Getting to Know…LouPaper
![](https://www.millbridgecourt.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Image-20-05-2024-at-16.57.jpeg)
Louise is the wonderfully talented lady behind the modern luxury stationery brand, LouPaper. We caught up with her on all things weddings and how beautifully created stationery can have a real impact on your wedding day!
What made you decide to work in the wedding industry?
I actually had a Saturday job at my local wedding boutique so my love for weddings started at the age of 15, I just adored working with such happy people planning the most amazing day. I studied graphic design at university and merged this passion for the industry with my love of all things creative and that’s when LouPaper was born!
How would you describe your style of stationery?
Luxury and modern with personal touches. I specialise in modern calligraphy and hand lettering so each design comes with it’s own quirks and character. I believe that stationery gives each couple an opportunity to reflect their personality and interests, so I try to capture this in all my designs.

L – Jonny MP; R – Philippa Sian
What is your favourite part of stationery to create for a couple?
For me wedding stationery is about translating each of my couples love story onto paper, celebrating them and their big day. Bringing this to life through hand lettering, tactile card and luxurious finishes is my favourite bit!
What is the one piece of stationery that you would recommend every couple invest in?
There are a few must have items of stationery for the big day, but some gorgeous welcome signage never fails to impress. Positioned at the entrance to welcome each guest and set the tone for the big day. I can also include an order of the day on the same sign so everyone knows the plan ahead, your guests will want to know what time food and drinks are!

Can you share some of your favourite moments from your Millbridge Court couples?
There are a few stand out weddings for me. Rebecca & Michael got married at the end of last year and worked with a dream team of suppliers. I always get so much joy seeing my stationery styled with gorgeous blooms, so this one was extra special. Rebecca had a keen eye for detail and all her hard work and planning really paid off on the day.
Another was Hannah & Tom’s August wedding day, again a fabulous team and beautiful styling. Hannah was another details driven bride (my favourite) and thought of every element with so much attention and thought. It all looked so beautiful on the day.

Apart from a calligraphy pen, what other items can you not do your job without?
My trusty mac, I work on this most of the day, designing with the Adobe creative suite. I use my apple pencil & ipad to make my calligraphy digital which saves a lot of time. And then I of course have an abundance of stationery for production & packing, including my Sellotape dispenser which I couldn’t live without!
What do you love most about Millbridge Court?
All of the interior details, from the divine smelling candles always burning and sumptuous soft seating, to the one way window in the bridal prep room and rustic furniture. Millbridge has it all covered and it’s a beauty!

Q&A with Frankie at Kalm Kitchen
![](https://www.millbridgecourt.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Millbridge-ByCatherineCarterWeddings-152.jpeg)
Frankie plans all our weddings here at Millbridge Court so we wanted to sit down with her ahead of the upcoming wedding season and find out all about her and what she loves most about planning your special days!
What is your role?
I plan all of our lovely Millbridge Court Weddings, from introductory calls to tasting evenings to final planning sessions. I take our couples from first booking to their big day. I am here to answer any questions, help make planning decisions and handover all the important details to our operations team on the day.
What drew you to wanting to work in the wedding planning industry?
I have always loved the idea of working in events, seeing how they go from an idea to how it is executed on the day, and all the moving part. The opportunity came up to work at Kalm Kitchen, and it perfectly fit with what I wanted in a job. I get to work with amazing people, on such exciting occasions. Behind the scenes, I put my planning mind to use, and create the detail that goes into each and every event. I am an organiser through and through!
What do you love the most about helping our couples plan their wedding day?
I love working with people, and working with people on such a joyous and exciting event makes it all the better! Watching the excitement a couple have when planning their day through to their satisfaction when all their hard work starts to come together.
What is your favourite part of a wedding day?
This is such a tough one because there are so many wonderful parts of a wedding! I think the most amazing thing to see is when a couple have walked back down the aisle and are taking a moment and looking at each other like ‘we just got married!’. After so much hard work and build up there is such a release of emotion, and there is so much more excitement to follow.

Favourite station of Kalm Kitchen’s?
Our new taco station is amazing- the styling looks so fab and the tacos are delicious.
Do you have any top tips for our couples who are at the start of their wedding planning journey?
Of course!
* Have a wedding email that you always check! You are going to get bombarded by information and questions from suppliers so having it all in one place will help you get organised
* Remember the day is yours, of course you want your lo
ved one to have an amazing time, but it is most important that you have an amazing time
* No question is silly- you don’t plan a wedding everyday but we do!
* Everything takes longer than you think on the day, we can help you make a timeline that will be doable so you are not stressing about time on the day.
* Have fun with it! It can be such a daunting task planning a wedding- there is so much that goes into it. Make sure you take time to enjoy the process.

