Big sister Maisy enjoys making things
Thanks to Connagh, Maisy, Ella and Chloe for a fun morning of photos!
Our first wedding of 2010 was Maggie and Gareth’s wedding at Shottle Hall near Belper in Derbyshire.
Maggie was getting ready upstairs at Shottle Hall.
Maggie’s dress was stunning.
Every detail was gorgeous and carefully thought out.
A final look before heading downstairs to meet Gareth and begin the ceremony.
Gareth and Maggie look on as Gareth’s grandmother acts as a witness and signs the register.
Gareth and Maggie take a moment after the ceremony before meeting and greeting their guests.
The weather was wonderful, especially for February.
It’s not everyday that a bride and groom go running through a field! Maggie had bought some wellies with her especially so she could go out and about without worrying about her shoes!
Maggie’s brother gave her away and also gave a speech.
Gareth had two best men.
Maggie and Gareth danced to “Defying Gravity” as their first dance.
Then their band, Zephyr, got the party going.
Congratulations to Maggie and Gareth! The rest of the photographs will be available soon, just leave a comment on this post and we’ll let you know when they are ready.
Our last wedding of 2009 was Corrin and Michael’s New Year’s Eve wedding at Edensor Church and Hassop Hall Hotel.
Corrin was getting ready at her family home and Michael had arrange for a special photo slideshow for Corrin to watch
Corrin loves horses and wanted a horse and carriage to take her to church, but the horses couldn’t do the long journey from her family home in Glossop across to Chatsworth so she was expecting to travel in a family car across to meet the horse and carriage for a shorter journey to church. Michael had secretly arranged for Corrin to have special wedding cars instead – Corrin knew nothing about it and this was her reaction when she saw the cars outside!
Corrin looked absolutely stunning in her wedding gown.
Edensor Church on the Chatsworth Estate is a gorgeous church in a lovely village setting.
Michael, his best man and ushers wait for Corrin’s arrival.
Michael is a submariner and his colleagues were also smartly dressed for the wedding.
Gorgeous bouquet.
Corrin’s sisters and best friend were excellent bridesmaids and made sure Corrin’s dress was kept off the ground.
The driveway at Hassop Hall Hotel makes for a grand entrance for the horse and carriage.
The tables were beautifully dressed.
It was quite chilly outside so we had a quick walk around the gardens with Corrin and Michael.
Michael wanted to impress us and lifted Corrin up and twirled her around
Hassop’s pianist kept the guests entertained during the drinks reception.
Corrin’s brother gave Corrin away and he also gave a lovely and entertaining speech.
Corrin and Michael had named each of their 10 tables after one of the twelve days of Christmas. As an interlude between speeches, each table sang it’s own line whilst standing up to perform it. The top table started with “Twelve drummers drumming” and also finished with the last line “A partridge in a pear tree”! Here is the photograph of their finale!
The best man, also Michael’s brother, was entertaining and brought up some funny stories about Corrin!
Michael and Corrin’s first dance was “With or Without You” by U2.
Congratulations to Michael and Corrin!
This weekend was the wedding of Samantha and Colin at The Priest House Handpicked Hotel near Castle Donnington in Derbyshire. Preparations began at Sam’s family home with her family and bridesmaids.
Max and Maggie joined in the celebrations with their wedding bows
Lots of gorgeous details.
Meanwhile, Colin was calming his nerves in the bar at The Priest House along with his best man, Jim.
It wasn’t long before Sam and her dad arrived in their Beauford wedding car.
Waiting for her grand entrance.
Gran waits too.
Colin chats with his mum while they wait.
Then it’s all smiles as Sam arrives.
Lots of kissing!
Sam and Colin kissed three times during the ceremony
After the ceremony Sam threw the bouquet to all the unmarried girls.
All good fun
It was raining outside but there’s a huge window upstairs at The Priest House so we took advantage of the natural light there.
The tables were set out beautifully.
The room was lovely.
Romance was everywhere!
Sam chats with her guests.
The best man enjoys his speech.
There is a spiral staircase up to the bridal suite so we took advantage of the setting for a few more shots of Sam and Colin.
A quick touch-up in the ladies.
One last shot of the day; a 30 second exposure of The Priest House all lit up at night
