CREATING BEAUTIFUL SUSTAINABLE WEDDINGS AND EVENTS IN THE EAST MIDLANDS, YORKSHIRE AND BEYOND.

"GLAMOROUS VINTAGE MEETS
Sustainable elegance"
You dream of a wedding set in a beautiful garden or woodland, dancing under the canvas of a tipi surrounded by fairy lights, or inside an ancient barn with flowers and lights hanging from the beams.
Lines of rustic wooden tables decorated with vintage glassware and candlesticks, are filled with locally sourced food and drink.
A bonfire outside keeps everyone warm. Live music and laughter float in the air until the early hours of the morning, when, exhausted but happy, you and your guests meander back to the manor house, stables or glamp site to sleep and dream of the perfect day that was your wedding...
Hey there!
My name is Sam. I started Willow and Rust Weddings after planning my own wedding and realising how harmful to the planet the average wedding actually is. The Wedding Industry globally is huge, and I feel passionately that we must help both couples and suppliers make more eco-conscious choices. I love searching for and using vintage pieces in my styling and I am constantly upcycling and repurposing items to add to my hire collection. All of this together has evolved into my own unique style, ‘Glamorous Vintage meets Sustainable Elegance’.
