Welcome to the Wedding of Elliot and Laura at Garth Barns in Llanidloes, Powys.

Nestled in the rolling hills of Llanidloes, Powys, Garth Barns and Country House provided the most breathtaking setting for Laura and Elliot’s wedding—a celebration that perfectly balanced rustic charm with heartfelt intimacy.

Laura and Elliot put their personal touch on every detail of the day, planning much of the wedding themselves. Their hands-on approach gave the entire celebration a warmth and authenticity that made it truly special.

Though the weather threatened to play its part, the couple held firm in their wish for an outdoor ceremony—and it was a decision that paid off. Beneath soft autumn light and surrounded by sweeping Welsh countryside, guests gathered for a ceremony that was both personal and deeply moving.

Sian Allen, their celebrant, brought a unique and thoughtful energy to the ceremony, weaving in the couple’s story with sincerity and grace. One particularly touching moment came as the wedding rings were passed among the guests, allowing each person to offer a quiet blessing or thought for Laura and Elliot before they exchanged vows. Pianist Robbie Roberts provided a beautiful soundtrack, adding even more emotion to an already heartfelt moment.

Shortly after the ceremony, the skies opened—but even a downpour couldn’t dampen the spirits. Guests moved seamlessly into the marquee, where the celebrations continued in full swing. Incredible food, laughter, and dancing filled the space, with Fourphit Party Band providing the perfect soundtrack to an unforgettable evening.

Laura and Elliot’s day was a testament to trusting your instincts, leaning into the beauty of the season, and celebrating love with those who matter most. It was a joy to be a part of.
