My enforced wedding sabbatical is killing me whilst my new knee settles in.  Although I’m being a good girl and doing as my wonderful physio Anna says I’ve been having massive wedding withdrawal symptoms. When I decided to have the op done Simon and I made the decision not to book any weddings in between January and April but there was one wedding that we couldn’t resist and that we had planned for Simon to do on his own.  However, after nagging Anna (the wonderful physio) half to death she allowed me to go for at least part of the day as long as I promised to do lots of sitting down in between all the important bits and I am soooooooo glad that she did. This gorgeous little piece of wedding loveliness is the result. 

Anna is the gorgeous bride and Gary the ever so dapper groom. They were married in a very moving ceremony at Fulwood Church and held their reception at the ever beautiful Hassop Hall in Derbyshire. Anna looked truly stunning in her beautiful lace gown, her Flo & Percy headdress was to die for and the bridesmaids looked fab in cerise. Gary treated himself to a bit of bespoke tailoring and had his suit made at Andrew Mussons in Lincoln, it was fantastic and Simon won’t rest until he has one too! 

Anna and Gary’s very good friend is Jodi Hinds a leading Sheffield Wedding Photographer. Naturally they wanted her to be a guest and not ‘on duty’ and Jodi was very kind in recommending them to us – thank you Jodi. 

We had a lovely time with you guys and wish you both all the love and happiness in the world.

I love winter weddings, there’s just something so incredibly romantic about them.  I love military weddings, there’s just something so incredibly romantic about those too. There we have it, two of my favorite types of weddings amid my favorite type of weather – I just LOVE the snow – happy bunny you’d think?

Oh no, I missed the whole darn thing. One week post op I was stuck at home feeling totally miserable and sorry for myself knowing I was missing out on such a gorgeous wedding. Simon showed me up good and proper too by handling the whole thing perfectly well on his own too, which of course I knew he would, which didn’t help my mood!

Victoria and Scottie are such a fab couple and I’m just so sorry to have missed it all.

Ok so think Winter Wonderland, Narnia, beautiful people, A.M.A.Z.I.N.G details, freezing cold weather, GORGEOUS bride and groom and you have the fabulous wedding of Lucinda and Oliver which we were lucky enough to photograph just before Christmas.  We have also photographed Lucinda’s twin sister Annabel and older sister Clare’s weddings so we were very excited to be involved in this wedding too. It was my last wedding before going in for my knee op and I was hoping for a good ‘do’. Mrs H surpassed herself and the whole thing was spectacular.  It was just magical.

Lucinda is a hat designer and designed and made all of the bridesmaid’s head-dresses, her mum’s headpiece and I have no doubt many of the guests’ too! She makes some of the most amazing fascinators I’ve ever seen, truly gorgeous. Check her out at http://www.hostiehats.co.uk/
