Rachel & Darren, Chewton Glen & Harbour Heights

Rachel and Darren's ceremony and wedding breakfast took place at the fantastic Chewton Glen Hotel. This part of the day was a small family affair with just 30 people attending. Rachel and Darren have been together for a while and have a couple of lovely daughters who acted as Rachel's bridesmaids (they looked just beautiful in their pink dresses!). Rachel was very nervous before the ceremony but the nerves soon vanished as the couple exchanged their vows. After the ceremony itself, the whole family relaxed on the terrace overlooking the lovely gardens and enjoyed Pimms, canapes and Champagne - a beautiful Summers day. Rachel and Darren took a little quiet time out to accompany me for some romantic shots in the fabulous grounds, and then returned to join their families for a lovely relaxed meal. The speeches followed which were emotional and hilarious alike.

It was then off to the Harbour Heights Hotel (a venue I attend regularly) for the evening reception and time to catch up with Darren and Rachel's friends; all 150 of them! A fantastic evening barbecue on the terraces with the stunning views over Poole Harbour and Brownsea Island, and a brilliant covers band that kept the wedding rocking until the late hours.
All in all a fantastic day was had by all.
