Could this groom's 1971 purple velvet suit BE any more perfect? (Yes, but only if you add a llama)

Simon and Sarah said they wanted "an old, historic church" for their wedding in South Wales, UK. I suppose a medieval priory from the late 11th century works. After the couple said their vows, they stole away for an ethereal photoshoot in an overgrown field (I actually sighed out loud at one particular photo of Sarah sitting in the window of a church ruin).

Then it was off to a reception on a llama and cider farm! Simon and Sarah arrived in style in a vintage Volkswagen beetle, complete with lace trim on the hood (er, bonnet?). Make sure to appreciate the abundant DIY-ness of the reception! Sarah worked late nights to make that bunting happen, and the couple utilized dumped floor boards and doors for a rustic backdrop to their cake.

But. What you're probably going to want to take the most time ogling is Simon's suit. Check it out, people - a double-breasted, purple velvet suit, complete with zebra-striped buttons. Simon scored the handmade suit from a vintage thrift shop called Browsers in Cheltenham. How. Perfect. Is. that?!
