Anne & Will: Old Warden Mansion House Wedding

weddings

There is nothing better than a wedding day that not only celebrates love, but is ridiculously fun for the guests too! And what better way to do that than having a games room for your guests at your wedding reception?

Anne & Will not only set up garden games, but a full size Scalextric track, a Nintendo Wii and even an air hockey table, and surprised their guests with it right after the wedding breakfast. Amazing!

Thank you Anne & Will for having us photograph your wonderful day - we wish you every happiness for the future!

Shauna & Rushton: Priory Barn, Little Wymondley Wedding

Cat Lane

23 September 2015

weddings

On a beautiful sunny day at the beginning of August, Shauna & Rushton married at a wonderful church ceremony in King's Walden, followed by celebrations and garden games at the Priory Barn in Little Wymondley. A wonderful, relaxed day for the two loveliest people.

The grounds of the barn were bursting with vividly coloured flowers, the perfect backdrop for portraits and every photographer's dream. We also managed to sneak out after the speeches for a few sneaky golden hour photos of Shauna & Rushton as a newly married couple as the sun set.. always a winner!

Congratulations you two and thank you ever so much for choosing us to photograph your day! We loved every second :-)

"Oh my god Cat I love them! Thank you so much, they are everything I wanted!" - Shauna & Rushton

Amy & James: Scottish Wedding at the Bedford Barns Hotel

weddings

Amy & James' wedding was our very first at the Barns Hotel in Bedford, set on a gorgeous July day. They managed to plan their entire day from Scotland with the help of family down south, which we greatly admire as we know how difficult it was planning our own.. which was less than half of that distance away!

They draped the tithe barn in fairy lights and adorned the place with gorgeous handmade decorations, all themed around their world travels, featuring themed cocktails and sweets for every guest, a table for each country and polaroids of their wonderful travel photos strung across the walls.

Thank you Amy & James - it was an honour to capture your beautiful wedding day!

"We just returned from our honeymoon late last night so it was wonderful to wake up and look through all the pictures this morning! They are perfect! Thank you both for all your hard work on the day - it's clear to see it all paid off. We can't wait to see the prints! Thanks once again for everything - you really went above and beyond all our expectations." - Amy & James

Lucia & Fabio: Swiss Italian Lake Maggiore Wedding

Cat Lane

19 August 2015

weddings

The opportunity to photograph Lucia & Fabio's beautiful wedding day has got to be one of the biggest highlights of our careers - it's a huge honour when another photographer asks you to photograph their wedding, and even more of one when you are flying overseas to do it!

The setting for their way was a town in southern Switzerland next to the stunning Lake Maggiore, starting at a small local church surrounded by a garden of roses, and then a stunning hotel for their celebrations. The weather changed from thunderstorms to blazing sunshine at the last minute, and the glorious sunshine they have there is like nothing else I have seen in the UK!

Lucia & Fabio were driven to their wedding reception in Fabio's car, driving through the Swiss streets with a convoy of beeping cars behind them! An incredible atmosphere, and one that Graham got to experience whilst hanging out of a car boot photographing it all (!)

One of the best parts of our job is being able to experience such joy, love and happiness at weddings and Lucia & Fabio's day was no different. From their fingerprinted wedding rings, to the touching videos they each made for each other to share at the reception, it was an honour and a privilege to be there in this celebration of their love capturing it all.

Lucia & Fabio, thank you for asking us to come all the way to Switzerland to photograph your day. We left having made two friends for life, and will never forget your wedding day!

"We are really so so happy we had both of you by our side! The pictures look amazing, you really captured our wedding day in a discreet, delicate, beautiful way. I am so happy I could re-live that important day and this is such a wonderful gift you have given us. It was such a pleasure to have made two new friends like you on our special day and we are incredibly happy with the result. I am just over the moon right now!" - Lucia & Fabio

Beth & Declan: English Garden Wedding

Cat Lane

13 August 2015

weddings

Beth & Declan's gorgeous wedding took place in the mother of the groom's garden at the beginning of May. Their relaxed celebrations featured a beautifully decorated marquee, lawn games, a piñata and even a surprise flypast courtesy of the nearby aeroplane museum! A truly great day, shared with an intimate guest list of their closest family and friends.

As a baker, Beth baked all of the cakes for the day and they looked absolutely mouth-watering. With mexican food as their wedding breakfast and ice cream for dessert, their day really was a food lover's dream.

The morning rain let up just in time for their ceremony, held in the sunshine under the blossom trees. And when a rainbow popped up later on in the day, we couldn't resist running down the street with them to set it as the backdrop to some of their portraits!

I'm thrilled to say that Beth & Declan's beautiful day has been featured HERE on my all-time favourite wedding blog, Love My Dress! Thank you so much Beth & Declan for the opportunity to photograph your day - we loved every single moment.

"I'm not great with words so I can't express just how much we love the photos. Everything we wanted and such a beautifully curated collection as well. I think I might end up framing them all, and we really enjoyed your company at the wedding. Thank you so much again - I'll definitely recommend you to everyone I can." - Beth & Declan
