The wedding, described as “wildflower-themed,” featured vibrant colours and a whimsical atmosphere inspired by English wildflowers and the Glastonbury Festival’s ribbon tower. The picturesque venue, just a short drive from Thompson-Roylance’s hometown, provided a backdrop of grasses, flowers, and even a few curious cows that made their way into the wedding photos.
Adorned with colourful ribbons and blooming flowers, the ceremony aisle led to a pergola where Brewer, in a modified vintage Vera Wang gown, walked down to the sounds of Jeff Buckley’s “Lover, You Should’ve Come Over.” The couple’s unique touches extended to the reception, where each table was named after their favourite David Lynch films, adding a personal and creative flair to the celebration.
Guests enjoyed a culinary feast catered by Pit & Plate, cocktails inspired by David Lynch movies, and two wedding cakes – one real and one surprise fake cake that led to a memorable moment as Thompson-Roylance emerged from it. The newlyweds shared their first dance to Elvis Presley’s “Blue Moon,” followed by a lively dance floor filled with their loved ones.
Brewer and Thompson-Roylance’s love story blossomed against the backdrop of their busy schedules, with Brewer starring in the final season of “The Handmaid’s Tale” and “You.” The couple’s transatlantic relationship required meticulous planning, but their shared love for vibrant celebrations and unique details shone through in every aspect of their wedding.
In the midst of the wedding frenzy, Brewer took a moment to reflect on the journey, sharing their excitement amidst the chaos of coordinating a wedding with two new shows premiering. Their commitment to each other and the joy they found in planning their special day was evident in every carefully crafted detail and heartfelt moment shared with their guests.
The couple’s wedding not only marked the union of two souls in love but also a celebration of friendship and shared experiences. Brewer, who had two of her “Handmaid’s Tale” co-stars by her side as bridesmaids, highlighted the deep connections they had forged beyond the screen, creating a day filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories.
Madeline Brewer and Jack Thompson-Roylance’s wedding was a testament to their vibrant personalities, creativity, and commitment to each other. As they begin this new chapter together, their unique love story serves as an inspiration for others seeking to infuse their special day with personal touches and colourful moments that reflect their essence.
