I loved that everyone could walk from their hotels to the church and then on to the reception, led by our amazing processional jazz band to keep <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.co.uk\/articles\/wedding-guest-mistakes\/\">guests<\/a> entertained along the way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Their British Garden wedding on June 9, 2018 included 90 guests in the day and 120 in the evening. \u201cTim\u2019s talented friend captured our silhouette along with our canine-child Saffa, and this formed our wedding artwork which we included on all our stationery and also on our cake,\u201d says Gabi.<\/p>\n<p>The couple did away with the traditional top table at their reception, instead they had a 24-foot long table seating the full wedding party and their plus ones under an incredible hanging flower installation. \u201cEven though there is definitely a lot more work and stress getting married in a garden, I loved the flexibility of being able to define every single element of the day and make it completely unique to us,\u201d smiles the bride.<\/p>\n<p>Photos courtesy of <a title=\"Ashok Suren\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ashoksuren.com\/\"
