Lorna and David are a lovely couple and it was a great pleasure to shoot their wedding. The day itself was a lovely sunny hot one, Lorna and the girls got ready at the nearby Cottage Lodge Hotel Hampshire which was a real laugh. One bride, four bridesmaids, one flower girl, one Mum, two makeup and hair artists, a large dress and veil, a four poster bed, all the things that go with such an occasion – makeup, champagne, makeup a photographer more makeup (not mine I hasten to add)… all in a room about 12 feet by 6 feet with a sloping ceiling! Well if you can’t be good friends after that, then…!
I arrived at Beaulieu Abbey Church to find myself greeted with the sounds of the piper, yes you guessed it, Davids side of the family are Scottish and a strong contingent had come down from (as David puts it) Gods Country! A small panic, the rings had been left back at the hotel – but a good man was put on the case and I am pleased to say they arrived in the nick of time with the bride being blissfully unaware – until the vicar let it out during the ceremony of course!
The day itself was a wonderful relaxed affair, the sun shone, the champagne flowed and everyone just strolled around the wonderful grounds of Beaulieu in Hampshire. The Domus had been beautifully decorated for the reception a hearty meal full of fun and laughter ensued and with the speeches that followed a few tears as well. The evening was topped off by a great band and after the touching first dance, Lorna, David, their friends and family danced the night away.
Another Great Day, what more could you ask for?
