Carrie & James get Married

So, last week it was forecast to rain on Saturday but it didn't! We had a great day at Canon Pyon Church for Carrie & James's Herefordshire wedding. We did the pre-wedding shoot ages ago but have kept in touch and it was great to meet up with them again.

Here's James and his entourage. Got to do the walking shot haven't you!

Two amazing 1950's Cadillacs brought Carrie, her Mum and her bridesmaids. They brightened up the country lanes. We thought one had given up the ghost on the way but they got it going again thankfully!


Loved the coloured candle lanterns the bridesmaids were carrying. A nice touch.

In churches you usually get more free rein with the signing the register shots and it's a lovely bright room in there too.

Married!

St. Lawrence Church at Canon Pyon has a nice long path and this wooden entrance arch so we made good use of it.

Then it was off to the Green Dragon in Hereford city centre for the wedding breakfast and reception. Carrie is a qualified chef and made her own wedding cake. She's probably going into business now doing cakes and on the strength of this I can highly recommend her!

James has got that gangster look off to a T.

The Green Dragon is a grand old building giving us lots of nice opportunities for the individual and bride & groom pictures.



More surprises as the evening reception was a masked ball. Even the bar staff and DJ got in on the act. I would have done but it's tricky taking pictures in a mask!
This is Carrie & James enjoying their first dance.

James, that's not your wife!

Carrie & the girls in their evening masks.

Another great wedding and it should be an album to match when they get back from honeymoon.

  2. Thanks Gemma. The dress was a closely guarded secret - even from the bridesmaids!
    Was a lovely day.