2024 Floral Trends
![](https://www.millbridgecourt.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/022millbridge-court.jpg)
As the nights are drawing out, and lighter evenings are coming, we wanted to inject a little pop of colour into your wedding flowers inspiration and talk all things floral trends for 2024. We caught up with some of our lovely floristry partners for an insight into their world!
We asked Camilla Creations:
What is your favourite display to create?
I adore creating table flowers, specifically bowl arrangements. They work perfectly for both round and long tables, and are the perfect choice for impact without becoming over powering to the room, or impairing guests’ view and interaction.
Favourite flower?
This changes with most seasons, and it’s almost impossible to pick one! If I really had to choose, it would be sweet peas. They are so delicate, with the most divine scent. I use them as much as I can when they are with us between the Spring and Summer.
Any tips for couples looking to book a florist for their big day?
My first piece of advise would be not to enquire with too many florists, as it will quickly become overwhelming. Look through your venue’s recommended suppliers and chose no more than 3 florists whos style align with the vision you have with your date. My second piece of advise would be to not base your decision on the cheapest quote received, but on the proposal that has you the most excited, and the florist who you feel you can trust to not only deliver what you desire, but exceed your expectations!

We asked Hannah Berry Flowers:
What do you see being the biggest trend of 2024?
Colour! Clients are being braver and choosing bolder colours to work with which excites me a lot! Maybe inspired by the release of ‘Barbie’ last year or ‘Peach Fuzz’ – the Pantone colour for 2024. We have lots of colourful weddings this year!
What is your favourite flower?
Now this is a hard one! It really depends on the season … I adore a delicate Galanthus Nivalis aka a Snow Drop. One of the first flowers to pop up after a long dark winter and there are so many different varieties. When you take the time to take a closer look at them, you really appreciate their delicate flower form and pure white colour.
A close second is a woodland Digitalis aka a Fox Glove. A tall, charming and some what magical flower form in pretty colours – I just adore them.
Do you have any tips for couples when they are choosing their florist?
Create a mood board of inspiration and have a list of desired floral items you can share with your floral `designer. This will really help them understand and develop personalised designs that reflect your ideas. If you have a budget in mind for florals, its important to share this information too. This will allow them to be honest with what they can achieve and help guide and suggest designs that will create the biggest impact on the day.

We asked Bloomantic:
What do you see as the biggest trends for 2024?
Colour, colour, and more colour! While neutral, earthy tones were huge last year (and we will love them forever), it’s time to make space for some more exciting colour combinations. Whether it’s soft, delicate pastels, joyful, warm, vibrant shades, or big, bold, statement colours, we are going to see a lot of them in 2024. I’ve been creating some gorgeous colour palettes for my couples and I’m so excited to bring them all to life this year!
Classic ceremony plinths are also coming back with a bit of a modern twist. We will often see them grouped up at different heights, and dressed in gorgeous florals, creating a lot of dimension, and beautifully adorning the ceremonies.
How would describe your style and has it changed over the years?
I create very natural looking, untamed, and textural arrangements and installations, with an elegant, abundant, and refined feel to them. I also describe my vibe as modern, cohesive, and intentional. My aim is always to create a gorgeous, impactful space for my couples, where all the different floral elements beautifully flow together, telling a story.
My style has definitely changed over the years – it used to be a lot more rustic and boho. I guess in the same way that we as people continue to grow and become better versions of ourselves, what we do also becomes more tuned and refined over the years. We get to discover and develop our very own, unique style. It’s a journey!
What is your favourite piece to create on a wedding day?
Ceremony installations, no question! I’m a huge fan of marriage and I’m so excited for my couples to step into this wonderful chapter of their lives, so of course I find the exchanging of vows and the moment they become husband and wife the most important and meaningful part of their wedding day. I guess this is why creating gorgeous, impactful ceremony installations is my favourite part of designing. Whether my couples want to be framed by a big and abundant floral arch or are looking for something a little bit more minimalistic, I’m always excited to design their ceremony feature. I ensure it works perfectly well with the surroundings and beautifully contributes towards creating the vibe they want to feel on that special day they will treasure forever.

