Another 25 guests took part in the evening celebrations in the venue <a href=\"http:\/\/www.easyweddings.co.uk\/WeddingDecorations\/\">carefully decorated<\/a> by the bride and her bridesmaids the day before.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer says the day turned out better than planned and had the laid-back vibe they were after.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It wasn&#8217;t a traditional structured wedding. It was relaxed and chilled and everyone could let their hair down, relax and enjoy themselves,&#8221; she says.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The feedback we got was amazing. People saying that it changed their mind of what a wedding should be like.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Photos courtesy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jamiriphotography.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener
