Love is in the air… real wedding part one

How do you imag­ine your wed­ding day? Per­fect — well of course. It will be! When you pic­ture the day in your mind do you see events, or acces­sories? Will your wed­ding day be a con­stant flow of amaz­ing moments and mem­o­ries or a dis­play of all the things you’ve found to cre­ate a pretty ceremony?

You’re imag­in­ing the first glimpse of your fiancé aren’t you? Turn­ing around the cor­ner into the cer­e­mony room or glanc­ing down the aisle — or per­haps he’ll wait and turn to look into your eyes when you reach his side. Because it’s beau­ti­ful moments that make a wed­ding day: the pre­cious mem­o­ries you cre­ate together.

This is why I love wed­ding sto­ries. This is why the most impor­tant thing to me is the love. This is why I imag­ine you’re read­ing the Eng­lish Wed­ding blog. This is why I’m show­ing Adela and Toby’s wed­ding today — it’s all about the love, and it’s every­where in this wed­ding for you to enjoy. The beau­ti­ful pho­tog­ra­phy is from doc­u­men­tary wed­ding pho­tog­ra­pher Mar­tin Bed­dall.

Braxted Park wed­ding venue is in Essex, a mag­nif­i­cent Grade II listed Geor­gian House between Chelms­ford and Colch­ester in Essex. The ele­gant coun­try house is a licensed wed­ding venue as well as hav­ing a Parish Church sit­u­ated within the parkland.

How incred­i­bly beau­ti­ful is bride Adela? I love her look — she has an elfin beauty I think I’d actu­ally kill for! And these images are out of this world: a stun­ning bride, so beau­ti­fully photographed.

Adela’s nerves show just a tiny bit — this is the seri­ous bit, the moment just before you get mar­ried… those last few min­utes before you become Mrs… I can almost feel the ner­vous excite­ment from this picture.

The same thought­ful pre-wedding expres­sion from Toby! Tall, dark and hand­some, the per­fect com­ple­ment for Adela’s strik­ing beauty. This is it…

And once you’re together, when your eyes meet for the very first time, the smiles are just there. It’s like magic. For these two, in these fab­u­lous pic­tures, I think it really IS magic — and so precious.

Notice how the pho­tog­ra­phers have the aisle seats… this is a great picture!

I’ll leave you for today with this bril­liant pic of the lady on the right: Chief-in-charge-of-confetti! Hap­pily mar­ried, Toby and Adela walk into the sun­shine and onwards to their wed­ding reception.

The rest of this beau­ti­ful wed­ding day will fol­low tomor­row. Doc­u­men­tary wed­ding pho­tog­ra­pher Mar­tin Bed­dall sub­mit­ted so many beau­ti­ful images and I had to share them all… so stick around to see the wed­ding recep­tion in the morn­ing! Every story on the Eng­lish Wed­ding blog has a happy end­ing — you don’t want to miss this one!

(The Eng­lish Wed­ding face­book page will be updated as soon as tomorrow’s blog is pub­lished. Why not pop over for a look and make sure you’re fol­low­ing my blog on face­book?)

And a final note which describes this beau­ti­ful wed­ding story per­fectly for me:

Love is in the air
Every­where I look around
Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound

And I don’t know if I’m being fool­ish
Don’t know if I’m being wise
But it’s some­thing that I must believe in
And it’s there when I look in your eyes

Love is in the air
In the whis­per of the trees
Love is in the air
In the thun­der of the sea

And I don’t know if I’m just dream­ing
Don’t know if I feel sane
But it’s some­thing that I must believe in
And it’s there when you call out my name

Have a lovely day everyone!
