Beth & Shane: Rustic Wedding at The Barns at Hunsbury Hill, Northampton

If I had to choose one wedding that made me tear up the most it would probably be this one! Together since they were at school, Beth & Shane got married on a sunny August after 10 years together.

Their day stated with a lovely church ceremony in Great Doddington, with tears before it even began as beautiful Beth walked down the aisle, wowing in her Ellis Bridals dress. The photo of them both tearing up as she arrived at the end of the aisle has got to be one of my favourites of the whole year! 

I love how detail-driven Beth was in planning her wedding décor – she is a girl after my own heart! With a mix of DIY items and hire from my favourite lady Gemma at The White Emporium, the Barns at Hunsbury Hill was filled with rustic gorgeousness from top to toe. And my favourite bit: space hoppers on the lawn!

Their wedding breakfast was a classic english roast with a twist: friends and family carving it themselves at the tables, which was an absolute hit with their guests. 

That evening we were treated to an incredible golden hour before the sun set and their first dance began. They surprised their parents by playing their first dance songs, which was a really lovely touch that I’ve never seen before in all the weddings I’ve photographed!

Ceremony Venue: St Nicholas, Great Doddington
Reception Venue: The Barns at Hunsbury Hill
Venue Style & Hire: The White Emporium
Dress: Ellis Bridals from Fairytale Weddings
Shoes: Rachel Simpson
Suit: Suitors

Our wedding day was genuinely the best day of our lives and being able to re-live it through the photos has been amazing. It was honestly an absolute pleasure to have you as our wedding photographer - it was simply one of the best decisions we made and we are over the moon with the photos! So thank you again, you really are such a talented lady.

Lizzy & John: Summer Marquee Wedding at Dunstall Lodge Farm

If I had to describe Lizzy & John’s day in three words I’d simply have to say: so much joy. I felt so welcomed into her parents home in the morning and their entire day was non-stop fun from start to finish. 

Lizzie’s bridal look was beautiful with her lace dress and bouquet of greenery, pink and peach, but added a little funky edge with a gorgeous headpiece and awesome silver cowboy boots!

They held their wedding at a family friends’ farm, with their ceremony taking place in the courtyard, officiated by the lovely Jo at My Perfect Ceremony under an arch of greenery. Lizzy beamed as she walked down the aisle with her dad, and her and John’s ridiculously cute son made an excellent ring bearer! There wasn’t a dry eye as her two bridesmaids gave readings, and they left under a tunnel of confetti with bubbles for the kids. So much fun!

Everyone enjoyed a buffet wedding breakfast surrounded by rustic decoration of pompoms, jam jar flowers and fairy lights. The best part about the farm location of their day was the almost unlimited selection of backdrops to shoot! We couldn’t resist getting some pictures with a tractor, and of course on the hay bales. We were lucky enough to get a gorgeous golden hour before sunset, and we sat in the hay taking photographs.

Venue: Dunstall Lodge Farm
Celebrant: My Perfect Ceremony
Hair & Makeup: Sarah Harrison
Dress: Jasmine Bridal
Flowers: Mrs Umbels

Cat is just amazing! Such a lovely lady and so talented! Right from the first point of contact to receiving our beautiful photos she has been brilliant. We were just blown away with the quality of the pictures and really felt like we could have been in a magazine!
