One supplier for all your Cheshire venue styling needs…

Design & Styling a wedding requires multiple suppliers to bring your vision to life on the day. From tableware & linen suppliers to signage & stationery providers; the modern day wedding can often require over 10 individual creative suppliers to deliver your wedding aesthetic!

Soirée Studio is here to take the stress out of sourcing & managing all of your creative suppliers & provides everything needed to transform your Cheshire wedding venue including:

– Tablecloths & napkins

– Crockery, flatware, glassware, cutlery

– Decorative items such as candles & lanterns

– Furniture

– Lighting

– Backdrops

– Signage

– Stationery

– Floristry

A calm wedding morning…

One of the biggest challenges my couples face is early access to their Cheshire wedding venue to be able to set up in advance for the big day.

No one should be climbing a ladder in their rollers to hang decorations on the morning of their wedding day so Soirée Studio is here to do the hard graft for you!

I style your venue down to the tiniest details so your only focus is soaking up every moment with your wedding party & preparing for the day ahead.

Following your wedding, we also return to pack up all decor so you can enjoy your breakfast/hangover with your guests, without the stress of picking candle wax off table cloths or locating missing napkins.

” I was so happy that I could spend the day before the wedding & the morning relaxing & getting ready instead of worrying about table decorations & name cards etc. “

A modern, chic wedding at Dorfold Hall

by Corrie McDonald | Oct 25, 2023 | Real Weddings, Stationery, Venue Styling, Wedding Design

A modern, chic wedding at Dorfold Hall

Nestled within 800 acres of picturesque English countryside, the L’Écurie venue at Dorfold Hall exudes a chic & atmospheric ambiance. Natural light streams through the space, accentuating its modern & contemporary features; the perfect setting for Sam & Lewis’s Black tie Soirée.

When Sam & Lewis got in touch to discuss their design & styling at Dorfold Hall, I was instantly drawn by their desire to create a sleek, stylish look while still creating a laidback atmosphere for their guests.

A colour palette of champagne, almond & latte with accents of pitch black was the perfect colour combination to compliment their stylish springtime ‘black tie’ vibe.

When Sasha from Sassflower confirmed she was available to join forces & provide her floral expertise, I knew it was going to be a truly spectacular venue transformation! Sasha’s passion & unique floral designs continue to amaze me, not to mention her attention to detail & dedication to ensure every bloom looks flawless on the day.

Enjoy swooning over Sam & Lewis’s stunning photos which were expertly captured by Marta D Weddings & I hope their day provides you with some inspiration for your own Soirée!

” Corrie we could not thank you enough for getting the special little touches to shine out & recommend the best use of our space.

I 100% would recommend Corrie to anyone looking for someone to style an event or wedding! From the get go she was all ears, ideas and piecing together a display of us as a couple!

Corrie worked so closely with our other suppliers who truly seemed to make the dream team & our day will be one to go down in wedding history. Thank you so much for all your hard work x “

Relaxed Autumnal Wedding at Wyresdale Park

by Corrie McDonald | Aug 23, 2023 | Real Weddings

Relaxed Autumnal Wedding at Wyresdale Park

REAL WEDDING : Claire & James

VENUE: Wyresdale Park

Nestled in the heart of the Forest of Bowland, on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Scorton, Lancashire, Claire & James were instantly inspired by the homely charm & spectacular country views that Wyresdale Park had to offer.

With a shared love of the great outdoors, Claire & James opted for a colour palette of pine, chestnut, cinnamon & Latte which complimented the surrounding Autumnal countryside wonderfully, not to mention the abundance of beautiful blooms available at this colourful time of year.

DESIGN & STYLING

The overall aesthetic was influenced by natural materials found throughout the venue such as the stone floor in the ceremony room & towering oak beams over the dining area. I wanted to ensure these textures were reflected throughout the styling so opted for stoneware plates, natural linens & a beautiful wooden banqueting top table.

Tableware & decor was kept within a neutral colour palette to provide a backdrop for the sumptuous Autumn blooms by Gemma at Bluebells and daisies. Working with Gemma was a total breeze; her workshop is based on the grounds of Wyresdale Park which made set up & communication totally effortless. Her attention to detail & sheer passion for floristry shone through on the day, not to mention her infectious energy & love for all things weddings!

STATIONERY

Claire’s intricate gown was a real source of inspiration for me & incorporating the foliage embroidery details delicately through the stationery suite was a must! I used a debossing technique to press the foliage design into a gorgeous Italian hammered cardstock which gave a subtle, tactile quality to the inviations & incorporating a cinnamon block colour for the details card added contrast & elevated the overall suite.

For on-the-day stationery, I kept the overall designs clean & minimal with subtle pops of colour to add contrast against the Autumn blooms.

DREAM TEAM

Claire & James were an absolute dream to work with & after meeting at the Brides up North wedding fair at Capesthorne Hall, we instantly hit it off with a shared love of dogs, old school Land Rovers & the great outdoors!

Their wedding day was a collaboration of some of the best suppliers the North West has to offer including:

Photography – The McHendry’s

Floristry – Bluebells & Daisies

Cake Maker – Sugar Wishes

Dress – Essence of Australia at Ava Rose Hamilton

A NOTE FROM CLAIRE & JAMES

” working with Corrie was an absolute pleasure from the moment we met at a wedding fair in 2021, I now miss have emails from Corrie.

Not only was Corrie really easy to work and communicate with, she is patient and is happy to take suggestions/ideas from you and even taking last minute requests for on the day stationery. On our wedding morning we were completely relaxed knowing that Corrie was at the venue and styling it to perfection.

When we first approached Corrie it was mainly for Stationery, but after meeting her and chatting at a Wedding Fair (even having a tour of her fantastic Land Rover) we knew that we had to hire her to style our venue as well – this was honestly one of the best decisions we made throughout our whole wedding planning process, our venue looked better than I could have ever dreamed of!

I would not hesitate recommending Corrie to any future Brides & Grooms.

Thank you so much Corrie! “
