| Gemma & Amelia | At The Carriage Hall

Real Wedding
Written By Miss Sammie

Housed in the former Plumtree railway station goods shed, this beautiful Victorian building has been lovingly restored into a stunning and unique venue. Tucked away within its own grounds with wonderful rural views, The Carriage Hall provides an idyllic setting for intimate wedding receptions up to grand ceremonies and celebrations. So it is no surprise that Gemma & Amelia picked The Carriage Hall for their wedding.

Packed with characterful feature, from the red brick walls and arched windows to the vaulted ceiling and double height glazing, it is easy to make The Carriage Hall look great but Gemma and Amelia didn’t rest on their laurels; in fact, if it was a case of “Go Big Or Go Home” they certainly went for it! Sticking to neutral, natural tones complimented by the gorgeous surroundings within the hall, their choice of wedding breakfast décor consisted of elevated pampas plumes, macramé table runners and signature neon signage.

After devouring a delicious dinner, the lights are dimmed and The Carriage Hall transforms into the perfect place to party the night away and that is exactly what the happy couple did. We have a sneaky suspicion that this day was filled with as much love as it was pampas; a stunning venue for a stunning day!
