitchen) whose setups looked ever so gorgeous with extra floral touches provided by Blush Floral Design.
Kalm Kitchen once again created a jaw-dropping Patisserie Bar alongside Hannah Berry flowers, complete with a hanging branch installation, orange & metallic pumpkins & seasonal blooms. They also launched a new & innovative food stall… The Pretzel Bar!
The photographers who joined us for our preview were VLA Wedding Photography, Philippa Sian Photography & The Springles; photographers who are always such a pleasure to work with, are immensely talented & all have such distinctive looks. Alongside them, we also had Hannah Aldridge (Hannah Films) showcasing her gorgeous Wedding Day videos for our couples to see.
Adding to the ambience was Thom Morley who serenaded our Brides & Grooms throughout the day and we also had the pleasure of having the ever so lovely Gemma Milly joining us & displaying her stunning stationary.
Thank you to Kat & Ash for taking the time to take such amazing images of the day & we are so excited to share them with you below.
