I’ve been such a rubbish blogger recently and I promise you it’s not because there’s a dearth of things for me to blog. To be honest, it’s quite the contrary. I’ve been a busy little bee, working on the some super weddings – so super and fun and beautiful that I have to pinch myself now and again – I can’t believe it’s my job to photograph them. Happy days! :)
First up, I think I need to blog Jess and Tony’s absolutely brilliant and fun wedding. Why? Because they had their reception in one of my now most favourite London wedding venues, Petersham Nurseries. It was such a gorgeous, blistering day and it would be completely wrong of me to show it to you later in the year when the weather’s a bit miserable. Seems only fair, no?
I think what really stood out for me about this wedding was how much fun it was. Be it the surprise appearance of an oompah band, a spontaneous outbreak of dancing, a magician, or the fancy dress props that made their way round the guests all evening, there was always something to keep the guests smiling. For me, it was just how a wedding should be – a proper, heartfelt, joyful celebration. Extra special mention must go to the fabulous Choccywoccydoodah cake (just. wow.) and the brilliant illuminated letters from Vowed & Amazed.
Thank you so much to Karen Flower for seconding on this one, and a big thank you to Jess and Tony for having us along on the day, for putting together a perfect day, and for looking after us so, so well. xx
