Eastbury Hotel Sherborne Dorset Wedding of Charlotte & Ian

Charlotte & Ian were married on a beeyootiful day – on of the few we’ve seen this ‘summer’! Stuart joined the wedding party at Charlotte’s house for the preparations, and then on to the big red double decker bus with all the guests (& the groom!) to Manston church in Dorset for the ceremony. Sadly the vicar did not allow any photography at all during the service, but Stuart managed a few of Charlotte and her Dad going in, the obligatory register shots, and then he asked the newly married couple to pause at the top of the aisle on the way out to create at least a few romantic shots of them.
Everyone hopped on the bus to Sherborne, where the reception was held at the Eastbury Hotel Dorset – a venue we cover regularly.
Charlotte & Ian are a lovely couple, and pretty well laughed their way through the entire wedding day. But Stuart said it wasn’t just them, there was a really fun atmosphere throughout all the guests, which really shows in the pictures. Charlotte & Ian had been thoughtful enough to provide a large box of games and bubbles for the children in the garden – though it must be noticed that there are a lot of big people playing with them!

Here’s a few taster images of the day – don’t forget to leave your messages and comments for Charlotte and Ian at the bottom, I know they’ll love to read them. The full wedding album will go live on the website as soon as the couple are back from their honeymoon and have had a chance to be the first to see them!
