Jess and Deane were married at The Barnyard in Upchurch, celebrating their day in a relaxed countryside setting with an outdoor ceremony and rustic barn reception.
Jess arrived at the venue early in the morning to begin preparations, with Deane arriving at 12.30pm ahead of the ceremony. Guests gathered for the 2.00pm outdoor ceremony, followed by a confetti moment immediately afterwards.
Before the ceremony, Jess shared a first look with her dad, seeing her in her dress for the first time – a quiet and emotional moment that set the tone for the day.
After the ceremony, guests enjoyed drinks and time together at the venue before the wedding breakfast at 4.15pm. Speeches took place after food at around 6.00pm, with words from Jess’s dad, Deane, and the best man.
The evening celebrations began with the cake cutting at 7.30pm, followed by Jess and Deane’s first dance at 7.45pm. A father and daughter dance took place shortly after, before the band, The Redfords, took over and filled the dancefloor.
It was a relaxed and joyful Kent wedding day, full of personal moments and easy-going celebrations.
