Wedding photography Leicester - Alix and Mat are married!

Alix and Mat have know each other half their lives, having met when they were at university. They were married yesterday surrounded by family and friends, including several from their university days, in a lovely ceremony at The City Rooms, Leicester.

At the end of the speeches there was a bit of a family tradition as the newly weds were serenaded by Mat's Uncle Ralph on the ukelele.

Here's a small taster of their special day:
























Many congratulations, Alix and Mat!

Wedding photography Prestwold Hall - Cerys and Tim are married!

Cerys and Tim's wedding today at the magnificent Prestwold Hall was our first there, and what a fabulous wedding venue! A gorgeous ceremony room and beautiful landscaped gardens for photos after the ceremony.

Cerys looked stunning in a very elegant Jenny Packham bridal gown, and Tim, along with his new father-in-law and best man, gave one of the most accomplished speeches that we have heard this year.

After the wedding breakfast we took advantage of the softer light to go round the gardens with Cerys and Tim.

Here's an early taster of their day:




































Many congratulations Mr and Mrs S-B!

Wedding photography Hallaton and Rushton Hall - Katherine and Rob are married!

Katherine and Rob married today in a lovely ceremony at St Michael and All Angels Church, Hallaton, with their reception following at Rushton Hall.

Their guests had travelled for as far away as Syndney, Texas and Michegan, and they were entertained by some eloquent and memorable speeches, which included some interesting photos of Rob during best man James' speech!

We left them just after their dancing feet had come to life. Here's an early taster of their fabulous day:

























Congratulations, Katherine and Rob! Have a wonderful honeymoon, and we'll look forward to catching up with you at the end of the month.

Wedding photography Weekley and Rockingham Forest Hotel - Victoria and Howard are married!

I have known Victoria and Howard for a little while, through our membership of BNI, and I was delighted when they asked us to photograph their wedding.

They were married today at the picturesque St Mary's Church at Weekley, near Kettering, as another glorious day saw a lovely ceremony as Victoria and Howard were married by the very accomodating Reverend Canon Giles Godbar - who, quite by coincidence, married Hollie and Ian yesterday!

Victoria arrived in a beautiful vintage 1928 Citreon, which then took the couple to their wedding reception at Rockingham Forest Hotel. After their wedding breakfast and speeches we disappeared around the hotel with Victoria and Howard for some photos before they were joined by a number of familiar (to me) BNI faces, some I hadn't seen since yesterday's wedding!

Here's an early taster of their happy day:






































Congratulations Victoria and Howard! It was a pleasure to be there to record your special day for you.

Wedding photography Geddington and Dovecote Farm - Hollie and Ian are married!

Hollie and Ian were married on Friday at St Mary Magdalene Church, Geddington, and their reception followed at Dovecote Farm, at nearby Newton.

Hollie arrived at the church in a fabulous horse drawn carriage, courtesy of Townies Carriage Masters, which then took the newly weds on to their reception where their wedding breakfast included enormous portions of pavlova - with lovely fresh strawberries from the farm. Delicious!

Here's a little taster of their big day:
















































And after their wedding breakfast there were a couple of red kites souring above the farm.



Congratulations Hollie and Ian!
