What is going on with the English weather… yet another stunning wedding in the sunshine! Yes it really was a fantastic day for Carole and Karl as they were married at St Mary’s church, High Hesket and then held their reception at the Inn On the Lake, Glenridding on the shore of Lake Ullswater. Both Carole and Karl work in the wedding industry and in fact Karl actually made her amazing tiara. They are also friends with Ian Stuart – Winner of the UK bridal wear designer of the year award 2010, 2007, 2006, 2005 and 2004 and he not only provided Carole with her beautiful dress, but he also made her a second dress and the bridesmaid’s dresses! Carole’s dress was amazing, really stunning and then she had the shorter version for the evening. Carole had modelled bridal wear in the past and this contributed to her being relaxed in front of the camera and allowing us to produce some stunning images. The couple picked the amazing John Penn to sing an acoustic set as they soaked up the sun and enjoyed their champagne, and as you can see Carole even sang Karl a song, she was very very brave and did a great job. Thanks again for allowing us to enjoy your day with you.

It really was fantastic to be able to join India & David for their beautiful village wedding at Ravenstonedale. David’s mum had made literally hundreds of little bunting flags which looked amazing; they lined the path down to the church as well as in the beautiful garden that they used for the marquee in the evening. It was a gorgeous day and the lovely touches made things that bit different and special. India met all her guests at the hotel and they followed her down to the church in a fantastic procession, then after the ceremony the newly weds lead all the guests back from the church. As Cumbria’s leading wedding photographers we always achieve fantastic results, as you will see from the rest of the blog, however this is so much easier when we are in such a lovely setting and with such great people as we were with India and David in Ravenstonedale
