Well, the wedding day of one of my favorite families arrived and I was incredibly excited about it. I expected relaxed glamour and I got it in bucket loads. Honestly this family are just so COOOL ! Melissa is a superwoman and is the only bride I have ever known who found the time to prepare lunch for 25 as well as play a piece on the piano amidst all the preparations!
All of the family prepared together at their amazing home and then travelled to the gorgeous venue – Staunton Harold Hall – on their very own bus (yes they have a bus!) to spend time with their guests before they married.
The civil ceremony was both moving and hilarious in turn, with the children reading and the best man presenting the rings to Andy still wrapped up in bags and boxes! They followed with a blessing in the beautiful church on the Estate.
Then it was time to celebrate, the champagne flowed, and I mean REALLY flowed, the atmosphere was fabulous and everyone laughed and ate and drank and danced and it was just ….. well, just perfection!
We were joined in the morning by the extremely talented portrait photographer Jennifer Clare who introduced us to Melissa and Andy and without whom we wouldn’t have got to photograph this amazing day so thank you Jen!
