The priory, the light, the lace. A still moment wr The priory, the light, the lace.
A still moment wrapped in history, softness, and shadow.

This elopement editorial at Bilsington Priory speaks in whispers, of candlelight, craftsmanship, and the quiet intimacy only a place like this can hold.

Captured so beautifully by @meghanhopephotography and styled with intention by @houseofmimifleur, this is modern romance woven through heritage walls.

A perfectly chilled glass awaits at the clubhouse.

At E-Lope, we do things differently.
Because who says “I do” can’t come with a Guinness and a view?

If you’d rather skip the fuss, tie the knot in style, and toast to forever with your favourite drink in hand, let’s talk.

Private. Luxurious. Effortless. Weddings at The Cave, reimagined for couples who know what they want.
