Sandie and Simon
“As soon as we walked through the door, we ‘knew’”
“
Ours is an old-fashioned tale
full of love and romance, in which two
friends fall in love and have a wedding
that was a true expression of our
devotion to each other.
Simon and I were both in our midthirties when we met at a business
networking event. We both had careers
in media arts, we instantly had a
connection and over the course of a year
or so became very good friends...
Three years later we were married at our
dream location, Boscundle Manor.
We had looked at many venues closer to
home, currently Hampshire, but hadn’t
found what we were looking for. Whilst
vsiting family in Cornwall, we came
across an advertisement for Boscundle
Manor in a local brochure and thought
it was worth a visit. As soon as we
walked through the door, we ‘knew’! It
felt just like ‘coming home’ and David
and Sharon made us feel as welcome as
family, it couldn’t have felt more “right.”
We were looking for a venue that exuded
style, yet in a relaxed environment, with
that touch of luxury that it is understated
but reinforced by so many little extras
that you might not notice at first glance,
e.g. the line of Hunter Wellies by the
door, in all sizes, ready for guests to go
walking in all weathers, or the
Molten Brown toiletries in all the rooms.
Small enough to feel intimate, yet big
enough to handle our size of wedding
(45 guests), we were able to take over
the whole hotel for the weekend, from
afternoon tea upon our arrival on the
Friday, to a group breakfast the day after
the ceremony. This enabled our special
event to last longer than the usual
afternoon and evening, and lessened the
feeling of it all being over so soon.
“Sharon was amazing in coordinating
all of the details for the wedding”
Sharon was amazing in coordinating
all of the details for the wedding,
from menu choices down to flowers
and personalised confetti cones. We
were very reassured by her previous
experience in planning many large
events, both in Cornwall and in London
and she was, indeed, a treasure;
taking away any worries that may have
occurred on the day.
We also chose to use David’s skills
as a photographer (David Parker
Photography). Both of us being
photographers, we were very fussy when
it came to deciding who to choose for
our Wedding. David has a great “eye”
for finding the truth in any photo, and
certainly managed to capture our very
real emotions on the day.
Overall, our wedding was intimate,
stylish and luxurious, with the utmost
care given to every detail and we will
always be grateful to David and Sharon
for creating our wedding and welcoming
us “Home” to Boscundle Manor.

