Helen & Ed | Hexham, Northumberland

thai-149Man, woman and dog. What a combination for a wedding. Add in a handmade dress, his ‘n’ hers converse, skull print touches, a drumming groom, surprise dance routines, a couple ‘pub’ quiz and CHEESE. Come on.. what more could you want?

Helen and Ed (and, well, Spud too) married in deep Northumberland in a marquee in Helen’s parents garden. They were such a wicked couple, totally into doing every last little thing their way, and the result was amazing. A day full of fun, laughter, friends, family, music, booze and good food.

Here are their photographs, you can read Helen’s write up of the whole day over on Whimsical Wonderland Weddings too. Do it all again Helen and Ed.. please? Helen & Ed-065 Helen & Ed-055 Helen & Ed-060 Helen & Ed-064 Helen & Ed-084 Continue reading

There was so much I loved about this day.. Samantha looking unbelievable in her Juliet cap veil and pearls.. a wintery blue and white, rosemary scented bouquet.. *that* cheese cake.. the evening casino for the guests.. their amazing indie wedding band.. I loved it.

Here is a preview from their day..

Laura Jane & David | Preston Park and The Wainstones Hotel

Laura Jane & David-282

Laura Jane and David’s wedding was one of the craftiest and most colourful days I’d ever seen. They married at Preston Park Museum before having their reception at the Wainstones Hotel in Great Broughton. Laura Jane created so much for this day, including illustrating all the table names and invitations.. creating felt bouquets.. matching the cake, button holes and table centres to those amazing sunshine-bright felt flowers.. their day was so, so personal and every element reflected them as a couple, from including Alpacas at the reception (yes, really) which was a nod to where they got engaged, to having their dog Wazzle (who you may recognise from their engagement shoot) as a cake topper. Their quirky and bright wedding has also been featured on blog Whimsical Wonderland Weddings, where you can also read about what Laura Jane wrote about their day. Wonderful stuff, I love these two.
