We love nothing more than seeing our home filled with guests and helping our couples plan their special day.  Hosting our Date Nights is another excuse for us to do just that!  On these evenings we collaborate with our handpicked MC partners to create a special experience for each and every couple.  With preparations underway for our next Dinner Date Night, we wanted to whet your appetite with some inspiration from our 2022 tastings.

In March we picked a rustic set up with vintage oak tables, and it was the first time Jonny MP joined us for a Date Night and we were delighted that he dived into the kitchen to capture the team from Kalm Kitchen plating up lots of delicious dishes.  Muted Affair enterainted our guests during the drinks reception and provided ambient music for the meal.  Farnham Sound & Light provide a bit of sparkle with a fairy light wall and the tablescape was finished with beautiful blooms from Gill Pike and delicate stationary from Gable & Grain.

When we reached September the team took inspiration from the autumnal days to come, with an earthy colour palette accented with gold and pink. Lavendar Hill not only adorned the tables and canapé trays but created a hanging installation in the Dining Hall.  For this evening the ethereal vocals of Lauras Paper Heart filled our front lounge for the welcome and continued over dinner.  The charming tassel place cards were provided by LouPaper and the fantastic Farnham Sound & Light were back with the super popular fairy light wall, if you don’t have a lighting installation booked for your wedding… what are you waiting for?!  This fantastic evening was captured by the wonderfully talented Matthew Lawrence.

By November we were ready to embrace the icy months so chose a modern winter palette.  The majority of couples attending our last tasting experience are holding their weddings with us in Spring, so we kept a hint of vibrance showcasing our latest cocktail…Pink Paloma, which was quite the hit!  Kalm pulled out yet another amazing dessert station with ‘Table of Tarts’ which a certain member of the team now has an eye on for their upcoming wedding…

A big thank you goes to LouPaper and Farnham Sound & Light for joining us once again, this time with chic, monochrome stationary and a Dining Hall filled with fairy lights, which added warmth.  The tablescape was even more beautiful than we had imagined on paper, bought to life by the talented Hannah Berry and captured by new MC partner Catherine Carter.  Live music can help a create wonderful atmosphere, so we invited Music by Kate & Dave to join us with their bespoke musical arrangements.

We have waited so long to finally be able to host our Details Date Nights (since November 2019 to be precise) and last month the wait was finally over!

It has been such a joy to welcome back our newly booked Couples and for them to be able to meet and chat to a selection of our super talented Millbridge Court Partners whilst also getting to see the Halls transformed with beautiful displays, tablescapes and installations and being able to enjoy tasty Kalm Kitchen treats and signature drinks. It’s the perfect way to start getting inspired and begin to visualise how your very own special day might look!

Below we wanted to share with you all some of the breathtaking details from our Date Night on March 9th where we were so lucky to have all of these incredible MC Partners joining us:

In April of last year, we had the privilege of hosting the Wedding Day of the wonderful Mrs & Mrs O’Brien. A Wedding day that was bursting with love from start to finish, something that is so evident when looking back at the photos from their day.

B&L enlisted the help of three utterly fantastic MBC Partners to create their dream day & with the Spring season having  just arrived, B&L made the most of the beautiful flowers that were in bloom with a soft colour palette of whites, greens & purples. In charge of creating their floral arrangements & stunning Bridal Bouquets were the lovely, Eden Blooms who transformed the Ceremony Room by creating gorgeous, fragrant pew ends & a handful of arrangements which were put on a rustic ladder stand & wooden crates. The Dining Barn featured soft green linens & glassware which complimented their Springtime look so brilliantly, & alongside the centrepieces, Eden Blooms made a feature of the shelves by draping long stem flowers from the pegs. Simple, yet so effective & making for a wonderful backdrop!

Their stunning, three tier naked cake was made by Milk Street Kitchen & was decorated with fresh berries, topped with blowsy white blooms. The cake took centre stage in the Dining Barn on our wooden island & was surrounded by spring time flowers.

Their photographer was the super talented Guy Collier, a photographer who you could tell really ‘clicked’ with B&L & who is always such a pleasure to work with. He ensured all of the spontaneous, loving moments were all captured so perfectly & you can get a real sense of the joy of the day from seeing his photographs.

So, all it leaves for us to say is thank you to Guy for sending us the gorgeous images featured below & thank you to Mrs & Mrs O’Brien for allowing us to a part of your spectacular Wedding Day. We wish you so much love & continued happiness in your married lives together.
