Ali and Andy along with 20 of their closest family members and friends decided to have their small wedding at the Escot House, a large, historic, picturesque home in Devon, England. The venue, also boasting beautiful grounds, was the perfect setting for their wedding day, as the weather was particularly nice for the occasion. English tea and scones were served before the wedding, and after the ceremony, they held a reception with drinks on the lawn outside. Later that evening, they moved to The Pig in Combe to have a meal.
