When you picture a romantic proposal, it’s hard to top the stunning coastline of Dubrovnik, Croatia — and that’s exactly where this love story took a magical turn. In June 2022, under the golden Mediterranean sun and with the charm of Dubrovnik as their backdrop, this couple took the first step toward forever.
Fast forward to their big day, and they chose a venue that was every bit as beautiful and meaningful: The Maynard, nestled in the heart of the Peak District. With sweeping views, immaculate grounds, and a reputation for exceptional service, it was everything they were looking for — and more. Being local meant their families could be close by, and with delicious food and glowing reviews, the decision was easy.
The wedding itself was a vibrant celebration of summer, brought to life through a palette of peachy pinks and soft hints of blue. The décor was bright, joyful, and full of warmth — just like the couple themselves. Every detail was thoughtfully chosen, and the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between elegance and effortless fun.
Among the laughter and music, there was also space for quiet reflection. A memory table, lovingly set up to honour those no longer with them, brought a heartfelt touch to the day and ensured that every loved one was present in spirit.
When asked what they were most excited for, their answer was simple but powerful: “Celebrating with everyone close to us.” And that’s exactly what the day became — a joyous gathering of family and friends, surrounded by nature, filled with love, and framed by the timeless charm of The Maynard.
With sunshine streaming through the windows, a colour palette that radiated summer vibes, and a setting that perfectly combined beauty and comfort, this wedding was a true celebration of life, love, and togetherness in the heart of the Peak District.
