The first wedding ever held at The Oakley: a lawn ceremony, a pond, and a field of wildflowers at sunset.

Tom and Ellen were married in August 2018 at The Oakley in Holly. Theirs was the first wedding ever held at the venue.

The ceremony was set out on the lawn in front of the new building, with white chairs facing the fields. Afterwards came portraits by the pond and in the long grass at sunset, then dinner and dancing in the reception hall.

Menzo Weddings was their DJ. The photographs here are from Bella Uno Photography, and the film of the day is below.
