With the aim of creating a relaxed party vibe, a hog roast and Moroccan tagine was the ideal catering for Sarah and Chris’ rustic bohemian wedding.

The pair married on April 28, 2018 at The Old Barn at The Milky Way in North Devon, inviting 86 guests. “A lot of our friends and family are into their ales so we had a beer barrow with a selection to choose from,” explains Sarah, 35.

The bride says the ceremony was very informal, held within the vine-covered conservatory. “Drinks and nibbles were outside in the sunshine with prosecco and the beer,” she recalls. “The speeches and meal were in the old barn with food served buffet style and wine provided by us, to help keep costs down.”

The couple decorated the barn with lots of foliage, fairy lights, candles and home-made wooden signs to add their own style. “Another priority was entertainment. What could be more unique and memorable than dodgem cars? We knew this would be a talking point for our guests for a long time.”
