Beverley & Ron wed in Hotel du Vin, Henley

Beverley and Ron were married in the beautiful town of Henley at the Hotel Du Vin by the river. The weather was kind which allowed a couple of trips down to the Thames for some lovely family shots during the course of the day. With Beverley getting ready at the Hotel in a room which had a bathroom that had to be seen to be believed (enormous) there was plenty of time to capture all the preparations and all the guests arriving too. The service was a very intimate candlelit occasion and was followed by a lovely meal and jukebox lead party into the early hours.

Karen and Richard got ready at the Threadneedles Hotel in London before separately making their way to the famous Marylebone Registry Office, Westminster. After an intimate service in the blue marriage room we shot some pictures on the beautiful steps and then the wedding party made their way across London to celebrate the wedding with a reception held at The Ivy restaurant.

Kate & Dan wed in Puttenham, Buckinghamshire

On 29th September, Kate & Dan were married in St Mary's, a beautiful small local church in the village of Puttenham, Bucks. This was then followed by a marquee reception in the spacious garden of Kate's parents house. A very personal and emotional service held in the beautiful church gave way to a very enjoyable reception with games and dancing into the night. This was a wedding with the personal touch allowing the lovely couple to relax and enjoy their special day to it's fullest.
