A very English wedding

There’s no other way to describe this wed­ding day, a lovely coun­try­side wed­ding cel­e­bra­tion with pretty colours, a princess bride and tall, dark, hand­some groom. Prema and Andy were mar­ried on the 14th of August in a beau­ti­ful lit­tle Cheshire vil­lage called Thorn­ton Hough. They were mar­ried at All Saints Church, and the wed­ding recep­tion was held at Andy’s par­ents’ house.

Pho­tog­ra­phy was by Vic­to­ria Phipps. I love how she cap­tured some of the very best moments… see Andy wait­ing at the altar, and the lovely pho­tos of Prema with her dad. There are also some cheeky pho­tos in here which made me gig­gle. I hope you love them too!

Confetti

Con­fetti… but I can’t see a ‘chief of con­fetti’ in this… there’s always a chief of confetti…

Ah, there she is at the back. Stealth con­fetti attack! And the man at the front only has one piece, bless him.
