Alternative Farm Wedding In Berkshire // Jodie & Karl

Jodie and Karl had a very cool and alternative farm wedding in Berkshire. With nearly everything home made or put together by friends and family, this was such a stunning DIY wedding. Even with the pouring rain that just didn’t stop, both Jodie and Karl certainly made the most of their incredible day, ending with pool bombing in full dress and suit! From confetti bombs, push bikes and a Lamb Al Alsador slow roasting on a wood fire, to the cool bands, dancing and the camping, this was one amazing wedding.

Alternative Farm Wedding In Berkshire With Jodie And Karl

I knew this wedding was going to be a little different, from the meeting we had a few weeks before over coffee. But when you see the bride riding around on her bike in full bridal dress welcoming her guests, I knew this going to be the start of something pretty cool! Let’s find out a little more about this awesome couple.

First names: Karl & Jodie
Ages: 31 & 28
Wedding date: 3/9/16
Venue: Jodie’s aunties farm – Cedars Farm Maidenhead Berkshire

How did you guys meet, tell me all?
At Liquid nightclub in Windsor 9 years ago. We then went to a Pendulum gig for our first date, which Karl fell asleep through!

How did you get engaged, is there a cool story?
On a bridge in Bruges – December 2015, Jodie guessed Karl was about to propose 5 minutes before and legged it!

What made you choose your wedding venue, did you look at many?
Jodie auntie’s farm is beautiful and Jodie spent a lot of time on the farm when she was a kid and most importantly it’s free!

What was the inspiration/theme of your wedding?
We wanted something laid back and informal, we didn’t have a theme but it’s accidentally turned out to have a festival feel, probably because we love festivals and camping. We decided to go without many of the traditions associated with weddings. We chose not to have bridesmaids, ushers or a best man. We took away the traditional speeches and just had Karl say a few words. The ‘top’ table was gone and table places were replaced with a sign that asked guests to sit anywhere. There was no ‘cake cutting’ and almost no first dance. However we changed our minds to that quite last minute.

What is your first song and why?
Jodie wanted drum and bass and karl wanted a lovey dovey song – we met in the middle and have florence and the machine – you’ve got the love (the xx remix)

What would be your number one tip to other couples planning their wedding?
Start any wedding DIY early, it takes longer than you think it would, we finished our DIYing a few months before the day meaning we could chill and enjoy the build up to the big day.

I can say that this was certainly one of the most inspiring and non traditional weddings of my year! It just shows how you do not have to follow what you think you have to have at a wedding, you can do it your own way and have such a cool day. It was such an honour to be part of something with so much thought and feeling. Plus as someone who loves his festivals and music, this wedding was certainly up my street. Even with the rain, Jodie and Karl had such a cool and alternative farm wedding in Berkshire.
