A Mona Farm First
Yuliya & James’ wedding holds a special place in the story of Mona Farm as its first-ever cocktail-style celebration.
Set across the estate’s sculpted gardens and open countryside, their ceremony and post-ceremony unfolded outdoors in a natural, unforced rhythm, with guests gathering and lingering as the afternoon light softened across the grounds.
As the evening approached, the celebration moved into the marquee, where the tone shifted into a relaxed cocktail reception. Live food stations, thoughtful styling, and a sense of easy movement created a warm, social atmosphere, reflecting the ease of the day as it unfolded across the estate. Later, a surprise film projected across linen quietly replayed the day in real time - drawing guests back into the emotion and joy of the moments just lived.
A considered, contemporary expression of a wedding at Mona Farm - relaxed, generous, and entirely their own.
