Rachel & Matt: Spring Outdoor Wedding at The Paper Mill, Kent

Rachel & Matt’s day was just magical from start to finish, with The Paper Mill in Kent as the backdrop for their day. Set in the Kent countryside, their ceremony was in a little woodland clearing with paper lanterns hanging from the trees and guests sat on hay bales.

They chose the perfect time of year for their day with the woodland in full bloom with wild garlic and bluebells everywhere you looked! Rachel was radiant in her Pronovias lace dress and flower crown, carrying a bouquet of seasonal blooms. Her bridesmaids accompanied her in pretty pink dresses embroidered with flowers, perfect for a Spring day.

After a joyful ceremony of personal vows and guests singing songs, the celebrations kicked off with a flurry of confetti. Everyone headed up the hill to a rustic little barn where they held a lively ceilidh which got everyone up and dancing.

Dinner was a relaxed affair with delicious pie and mash served for the wedding breakfast, followed by fantastic speeches that had everyone laughing. The rain then cleared to a vibrant golden hour, so we whisked Rachel and Matt away for photos in the woodland amongst the bluebells.

More dancing awaited as a band set up in the barn for the evening celebrations. And for a truly unforgettable end to the evening, fire spinners put on a fantastic display for everyone. Absolutely amazing!

Thank you Rachel & Matt for asking us to capture your incredible day! We loved spending time with you both and your day is one we’ll always remember.

Thank you for taking the most beautiful photos of our wedding. Every picture is amazing and together they capture all we wanted to showcase of our day. Thank you for being so enthusiastic from beginning to end - this enthusiasm and genuine love of what you do shows in each and every picture.

It really was more like having another friend at a wedding and you really put both of us at ease. We most definitely made the right decision!
