Amy & Aaron (and Lex!)

Amy and Aaron are counting down the weeks until their wedding day (6 to go!), and as they are both a little camera shy they wanted to practice turning on the love for the camera!  As a cunning trick they brought along their gorgeous dog Lex to distract us (which maybe worked a little!).  We headed into the park for some Autumn fabulousness, and managed a good walk before the heavens opened!

Erica & Martin

Erica and Martin are the first bride and groom we know of who actually wanted it to rain on their wedding day.  Thankfully, they got their wish and it rained so hard we almost had to row home at the end of the evening!  The venue was Broadoaks country house in Windemere which was the perfect setting for a cosy wedding in the lakes, and there was such a wonderful atmosphere all day.

Gorgeous shoes!

One of the reasons Erica and Martin fell in love with Broadoaks was because of it’s charming details…

Their love of travel was referenced by the table names and luggage tag place settings…

Jennifer & Simon

We had a lovely Sunday with Jennifer, Simon and their closest friends and family.  They are both lovely chilled out people, and we really enjoyed their wedding!  They told us they are very camera shy too, so it was funny that one of the the very first things Jen said to us in the morning was, ‘"I love the sound of a camera"!

5 shoe pictures is a new blog record I think!

We were still full of beans at the end of the night (this is what we do at weddings when no one is looking!)…

Thanks Jen and Simon for sharing your day with us…make sure you take lots of pictures on your honeymoon safari! X

Lisa & Anthony

Twelve years ago (yesterday!), Anthony and Lisa went on their first date.  Funnily enough they met at Lancaster University like us!  Two years ago (yesterday!), Anthony proposed.  What better way to celebrate your anniversary than to finally get married?! 

Their wedding was lovely and relaxed – Lisa and Anthony decided not to have ‘formal’ pictures, so there was plenty of mingling!  Lots of their friends were involved, playing music in the ceremony, making the cake and the beautiful table centrepieces.

Eaves Hall is a beautiful wedding venue…

Lisa_Anthony001

Lisa even managed to get the trees to match the autumnal theme perfectly!

Lisa_Anthony002

Lisa’s fabulous sparkly shoes!

A little shoe safari!  The trees made a fabulous background…
