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.

We had an amazing day on Saturday in Cheshire with Louisa and Nick – just one word sums it up – gorgeous – simply gorgeous!  Pronovias gown, Louboutin shoes, absolutely beautiful bride, handsome (and funny) groom, gorgeous bridesmaids, perfect weather, fantastic guests. Need I go on?  We loved every minute of it. They were married in a lovely church and followed with a fabulous drinks reception and wedding breakfast at Mere Golf and Country Club. Here a some of my favorite images from the day (including one which is in twice but for the life of me I can’t work out how to remove it, luckily Louisa is beautiful to look at so it’s no chore!).

I know of many brides who marry in high summer because they desperately want the very temperamental British weather to be at its best. Here’s a tip …… marry in the Autumn. The weather has been consistently good in September and October over the last few years and last Saturday was really no exception. With November within a hairs breadth the temperatures were in the late sixties. The glorious setting of Richmond, overlooking the Thames was just gorgeous and a perfect location for this fantastic couple. We loved them and had a brilliant time with them and all of their guests. Michelle and Jo win the prize this year for giggliest bridesmaids – hilarious!

Well we were recently off down to Brentwood in Essex for the wedding of the fabulous Sandy and Simon. We had really been looking forward to it as we had known them as guests from a previous wedding of ours and had fallen in love with them, they are just so full of life and spirit and so much fun we knew we were going to have a great time with them. We certainly did, the whole day was just fabulous. They were married in Brentwood Cathedral which is such a magnificent place and then followed this with a reception at the brilliantly run Leez Priory. The day ran like clockwork, thanks to Suzy who looked after us that day, the weather was gorgeous and the guests were brilliant. We LOVE our job!!

 Saturday took us to Chatsworth House for the very romantic wedding of Carol and Darren, an amazing couple whose love for each other was evident for all to see. They live in the USA but had fallen in love with the idea of marrying at Chatsworth House and had planned the whole wedding from 3,000 miles away in Massachusetts – quite a feat! The romantic ceremony was  in the beautiful church at Edensor on the Chatsworth Estate. Carol was a dream bride to photograph, boy could she ‘work it’ – totally amazing!  We absolutely loved our day with them and their lovely families – I completely fell in love with Agnesa, Carol’s grandmother, who was totally adorable and very, very beautiful. Here are some of my favorite images from the day.

 

We also filmed the wedding and we are busy working on the edit for that so that they can play it at the reception for all of their friends and family in Boston. Look out for it here soon – if you don’t want to miss it then subscribe to the blog (on the botton above) and you will be notified when its here for you to see..
