Victoria and Johnny&rsquo;s love story started by the sea, and their mutual love of the Cornish coast set the tone for a glorious beach wedding. &ldquo;We met at a surf competition on Porthmeor Beach,&rdquo; says Victoria. &ldquo;Johnny was competing and I was photographing the event.&rdquo; Ten years later, Johnny proposed in the same spot by planting a message in a bottle in the sand for Victoria to find. So, when it came to choosing where to say their &ldquo;I dos&rdquo; it was no surprise that these seaside sweethearts chose the quirky and completely private Porth-en Alls House on the Cornish cliffs, with an ocean-view walled garden for a dreamy al fresco ceremony. &ldquo;We&rsquo;d always envisioned getting married outdoors by the sea as we have both spent our lives by it or in it!&rdquo; says Victoria.With the venue booked, the couple drew on their other great love &ndash; travelling the world &ndash; for their big-day theme. &ldquo;We have been to Morocco and Bali a lot and just love all the deep-jewel colour tones they use in everything there,&rdquo; says Victoria, who visited&nbsp;car-boot sales and charity shops as well as making many of the details herself to create a standout bohemian look without blowing the budget. Working to a gold, mustard, red and purple colour palette, this creative bride designed the invitations using mustard-coloured felt, feathers and dream catchers. This was just a taste of the pretty DIY touches to come for their guests, though. Victoria also bought Indian mandala fabric for tablecloths, filled a treasure chest with bottles of rum and shot glasses, displayed Johnny&rsquo;s guitar case as a wedding-card box, and made more dream catchers, which she attached to a Moroccan canvas for the table plan. For their favours, the couple took inspiration from their engagement by buying small, corked glass bottles, which they filled with a personal note to each of their 55 guests.<img src="http://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/8822/210395/58b143bc8aef6/1488012001_loc.jpg"" owidth=600 oheight=863" />Against this exotic backdrop, guests enjoyed the ultimate country-house meets-beach party. There were two bands: a duo of banjo and accordion before and after the ceremony, and an Irish punk band in the evening. A friend played the grand piano during tea and coffee, and guests enjoyed a feast of Cornish cheese and meats followed by slow-roasted lamb in Moroccan spices, before dancing the night away.
