Starting from scratch..

Jonny and Emilee had just gotten engaged and they already knew where they wanted to get married! However, there was a problem, they had just invested in a new gin distillery on the same site and the build was in its infancy. It was a building site!

They met with several suppliers, but decided on working with Storybook Settings after the very first meeting. We had explained our background of building things up from the ground and our ideas for their site, and they set us straight to work.

The plan needed to be versatile, adaptable and we were going to need to go with the flow. With our background of working on event sites, these skills had already been well honed and so we knew what to do. We built out a number of plans for Jonny and Emilee, to cover all eventualities in the build up to the big day.

The final results were 2 x marquees, linked into two faces of the existing buildings, so that they could utilise an existing restaurant and the brand new gin distillery. The main marquee was built over an existing pergola in their courtyard garden area and looked absolutely stunning with a starlit ceiling.

Jonny, Emilee and their guests from around the world had a fantastic evening and were absolutely thrilled with the final outcome! We wish them all the best with married life and hope to help them again with other special occasions!
