I am delighted to share with you the preview wedding photography for Emily and Michael who were married yesterday at Elsham Hall. We had a wonderful day which started with the bride and her bridemaids Laura, Emma, Abbey and Katie. When we arrived the girls were almost ready and were having the finishing touches done to their hair and make up. Emily’s hair was done by Joanna Lamb and Charlotte Littleworth did her make up. Her dress was from Sugar and Spice and the look was completed with her lovely bouquet which was done by friend Sally. Following the bridal portraits, Emily had her photograph taken with mum and dad Emma and Tony and then it was time for us to head off to meet the groom. Our portraits of the groom and his bestman Ash, and ushers Tom and Liam were done at Elsham before the bride arrived in style with All Occasion Cars. The beautiful claret theme was carried through into the barn with decorations by BV Decor and before long the all important ceremony was underway. The happy couple then enjoyed a privacy drive whilst guests enjoyed their drinks in the courtyard. The group photography was done in between showers and we had good fun with family and friends alike. Elsham Hall provides some gorgeous backdrops for wedding photography and we very much enjoyed our quick portrait session with the happy couple before the wedding reception. There was much laughter and a few tears during the speeches and a very entertaining delivery of ‘You’ve got a friend in me!” from best man Ash. It was a strange day weather wise, being very humid with bouts of sunshine and showers, but ultimately it was mainly a little dull and overcast which meant we had to work a little bit harder to give Michael and Emily the kind of photography they deserve. We had a fantastic day with Emily, Michael and their guests. Dad Tony and Grandad Brian had us in hysterics with their tales of past weddings and the story of the trousers that were made to measure for the 6ft 5inch groom. The only trouble was the chap was 5ft 6inches! Emily and Michael are a lovely couple and we really enjoyed photographing their wedding. We are very much looking forward to sharing the full collection of photographs with them.
