This wedding was just fabulous to photograph with the most perfect English weather and the perfect English venue. Sarah was the loveliest of brides with her shock of orange hair and backless wedding dress and her entourage of bridesmaids and groomsmen just made this wedding such a fun day to be a part off.

I arrived early that morning just in time for Sarah to open a present and a card from Tom, her reaction was priceless, so happy and tearful (it was a good job her makeup hadn’t been done yet.) I skipped between the man cave and the bridal sweet photographing both sides of the bridal party, watching and capturing the excitement as it grew.

A fabulous ceremony took play outside under the pergola flanked by blossom trees, afterwards it was drinks, canapes and ice cream on the lawns to the back of Manor by the Lake, before going through to the cooling Ballroom for the wedding breakfast and speeches.

Such a wonderful day, with of course Manor by the Lake delivering the most beautiful grounds to get married in.