Karen and Tom
Formerly from Fowey, Tom is 28 and
now lives and works in St Austell as
a mortgage broker, Karen is 27, and
works in St Austell as an HR Officer.
“
Tom and I have known each
other since secondary school and
share the same circles of friends,
but there was never any romantic
interest for either of us until five
and half years ago. At Christmas
2007, we started chatting during a
night out and never looked back.
Something which wasn’t there
before was suddenly very much
there for both of us, and that was it!
Tom proposed to me on Christmas
Eve 2010, when I was in my pyjamas
eating cheese and pickles. Not at
all glamorous on my part, but so
much more exciting because it
wasn’t expected or clichéd at all.
We had looked at one or two
venues before falling in love with
Boscundle. I think once you’ve been
to Boscundle, nothing else comes
close. I have quite a lot of family
who live in London, and having
exclusive use of the hotel for the
weekend really appealed to us.
Tom has a younger brother, Rich,
who is currently living the dream in
Australia. Rich was Tom’s best man
and came back for the wedding and
Tom’s stag do in Marbella!
We opted for 16th June 2012, so we
had 18 months to plan everything
with the help of Sharon at
Boscundle. We particularly like the
fact that we could choose our menu
from scratch - for example, guests
could choose from scallops, goats’
cheese or asparagus with duck egg
for starter and lamb rump, fillet
steak or chicken for main - all of
our favourite foods!
Both families descended upon
Boscundle on Friday afternoon and
had cream teas together whilst
catching up. The children loved it,
they were free to run about and use
the swimming pool and it really
felt like home. On the Friday night,
we all had a deluxe BBQ together
before the men went to the pub
to watch the football. The women
stayed at the hotel and drank
cocktails and coffee.
On Saturday morning, breakfast
was brought up to our room for
Mum and I before my hairdresser
arrived. Tom had breakfast with
everyone else, then went to the hottub with his best man and ushers to
drink champagne. Everything was
very relaxed!
We were married on the lawn under
the gazebo which was decorated
with bright pink, purple and green
flowers and foliage by Wedding
Flowers Cornwall (Anna Sawle).
The rain stayed away long enough
for us to get married, drink Pimms
and eat canapés on the lawn and
have some amazing photos taken
outside by Pervaiz Shah of Shah
Photography, before sitting down
to an amazing wedding breakfast.
Our cake was a 3 tier fruit, lemon
and chocolate sensation made
by a family friend as a wedding
gift. We had a local children’s
entertainer come to Boscundle for
an hour during the speeches, so
the children weren’t bored and the
parents weren’t stressed!
In the evening, guests were
served a variety of treats such as
meatballs, pasties and chicken
satay skewers before dancing to
Risky Business, the Motown / funk
band we hired for the evening.
“I think once you’ve been to
Boscundle, nothing else comes close”
On the Sunday, all hotel guests (our
families) had a lovely breakfast in
the conservatory and talked about
the day’s events.
What stands out the most for me,
is the fact that we didn’t have to
worry about a single thing over
the whole weekend. Sharon and
David managed everything like a
military operation, everything ran
so smoothly and all of our guests
had an amazing time. Also having
exclusive use of the hotel meant
everyone felt incredibly relaxed.
Having Friday, Saturday and Sunday
at the hotel meant our ‘special
day’ was more like a ‘special long
weekend’!

“Everything we had ever
dreamed it would be”
Sophie and Matt
Sophie is a family support worker
for families with needs and
disadvantaged and abused children.
Matt is currently studying a PHD
molecular microbiology, and works
in sales for a biotech company, they
currently live in Hertfordshire, but
are in the process of moving
to Essex.
“
We met through a mutual
friend, one of the ushers and were
good friends for a month which then
progressed to be in a relationship
I was 18 years and Matt 19 and I
simply thought Matt was the best
person I’d ever met, and Matt
thought I was gorgeous.
For the first 3 years we were in a
long distance relationship due to
Matt studying away which I found
very difficult, missing Matt everyday.
We spent every possible moment
together which was very special.
Matt came home and we moved
in together, and I had never been
happier.
We knew marriage was on the cards,
and were very open in making our
plans together, we both knew we
would get married in Cornwall. Matt
proposed to me on Bedruthen Steps,
Carmewas Beach. The first time we
had visited, we had thought “This
is our beach” and this time Matt
went down on one knee, told me
how much he loved me and how he
wanted to be with me forever. It was
a beautiful sunny warm day, and our
wedding day was exactly the same 2 years later on the very same date
and 9 years to the day from our very
first kiss. Perfect.
I had researched wedding venues
online, and as we both love Cornwall,
visiting every year, it was always
going to be our location of choice. I
saw photos of Boscundle, and it just
looked so homely and not in the least
bit corporate. We visited Boscundle
the day after we became engaged,
and loved it at first sight. Matt said
“this is it, this is the one.” We loved
that we could have what ever we
wanted, Sharon and David were
open to everything, they were also
very excited with our wedding plans.
Seamless perfection!
Our wedding was themed around
Cornwall and the seaside, from the
seaside bucket favours filled with
Cornish fudge and candy rock to an
old fashioned ice cream van serving
homemade ice creams.
We are so so happy with how our
wedding weekend turned out. We
started Friday with a BBQ and drinks
with guests who were staying at
Boscundle to get the party started.
We ended the night in the hot tub
with our ushers, best man, chief
bridesmaid and bridesmaids. All had
champagne, lots of laughter. Matt
and I said our goodbyes, boys stayed
in the hot tub while girls got their
beauty sleep!
Our three bridesmaids, my mum and
I got ready in the bridal suite. It was
a lovely, chilled and fun morning.
Matt got ready with the boys;
enjoying beers in the sunshine.
The ceremony was perfect, we both
forgot that we were in front of our 75
guests, lost in each others eyes as
we declared our love for each other.
We couldn’t stop smiling and giggling
with pure joy.
We had photos at Charlestown by the
tall ships, it was so much fun. Our
photographers ‘Kiss Photography’
were amazing to be with. We felt that
we were hanging out with friends.
They put so much imagination into
our photos.
We returned to Boscundle for a
reception meal and speeches,
followed by live music and the disco
and we didn’t stop dancing all night.
We had a spectacular firework
display in the evening all
choreographed to “Don’t Stop
Me Now” by Queen. It was simply
fantastic...
And that perfectly sums up
Boscundle Manor as a wedding
venue. Sharon and David helped
create a wedding for us which was
everything we had ever dreamed it
would be.

