WORDS & PHOTOS : EMILIE HART
There is something deeply romantic about London in December. The city retreats into itself — softer, quieter, glowing with warm light from the inside out. For Clara and Oliver, who met at a dinner party in Notting Hill and got engaged on a rainy Tuesday in Soho, a winter wedding in the city felt exactly right.
They chose a Georgian townhouse in Marylebone, its rooms filled with trailing eucalyptus, white ranunculus, and the smell of burning candles. Outside, the garden was frosted and still. Clara wore a bias-cut ivory gown with long sleeves, and Oliver wore a perfectly tailored charcoal suit. They danced in the conservatory as snow began to fall, framed by glass and candlelight.
