As some couples are approaching their anniversaries, we thought it would be nice to reflect on some of our beautiful weddings at Lulworth Castle.
Anna and Antony at Lulworth Castle 14.06.2014
We first met the lovely Anna and Antony at a Lulworth Castle open day, where we are the recommended wedding planners, and right from the start it was clear Melanie and Anna got on like a house on fire. Being a busy couple with demanding jobs their time was limited and so they opted for our full planning service and we worked for them for just over a year to create their special day.
We recommended the talented Anna Morgan to Anna and Antony as their photographer and these images show exactly why. Many thanks www.annamorganphotography.co.uk for sharing these beautiful images.
The Scottish touch
It was important to the couple that we incorporated a Scottish element in their wedding due to their family connection. We integrated little touches such as thistles in the wedding flowers, handmade Kilt cookies as wedding favours and Scottish elements in the evening meal too. Which was exactly what the couple were looking for.

We were there to run a rehearsal for them the day before the wedding and there on the day to style the venue, help Anna get ready on time and ran the day to ensure that any problems were ours to deal with, leaving the Bride and Groom to enjoy their day uninterrupted.

Michelle and Mark at Lulworth Castle 05.07.2013
Elegant and full of detail – this was a stunning sunny wedding for the marriage of Michelle and Mark who came all the way from New York where they both now live to marry in Dorset where Michelle grew up. An absolute pleasure helping them pull their special day together with our partial planning service mostly over email and Skype with a few brief meetings when Michelle flew to England. We loved the detail that Michelle wanted to bring to this wedding and loved seeing it all come together. Images courtesy of Simpson Photography- Debra and Paul with thanks.

Trine and Ashley at Lulworth Castle 13.07.2013
We worked with the gorgeous Trine and Ashley on a full plan basis over an 18 month period. When we met with them they had booked their venue and we then spent time with them to agree a direction for the look and feel of the day to reflect them both. We created mood-boards and design ideas and it was clear that they were going to love the romantic and understated elegant style which we came up with. Using lots of soft touches, neutral colours with flowers and detail the style felt very “them”. Trine and Ashley chose Emma Hurley to photograph their day and they turned out beautiful.
The day itself was a stunning sunny day and the Bride looked incredible. We thoroughly enjoyed planning this day and seeing all our style ideas come together. We were delighted to receive a lovely testimonial from Trine and Ashley “We cannot recommend Melanie and the Bellissimo team highly enough. They are very professional, friendly and efficient. Any couple considering using Bellissimo for their wedding, please do, it was the best decision we made! We had VIP treatment from beginning to end. The attention to detail was invaluable. Mr and Mrs Burn”
A very happy two year Anniversary to Mr and Mrs Burn for July!