“Our day was perfect,
from beginning to end’”
Lindsey and Matt
Matt is a mechanic and a retained
fire fighter. Lindsey is a teacher. They
were born in Cornwall and have grown
up there, enjoying the countryside
and coast, as well as the cinema,
going to the beach and, of course, the
compulsory hobby of surfing.
“
I would like to say our story was
love at first sight but only on my part
as Matt had a girlfriend. We became
friends for a while but later lost
touch until we were reunited by fate
a few years later when ours eyes met
across a crowded bar and that was the
beginning. I was 17 and Matt was 18 at
the time.
Matt proposed, at Porth Beach in
Newquay. on our ten- year anniversary
of being together, after asking
permission from my Dad. He was
hoping for a glorious sunny day but
as we well know, in Cornwall these
are very far and few between so we
got bustled and blown along the
beach until Matt pulled me to one
side (sheltered by rocks so I could
actually hear him) and got down
on one knee; this was the first and
probably the last time I have actually
seen Matt nervous. I, of course, said
yes (especially after having to wait 10
years) and the planning commenced.
We chose Boscundle Manor after
falling in love with it at first sight
- both of us this time! From the
moment we stepped inside the door
we knew it was right for us, it had an
old country house charm and we loved
the entrance with the wellie boots
and the large open fire in the lounge.
Sharon certainly had a task on her
hands getting us organised as we are
both quite laid back and are in the
habit of leaving everything to the last
minute but she did a fantastic job!
On the wedding day, the girls and
I got ready out at my Dad’s house,
very close to Boconnoc Church, and
Matt got ready at our house. He
arrived in style at the Church in a VW
Camper called ‘Lulu’ from Strawberry
Leisure. Pelynt Male Voice Choir
sang Christmas carols in the Church
to greet guests as they arrived. The
camper then collected my Dad, the
bridesmaids and I - and we arrived
fashionably late at the Church. Before
the traditional wedding march began
the choir sang ‘Walking in a Winter
Wonderland’ which is a particular
favourite of mine. During the signing
of the registers our guests were
encouraged to get involved by singing
‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’. Matt
and I rode in the camper to Boscundle
where we were greeted by glasses of
warm winter pimms and mulled wine.
Our wedding breakfast was held in a
marquee, we opted for an informal
arrangement with tables named after
the nine reindeers and the guests
names being written as a ‘naughty’
and ‘nice’ list. Sparklers were a big hit
with all ages and the food was perfect.
We were served pâté / soup to start,
followed by fillet steak which was
carved by a nominated carver on each
table and topped off with a chocolate
fondue. Everyone was delighted with
the food and it is very hard to please
a room filled with several farming
families who love their food and plenty
of it! The food is still a talking point to
date!
Our evening guests increased the
numbers to 130 and the party was
started off by our joint wedding
speech, the cutting of the cake and
the throwing of the bouquet which
my sister Mel caught (and yes, she
is now engaged to be married next
year!). Geoff Gillet was our DJ during
the evening and guests were asked for
song requests on the invitations. This
included some interesting choices
such as ‘Combine Harvester’ by The
Wurzels and ‘Barbie Girl’ by Aqua. The
guests enjoyed a sumptuous Cornish
style buffet in the evening which
included mussels, pasties and scones
with jam and cream. All guests who
stayed at Boscundle had an equally
impressive breakfast served the next
day in the conservatory and then
enjoyed a dip in the pool and hot tub.
We look back at our wedding day with
great fondness and wouldn’t have
changed a single thing. Our day was
perfect from beginning to end!

