Mel & Jeff wed in Devon

On Saturday 28th July I was fortunate enough to be invited to photograph Mel & Jeff's wedding in Crediton, Devon. Traveling down the day before we were delighted to be invited to share the pre-wedding barbecue with the family and friends at Northcote Manor, scene of the following days reception. As Jeff is the brother of Mike, the groom at one of my previous weddings, it was a brilliant opportunity to catch up with some new friends as well as capture all the memories of the special day itself.

The weather was very changeable on the wedding day and although we were lucky enough to have a dry morning and indeed a dry wedding service in the beautiful Crediton Church, once the move was made to the reception the rain had set in for the day. This certainly did not dampen anyones spirits and with the run of Northcote Manor itself the only dull moments were from the clouds in the sky.

Mel & Jeff jetted off for a fabulous well deserved honeymoon in Australia, thank you for your generous hospitality and a really great weekend guys.

It seems you only hate rain as you get older

Maybe I spoke too soon

Who wears the shoes?

A really great speech

Some brave souls out in the evening rain

The real fun begins on the dancefloor
