Pembroke Lodge Wedding Photography - Victoria & Christopher

It was perfect photography weather for Victoria & Christopher's small and intimate wedding at Pembroke Lodge, Richmond.  I was particularly pleased it wasn't raining, as Victoria's dad had arranged for her gorgeous wedding car to be available straight after the ceremony, for a drive into Richmond Park where we were able to get some lovely portraits.

During the wedding breakfast, Victoria and Christopher opted for a 'sweetheart table' (a table for just the bride and groom), which is a trend gaining popularity in the UK. As the bride and groom seem to get to spend so little time alone together on their wedding day I think it's a really lovely idea!

Here are some of my favourite images from the day.

Brownsover Hall Hotel, Rugby - Laura & Dan's Wedding Photography

Laura and Dan booked me for their wedding about two years ago!  Over that time we've got to know each other quite well through Twitter and email, so by the time it was their wedding day, they felt like old friends and that's certainly how they and their families and friend's made me feel :)

I was slightly nervous about meeting Laura's Dad, Alan, as he has only just stopped photographing weddings himself, some of which were at their venue Brownsover Hall, but his great sense of humour put me at ease and we were soon comparing notes!

Laura and Dan's day was very much about their unique style, from Laura's 1950's style dress by Candy Anthony, her birdcage veil by Fur Coat No Knickers, to those shoes, which were custom made Manolo's (never have I coveted a pair of wedding of wedding shoes so much!). The flowers were by the local Black Orchid florists and that cake (which had the staff sneaking out the kitchen to admire it!) was by Choccywoccydoodah

So here are my favourites, hope you are able to view from the Maldives Mr & Mrs Plant!