Frances and Adam
Frances and Adam got married at
Boscundle Manor in June, 2012. They
had a fun, fresh green apple theme
that followed right through the day,
from apple place names to the cider
toast. With just over 50 guests for
the day and only an extra 20 for
Kayleigh and Matt
the evening, it was small enough
to be personal but large enough to
ensure a great party atmosphere.
The adults were spoilt with a choice
of fillet steak, duck or lamb whilst
the younger guests were kept happy
with a ballon entertainer and party
food just for them. The evening was
spent enjoying pork and crackling
with apple sauce, and dancing before
finally surprising the guests with a
group sky lantern release into
the night.
Their wedding featured:
• 54 day guests, +20 evening guests
• 2 nights exclusive use
• All rooms included
• Wedding Breakfast - Scallops,
Charcuterie, Goat’s cheese, Fillet,

totally unique and personal to
them. They were married in May,
2012 at a local church, then arrived
from the ceremony, to an informal
gathering of their closest friends and
relatives at the gorgeous Boscundle
Manor. Relaxed mingling followed
with a delicious finger buffet being
served, including mini yorkshire
puddings and strawberries dipped in
chocolate, whilst guests roamed the
gardens and the house, completely
stress free, sipping Pimm’s and
home made lemonade. Then it was
all change, as the happy couple and
the guests boarded minibuses and
headed off to party the night away at
the local rugby club.

It all started with planning my own, quite
a few years ago now, and I dreamed of
owning my own wedding venue, at the time
I used to travel up to London and arranged
many big budget events at The Dorchester,
Park Lane. Eleven years ago, my husband
David and I bought Boscundle Manor,
having lived next door for many years,
where I would peer through the fence and
see what famous people I could spot.
Years later and we have put our hearts
into creating the unique and beautiful
Boscundle Manor, which we believe to be
the most romantic and luxurious Wedding
Venue in Cornwall. We offer the complete
package and can help bring your dream to
life, starting with the hen party, complete
with luxurious spa treatments for you,
your friends and family, right through to
the big day itself. We truly believe that as a
bride you should relax and enjoy your day
and to ensure things start off well we have
wonderful make up and hair stylists on
standby, armed with the latest tools of the
trade, ready to make you look so beautiful
that your groom’s heart will melt as he
watches you walk to meet him.

I continue to love each and every wedding,
and embrace new styles, choices and the
fact that every wedding is as unique and as
individual as you are, because reflecting
your style and individual personalities is of
the utmost importance.
I truly believe a wedding co-ordinator
assists, but does not take over, as this
would dilute your style on the day.
My top tips are stay true to yourselves
and enjoy the planning process whilst
remaining focussed on what needs to
be done at certain times by using our
countdown planner, which will help keep
your mind clear. Remember, stay calm
and don’t panic!
Buy a few good quality magazines such as
WED magazine, check out TV shows such
as Wedding TV and create a mood board,
scrap book or use Pinterest to pull your
style ideas together.
Attention to the little details will set your
wedding apart, thoughtfulness goes a long
way and not necessarily the amount of
money you spend, we are happy to include
the personal touches that make your day
truly your own. Do however, put your main
budget into the food for the day, as the one
thing your guests will remember about
your wedding is the food, and we want that
to be for all the right reasons including
how fantastic it was!
This has been all about us and now we
want to hear about you! So congratulations
on your engagement, I hope you like our
wonderful wedding brochure and I can’t
wait to hear about your wedding plans.