We held our wedding at Millbridge Court just before Christmas, and the team could not have been more accommodating, helpful, and generally wonderful from start to finish. It’s a beautiful venue and the team are genuinely so invested in you having the best day. Huge thank you to the Millbridge team for everything!

N & A – Married at Millbridge September 2023
We recently married at Millbridge and in the words of every single guest – the best wedding they’d ever been to!
It’s easy to be biased at your own wedding but the team at Millbridge Court made everything run so smoothly. Their professionalism is second to none and they were so friendly and informative throughout the whole process from our first viewing to even the day after when I thought I’d lost my wedding shoes! I really couldn’t relate to anyone who said they were stressed during the planning phase because Millbridge had it so in hand, and the members area of the website made our lives so easy – even down to choosing suppliers like make-up artists and DJs.
The venue itself lends itself so beautifully to indoor or outdoor weddings and we got to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of the Arbour for our confetti toss despite having an indoor ceremony. We loved the close knit feel of Millbridge, even down to having our closest friends and family stay at Millbridge and breakfast the morning after, which was such a nice touch to be able to catch up and talk about everyone’s favourite moments of the day (and drink lots and lots of coffee).
I cannot thank Shelby, Chloe, Hayley, Caroline and all of the other wonderful members of staff who made our day so perfect enough for their hard work.
Whilst I could ramble on forever about how perfect our wedding day was, I’ll stop here but if you’re looking for a venue, Millbridge is the one.

WOW! We had the most incredible wedding day at Millbridge Court and cannot fault the staff throughout our planning process and on the day. Everyone was so friendly, helpful, and made sure that we didn’t have to lift a finger on the actual day – they made us feel so calm. The food was incredible (thank you Kalm Kitchen!!) and our suppliers were fantastic. Although they do this daily, we felt so special and like we were the only wedding that week. Everything was so personal, and they thought about every little finishing touch. Without a doubt the best day of our lives!

C & B – Married at Millbridge June 2023
Millbridge Court was actually the first venue we looked at and we fell in love with it instantly. From the gorgeous green outside space to the wonderful bridal loft, it feels like you’re stepping into a gorgeous warm welcoming country home. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful this venue was and how it perfectly complimented us as a couple. The pictures speak for themselves!
The Millbridge team are incredibly attentive and helpful, even though they are communicating with hundreds of couples they made us feel so special and as if we had their undivided attention at all times – all the way from the open day through to our wedding day. Same goes for their caterers Kalm Kitchen – their food is as beautiful as it is delicious, and they helped us so much through all the selection processes and overall set up of our special day.
We can’t thank the Millbridge team and Kalm Kitchen enough for all of their help.

Millbridge Court is such a stunning venue, and we are so lucky we were able to host our wedding there. The grounds are so beautiful and colourful, it didn’t do the pictures justice! Everything has such a personal touch it really makes you feel at home. To the entire team at Millbridge Court we want to thank you for being so friendly and helpful throughout the entire process and as well to the team on the day. You really made it special, and we wish we could repeat the day all over again. We truly were sad to leave the following day (especially the gorgeous hideaway cabin) and hope we can visit again very soon!

Getting to Know – Eloise and Mitch
![](https://www.millbridgecourt.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/IMG_6424-scaled.jpg)
Eloise and Mitch recently became a Millbridge Court Partner! We loved working with them throughout the 2023 season and so we wanted to catch up with them to give you a little glimpse into the world of a wedding photographer.
What first made you fall in love with photography?
I have always adored photos. Being able to have a glimpse into my family’s life before I even existed is magic. I love to be able to look back on memories and moments. Photography gives us the opportunity to pause time, capturing unique instances that would otherwise pass by in a blur.
The excitement stems from knowing that every photograph tells its own story, revealing emotions and experiences that words often fail to capture adequately. Each photograph is like opening a door into another world brimming with nostalgia and joy. In our fast-paced lives, having the ability to document and preserve these memories brings me happiness.

![Date Night Date Night](https://www.millbridgecourt.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/2H6A2462-683x1024.jpg)
What made you decide to work in the wedding industry?
I always loved the idea of being in the wedding industry and it all began when I started working for a venue as a wedding planner! I was so young; I took a few years out to go travelling and this is where I met Mitch. He was an established filmmaker in the music industry and the creative element really intrigued me.
We first met in September and then moved in together February. When you know, you know! After a few years, our perspective shifted from living for the weekends to cherishing each moment. We realised that true happiness lay not in accumulating possessions but in cultivating meaningful experiences. We found ourselves yearning for something more meaningful and purposeful in our lives. Our shared experiences and deep conversations made us realise that true fulfilment came from pursuing our passions which was telling visual stories through photo and film. We went with this gut feeling and we started ‘Eloise and Mitch’ which really is the best thing we have ever done!

