Their Wedding Story
After navigating countless challenges and hurdles throughout their wedding planning journey, Stephanie and Rob finally had the summer wedding they had long dreamed of— and it was every bit as magical as they had hoped.
On a sun-soaked Saturday overlooking the serene beauty of Bassenthwaite Lake, Steph & Rob tied the knot at the stunning Armathwaite Hall Hotel, a venue that perfectly matched the joy and elegance of their big day. The setting was picture-perfect, with panoramic views, vibrant greenery, and that unmistakable glow of Cumbrian summer sun.
The ceremony itself was emotional, intimate, and filled with heartfelt moments. A few happy tears were shed as Steph made her way down the aisle with her brother, surrounded by their closest friends and family, and let's not forget their two beautiful children, Charlie and Lilah, who added an extra layer of meaning to the entire day as they walked down the aisle just before Steph did.
Following the ceremony, guests spilled out into the sunshine for celebratory drinks. The warm weather was in full force, and while many basked in it with a smile (and a prosecco in hand), others could be seen seeking out any sliver of shade they could find! Providing a beautiful soundtrack to the afternoon was the incredibly talented Gill Wadeson Violin, whose music drifted across the gardens, creating a relaxed Ibiza feel to their reception.
To Mr. and Mrs. Short—the biggest and most heartfelt congratulations! Your journey together has already been filled with beautiful memories, and we know the future holds many more adventures. Here’s to the next chapter—one that promises joy, laughter, and a lifetime of happiness.
