Charlie Brear wedding dress transformation for the win!

I met Hattie & Joe at Sledmere house for their engagement shoot and to say it was covered in Fog would be an understatement! We could not see further than our hands and the view was hidden with a thick layer of York Valley fog, so to arrive on the wedding day to clear blue skies and temperatures hitting 30 degrees was a big difference. These guys had pulled out all the stops; With pub themed table settings, flowing champagne and a 90's power hour disco they made sure everyone would be in for a good time. I can also honestly say that Hattie & Joe's friends and family were amongst the most welcoming I have ever had the privilege to be around, constantly offering me champagne or jagerbombs, whilst complimenting me on photographs they were yet to see!

Hattie wore an incredible Charlie Brear Gown that she transformed for the evening with a jewelled belt and all her girls wore their own version of the same dress which worked perfectly. The gents had a sing a long to "Three Lions', as England had just got through into the Semi's and during the 90's power hour guests could only order WKD's or Smirnoff Ice from the bar! Smashed it guys!!

Hattie & Joe's Day will also feature on Brides Up North at the end of August!

The rain ain't going to ruin our party!

The weekend of the 2nd of June was a pretty special one for me, not only was it our own 1st anniversary I also got the chance to photograph an incredible festival inspired wedding in the Yorkshire Dales. Amanda & Matt got in touch and explained that they would absolutely love me to do their photos and that if I wasn't available then they may not even get a photographer - how could I refuse! When we met to discuss the plans I knew this wedding was going to be perfect!

Now, something Brides always worry about, me included, is the weather and I am so proud to say that even though it rained, a lot, on Amanda & Matt's day they did not let it phase them! I was blown away by the way the guests grabbed brollies, moved the ceremony indoors and embraced the English weather. Amanda strode out into the glorious buttercup field with no umbrella and made sure to wipe the rain drops off Matt's forehead; making for even more intimate and beautiful photos.

These guys had a blast and it just goes to show that if it does rain on your wedding day, embrace it and it won't matter one drop!

Soon to be featured on Boho Weddings so keep your eyes peeled!