How would you describe your style of photography?
Photos with feeling!
To be a good photographer, I believe you have to be very empathetic. It’s about immersing yourself into the world of your subject and truly understanding their emotions, their struggles, and their joys. It allows you to connect with people on a deeper level, gaining their trust and enabling you to capture raw, authentic moments that resonate.
Our ethos is “It’s about beauty in the passing moments.” Being able to read between the lines, anticipating what might happen next. The ability to understand others’ perspectives creates photos that truly mean something.
What is your favourite part or parts of a wedding day to capture?
I love looking out for moments with meaning and joy! Every moment is so special on your wedding day and it’s such a pleasure to document. A moment that tends to be filled with joy is just after you have said “I do”.
What top tips and advice do you give to couples ahead of their wedding day?
Remember it’s a celebration of your love. Try not to get too caught up with “trends” and “what your wedding should be”. Your wedding should feel personal to you both.
Be present and just have the time of your life!!!

Can you share some of your favourite moments from your Millbridge Court couples?
There are so many to choose from! A moment that springs to mind is Louise and Jacks’ Day, it was torrential rain, and we all ran outside with umbrellas and embraced that moment. It was so romantic and fun which in turn created some of my favourite images.
Apart from your camera’s, what other things can you not go to a wedding day without?
Good energy and trust! This is all I need!
What do you love most about Millbridge Court?
The venue is just beautiful. The way that the team ensure that the day runs seamlessly and how they are always thinking about the little details. I love how there is room for everyone to get ready at Millbridge Court and how they have a beautiful hideaway too for the evening of your wedding.

2024 Bridal Trends
![](https://www.millbridgecourt.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/FB-Dama-Couture-2.jpg)
The 2024 wedding season will soon be upon us, and for all you 2024 brides, the dress may be the one of the next big things on your list of to-do’s! We wanted to catch up with some of our partners and talk about all things bridal trends.
We asked Bridal Indulgence:
What do you see as the biggest trends for 2024?
Minimalist elegance: clean lines, simple silhouettes, and understated details have been popular in wedding dresses. Minimalist designs often feature sleek fabrics, such as satin or crepe, with minimal embellishments.
Statement sleeves: dramatic sleeves have been a prominent trend, with options like fitted sleeves, puff sleeves, or bell sleeves. These statement sleeves can add a touch of romance or vintage charm to a wedding dress.
Bows: who doesn’t love a bow? From a small bow that works as a finishing touch to a big dramatic bow that is the statement of your dress; they’re feminine and fun and we’re loving them!
Non-traditional colours: while ivory remains a classic choice, some brides want something a little more non-traditional like blush, champagne, or even bold hues like black or blue. These unconventional colours can add a unique touch to the wedding dress.
Detachable elements: wedding dresses with detachable elements, such as removable skirts, sleeves, capes, or overskirts, continue to be a popular choice. These versatile designs allow brides to have different looks throughout their wedding day, without spending out on multiple dresses.
What is your favourite look?
That’s really hard to narrow down just one look! But we’re currently loving how brides are switching up their look throughout the day with same dress with detachable sleeves, straps, and overskirts.

We asked The Farnham Boutique:
Give us a little insight into the designers you are stocking this year?
We have 4 designers at The Farnham Boutique, and each brings something different to the party. Made With Love brings contemporary, sophisticated elegance. Madi Lane brings romance. Evie Young boasts drama and Dama Couture has a bohemian coolness that we are so excited to introduce in 2024!
Veils – yes or no?!
YES! Veils add something quite spectacular to your photos (especially when the wind blows) and of course to your dress. It’s all about picking the right one. We love a long plain veil for that dramatic look!
What is your absolute all-time favourite look?
It’s so hard to choose as it changes all the time. At the moment we love the plain, fitted dress but it all depends on who wears which dress. Every bride is so unique, and the dress has to reflect that.

