Kate & Mark at Our Lady's and Englemere

I'm a little bit behind on my wedding updates as you'll see from this late September gorgeous warm sunshine bathed wedding. A far cry from our cold dark Novembers. Kate & Mark were married in West Byfleet in Our Lady's Church, a lovely church with a huge stained glass window and skylights to let in lots of natural light, always a bonus. After the service we all set off to Englemere in Ascot, the bride and groom leading the way in a soft top bug followed by a campervan full of bridesmaids and a stretch bug full of groomsmen.

Once at the reception everyone enjoyed the lovely grounds and sunshine and the exclusive use of the building too. Fun games were out for the kids and maybe the odd grown up for good measure and the party went on till the small hours.

Friday's Wedding

Over the weekend I shot the lovely wedding of Louisa & Craig at St John Baptist Church in West Byfleet with their reception held at The Berystede Hotel in Ascot. We got lucky with the weather with no rain and a huge softbox of clouds in the sky. Their full wedding story will follow shortly and look out for the details of the first dance as another of my couples went for something a bit special to kick off the night with. Here's Louisa's gorgeous dress.

Vikky & Duncan at Oakley Court

On a beautiful sunny day, the lovely Vikky and Duncan tied the knot at Stanwell Village Church with a reception held at Oakley Court. After the service we stopped off at Windsor's long walk for some extra pictures and then spent the rest of the day enjoying the grounds and hospitality of Oakley Court. With sunshine, fun guests and a very happy bride and groom this was a wedding filled with photo opportunities.

The lovely Taplow House Hotel recently hosted the beautiful wedding celebration of Jemma and Mark. Although the weather wasn't at it's kindest with some pretty heavy showers throughout, the couple, their family and guests all helped make this a very special wedding day.
