Loseley Park Wedding Fair - 3rd February 2008

Just to let you know that I will be exhibiting at the Loseley Park wedding fair on Sunday 3rd February.

Loseley has one of the best wedding fairs in the area with a great range of suppliers exhibiting and fashion shows throughout the day in the Great Hall of the house, all set in a beautiful location in the Surrey hills.

If your planning a wedding this year or next it's well worth a visit and I hope to get a chance to meet you there. You can find all the details at Loseley's website.

Sarah & Ian wed in Sunninghill

On a cold but bright winters day, Sarah & Ian were married in St. Michael & All Angels church in Sunninghill before the wedding party made their way to the warmth and fun of a Great Fosters reception in Egham.

Sarah had already spent the morning at Great Fosters getting ready and made the round trip in a beautiful Bentley. After some photographs in the lovely gardens and reception room of the hotel, the newlyweds and their guests enjoyed a reception filled with music, laughter, dancing and fun.

Evening wedding in Compton, Godalming

Victoria & Mark were married in St Nicholas Church in Compton near Godalming. This was a late afternoon, early evening wedding and the weather was not in the best of moods with cold rain and dark skies joining in the celebrations. After a beautiful candle lit service the couple celebrated their new found status at Victoria's parents home where three separate marquee's had been set up - one for the dancing, one for the drinking and one for the eating. Victoria better known as Victoria Hamilton is an actress of some renown and is currently to be found on our TV sets in Lark Rise to Candleford. Mark Bazeley is also a renowned actor who has starred in The Queen, Spooks and The Bourne Ultimatum, he had only flown in off his set abroad the day before the wedding.

This was a beautiful wedding full of the winter elements and full of the joy of celebration, with a brilliant Father of the Brides speech setting the tone, the cake destroying the knife (you'll need to look at the picture below to believe it) and friends and family dancing into the small hours.

A pretty accurate forecast

The cake of steel. Your supposed to break the cake with the ceremony sword not the other way round.

First dance and someone not wanting to miss anything on this day

Caroline & Tim wed in Barnet

Caroline and Tim got married on a beautiful winters day in St John the Baptist Church in Barnet with a reception held a short drive away at Tewin Bury Farm Hotel. With getting ready taking place at two locations, the church being a beautiful and deceptively large building and the reception venue having a stream running through the grounds and around the barn there were plenty of photo opportunities that the guests and bride and groom helped make full use of.

There were lots of nice touches at this wedding with an unusual chocolate cake, a magic show for the kids and a novel guest book come game (I'll feature this in my nice ideas section soon). The lovely couple ended their day dancing to an excellent jazz band.
