Real Wedding at The Perch Oxford

Adam and Jo met at Truck Festival through mutual friends and fell in love.  

They got married at The Oxford Town Hall, only inviting close friends and family.  Everyone then walked through the city down towards The Folly Pub for a few drinks before taking a boat up the river to The Perch, where they were greeted and whooped by the rest of their guests.

Reception at The Perch Oxford Wedding

The Perch has such a friendly laid back vibe, and their signature authentic feast will seriously blow your mind!!  

Adam and Jo hired the most unusual side entertainments: a pinball machine and fortune telling machine! I mean, come one!! Not one of their guests were expecting that! Being such big music fans, they found a gypsy jazz band for some afternoon tunes and a rockabilly band for dancing in the evening.

The great thing about this wedding is the relaxed feeling it had.  Not only in the details, but in Adam and Jo’s attitude, and they chose to have The Perch Oxford Wedding venue for that exact reason.
