Sumitra and James had quite the day yesterday at the beautiful Gorse Hill in Surrey.

Sumitra had a lovely morning with her girls getting ready in the bridal room. It was one of the most calm and relaxed bridal rooms I’ve ever seen.

They were ready right on time. All looking amazing and by the way, how incredible are those flowers? 

Sumitra made her way to James…

Who was eagerly awaiting his beautiful bride.

And just like that, it was show time. Sumitra made her big entrance and totally knocked James’ socks off!

The ceremony itself was really rather lovely. Short, sweet and all sealed with a big ol’ smooch and a walk back down the aisle to cheers and applause from all of the guests.

Right before the forecast rain arrived, these two were absolutely pelted with confetti by their very excited guests.

And then the rain appeared and did it’s thing, which meant we couldn’t do the couple’s pictures when we would have liked to.
Luckily though, these two were cool about it and we just said that we’d wait for a pause in the rain and pop outside whenever that might be.
It turned out that it was mid way through the wedding breakfast when the rain paused, and yet true to their word, they came and found me and off we went to get some gorgeous photos.

After the delicious food had been eaten, the speeches had been expertly delivered and one or two drinks had been enjoyed, it was time for Sumitra and James to enjoy their first dance together as a married couple.

And then… PARTY TIME!

Right before it was time for me to leave them to it, Sumitra and James came outside with me one last time for a few night time pictures. I particularly like this one.

That’s all for this little preview, folks.

An incredible day for the most wonderful couple. 

I’ll add one or two more pictures from this day to the Facebook and Instagram pages as I edit them, so feel free to follow along and re-live some more beautiful moments.

Huge thanks to all at Gorse Hall for taking such good care of me and for making sure everything ran smoothly.

Thanks too to all of Sumitra and James’ wonderful guests for making me so welcome. I had a blast with you all!

Hands up if you had a great time at Sumitra and James’ wedding! 

I really loved this wedding. Anna and Luke (and all of their guests) just had a blast all day long.
I was laughing along and smiling with them all the entire day.

I arrived at Islington Town Hall a little earlier than I was scheduled to and Luke and his lads weren’t far behind me. 
We decided to use the time we had to get a few shots of Luke and his Groomsmen and the lads were up for having a bit of fun with some of them.
This one was my favourite.

Right before Anna arrived the groomsmen made sure everyone was up in the ceremony room to await her big entrance. Luke looked excited and keen to see her.

He didn’t have to wait very long though, Anna appeared, looking stunning of course, and she knocked Luke’s socks off.

The ceremony itself was lovely. Short and sweet and all sealed with a big kiss. Plus (see pic 3) right where I was stood there was a gold lamp attached to the desk and I decided to use that to reflect the very impressive ceiling into one of the pictures, because…. fun! 🤷‍♂️ 

After all the papers had been signed and everything was official, the very newly weds exited the ceremony to huge cheers and applause from their very excited guests.

While the guests all made their way outside to prepare for a confetti pelting, Anna and Luke spent 10 minutes with me inside the town hall to get some beautiful pictures.

And then it was time for them to receive that aforementioned confetti pelting. Once again, the roar from their guests as these two exited the building was wonderful! 

We all took a short walk to Fredericks for the reception, which was looking incredible.

There was a delicious wedding breakfast and some expertly delivered speeches.

The group shots were as fun and as energy filled as the rest of the day had been.

And the first dance? Well, I’ve seen a lot of first dances, and in terms of crowd participation at least, this one was hands down the best. It was a ‘let’s get this party started’ kind of dance and a room full of guests yelling ’Ohhhh iiiiiiiiiiii - I wanna be with you everywhere’ at the top of their lungs while Anna and Luke bopped around in the middle of it all will live long in the memory. 

And then finally, it was party time! 
I guess I should have known from the minute that Anna made her ceremony entrance to Everlong by the Foo Fighters that was going to be my kind of party!

That’s all for this little preview, folks.

An incredible day for the most wonderful couple. 

I’ll add one or two more pictures from this day to the Facebook and Instagram pages as I edit them, so feel free to follow along and re-live some more beautiful moments.

Huge thanks to all at Islington Town Hall and Frederick’s for taking such good care of me and for making sure everything ran smoothly.

Thanks too to all of Anna and Luke’s wonderful guests for making me so welcome. I had a blast with you all!

Hands up if you had a great time at Anna and Luke’s wedding! 

Well what can I say about these two?
I first met Kate and Andrew at a Wedding Fair at Silvermere around 18 months ago, and since then I’ve gotten to know these two legends really quite well, so I was especially looking forward to this one.

Kate got ready with her girls at the Hilton hotel in Cobham, and they had a lovely morning chatting and laughing and exchanging gifts.

We were all checking the weather forecast like crazy hoping the expected rain wouldn’t arrive, but it did. And it decided to stay all day long.
Kate was an absolute hero though and just shrugged it off and decided to have the best day ever anyway - and she did!

She had arranged for a horse and carriage to take her to her man, and just like Kate herself, the horses also shrugged off the rain like it was nothing!

By this point Andrew, looking sharp as ever, was in the ceremony room excitedly awaiting his beautiful bride.

He didn’t have to wait very long though. Kate was right on time and it’s fair to say she knocked Andrew’s socks off!

The ceremony itself was really rather lovely. Short and very sweet and all sealed with a big ol’ smooch!

When it rains, you have to do group shots indoors, and honestly, it’s not a problem. Whatever the weather, you can still get beautiful group shots - especially at Silvermere.

You can even get pretty epic confetti shots inside too!

And a rainy day doesn’t mean you can’t get stunning couple portraits either, you just need to get a little bit creative, that’s all.

After the delicious food had been eaten, the speeches had been expertly delivered and one or two beverages had been enjoyed, Kate and Andrew cut their wonderful cake and then shared their first dance together as a married couple.

And then… PARTY TIME!

Despite the weather, Kate and Andrew were both up for coming outside with me to grab a few beautiful pictures and again, rain does not stop you getting stunning photos, I promise.

That’s all for this little preview, folks.

An incredible day for the most wonderful couple. 

I’ll add one or two more pictures from this day to the Facebook and Instagram pages as I edit them, so feel free to follow along and re-live some more beautiful moments.

Huge thanks to all at Silvermere for taking such good care of me and for making sure everything ran smoothly.
Special thanks to Abbie, Vickey, Henry and of course, Bob. The absolute dream team!

Thanks too to all of Kate and Andrew’s wonderful guests for making me so welcome. I had a blast with you all!

Hands up if you had a great time at Kate and Andrew’s wedding!
