bride with bridesmaids on way to church

I hope you are all having a lovely weekend, enjoying this gorgeous summery weather. Anyway I’m not sure if you saw the real life wedding that I featured recently which was shot by Sam Clayton? – (if not have a quick peek at Hannah and Steven’s Easter wedding). Well I was actually lucky enough to get 2 submissions from her, and I loved the photos so much that I decided to feature both sets. These photos are from Lisa and Damian’s wedding at Cripps Barn near the beautiful village of Bibury in The Cotswolds. Lisa and her bridesmaids got ready…

Bride arriving at church in rain

It might have been raining but that certainly did stop everyone having a laugh at Gemma and Phil’s wedding – St John’s Church in Edinburgh then afterwards at their reception at The Balmoral Hotel I’ve featured some of Compose Photography’s work before on LMW – it was the beautiful wedding of Nes and Dash in Islington, London… I asked the duo (Susannah & Huma) to keep me posted on any other weddings so thanks ladies for remembering me, and also to Gemma the lovely bride who emailed me all the details on the wedding. Flowers were by Roseparks except some…

easter egg favours

I can’t remember how, but I came across wedding photographer Sam Clayton a while ago and loved her work so asked if I could feature her on LMW. This is the first of two beautiful weddings that she sent me – Hannah & Stephen’s wedding on Easter Saturday, 3rd April 2010. Although both living in the East Midlands, Hannah & Stephen held their wedding near Halifax. They had their ceremony at St Matthew’s church in Lightcliffe just up the road from Stephen’s parents house after which they headed over to Stephen’s sister’s house where the reception was held in a…

Some more amazing photos from James and Emma’s wedding taken by Scottish photographers, Jay and Christina @ Elemental Weddings at their reception at LennoxLove House. Its not often that I get sent lots of photos and want to publish every single one but these are just brilliant. A lot of romance and a lot of fun! This is what makes me want to get married all over again – anyone else feeling a little bit jealous? And those flowers are by some of my favourite scottish florists, Planet Flowers, who I have featured on LMW many times. I always like…

Emma and James coming out of the church

I came across Edinburgh photographers, Jay and Christina at Elemental Photography when I first started blogging last year and fell in love with their work, so I keep a regular eye on their blog (and twitter updates) to make sure I am not missing out on any fab weddings. Had to share this one as its a goodie! Here is a selection of photos from one of their recent weddings: Emma getting ready (looking stunning in an antique fur jacket that belonged to her great grandmother and a custom-made dress), James and his ushers at the pre-wedding lunch, the marriage…

Birdcage table pieces at wedding

I’m always happy when I get fabulous photos in my inbox such as these from Lucy Davenport. Its the way that she photographs those special touches so beautifully that make me smile (and makes me want to include every one of her photos in this post). The style, decor and flowers at a wedding are the photos that I love to look at as these are things that give me inspiration. These photos are from the wedding of Ross and Katrina at Clearwell Castle in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire in late February (they organised their wedding in 6 weeks!!)…