We asked Sophie Rose Bridal:
What do you think the biggest trends for this year will be?
It’s all about the sleeves! Long sleeves, puff sleeves, detachable sleeves, they’re all back and I’m VERY happy about it. I’m not a big believer in trends when it comes to wedding dresses, as I think it’s about simply wearing an outfit that makes you feel truly you and your most beautiful self, but I find sleeves often help women feel so much more comfortable and confident, so I’m all for it.
How would describe your collection for the upcoming year?
I’ve just released the Studio Collection, which is a collection of dresses that have an edge of simplicity but still with a romantic, relaxed feeling. I think women are realising more and more that there aren’t any ‘shoulds’ when it comes to bridalwear and wearing what makes you feel most comfortable is what’s important. More intimate weddings are also becoming more popular, and I think the Studio Collection suits that really well.
Any tips for brides looking for their dream dress?
Take time to research where you’re going to book an appointment to try on dresses. If somewhere resonates with you and they have the style that excites you, then they’re the places to go. I’d also suggest going with only a couple of people maximum. Choosing your dress can only really be your decision and having lots of voices as part of that decision can be very overwhelming and confusing! There will be plenty of fitting appointments that your special people can be a part of if you wish, so you can still have them as part of your dress experience.

Getting to Know – Made with Grace
![](https://www.millbridgecourt.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/FullSizeRender-1.jpeg)
Meet Grace! She’s been a Millbridge Court partner for just over a year now and every time she is here at the venue, we are in absolute awe of her floral gorgeousness. The rustic designs, use of natural foliage and our shared love for Autumnal floral installations – we just had to share some of Grace’s recent work – simply stunning!
How would you describe your style of floristry?
Romantic, feminine, elegantly wild, unconventional and artistic.
What first made you fall in love with flowers?
Having always had a deep love of craftsmanship and the arts, combined with a joy of admiring the beauty of the countryside when we got our dog, I began to explore the world of floristry, and I simply fell head over heels. I found the ability to transform space and evoke awe and wonder through floral artistry totally addictive and I feel so grateful to now be the artist behind creating this source of great pleasure for the beholder.

What made you decide to work in the wedding industry?
A love of the variety of wedding designing, the bespoke nature of the work and the personal connections formed throughout the experience of the design service.

What top tips and advice do you give to couples ahead of their wedding day?
You don’t have to have it all figured out from the beginning, follow trends and traditions or have a perfect pinterest board. By choosing suppliers that you love, trust and ignite your excitement, they will be able to take inspiration from what means the most to you and create really special work, perfectly reflective of you.
But, above all, enjoy it, every moment, from the planning right through to when you head home as newlyweds. Cherish the time and memories of celebrating the greatest power of all with those you hold closest.

What do you love most about Millbridge Court?
One, the light. The way it streams in through the huge windows, bathing everything in its path so elegantly. Flowers especially are best appreciated in natural light, so the abundance of this throughout the venue is perfect.
Second, the Millbridge team. Always kind, helpful and supportive, these qualities truly make all the difference to the comfort of you and your guests.
Can you share some of your favourite floristry from your Millbridge Court couples?
On a warm October day I had the pleasure of flowering at Millbridge Court with a relaxed style, autumnal and romantic brief. Amongst other designs, we created a textural and abundant floral runner framing the ceremony which then was moved to style the top table. The way the light framed and illuminated the floral details and shone through the amber leaves was stunning and created a warm and graceful ambience. The brides bouquet was also a favourite of mine, in elegant shades of rust, blush and burgundy, which she went on to press, preserving such a precious momento.

What floristry trends are you seeing for 2024?
More of a value than a trend I suppose, but I’m finding that couples are becoming increasingly conscious in their choices with regard to sustainability. Seasonality, celebrating British grown where possible and creating without floral foam are becoming commonly desired from their floral design service. Fortunately I strongly share these values and am always striving for green practices and happy to provide discussion and education on these aspects to those curious.

Details Date Night at Millbridge Court
![](https://www.millbridgecourt.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Millbridge-Court-Surrey-Wedding-Venue.jpg)
Our Details Date Nights here at Millbridge Court are fabulous evenings we always look forward to.
Once our couples have booked their wedding day with us, it is their first opportunity to come back and see the venue, not only dressed for the first time, but to speak to a handful of our partners and start getting inspired! Excitingly, we got to showcase our brand new wood fired pizza this year, with Kalm Kitchen firing up the oven for our couples to enjoy a slice. It is safe to say, they are delicious!
Having hosted the last one of 2023 just a couple of weeks ago, we wanted to look back at the fun we had along with thanking the amazing talent that helped make the evenings a success!
