The weather in Carlisle on the day of Emma and Gavin’s wedding was not good, in fact, it was torrential rain. It wasn’t much better in Glenridding either. Being a wedding photographer in the Lake District means that you become accustomed to unpredictable weather, so we always need to have a back up plan for situations like this, when going outside is not an option. Fortunately, Emma wasn’t phased by the weather and was simply looking forward to having a fantastic wedding. We were looking forward to getting some fantastic wedding photographs in their beautiful Lake District venue.

Emma and Gavin’s wedding suppliers:

Dress: Pronovias
Flowers: Flowers by Something Special, Bowness Cumbria
Hair: Gareth at Aqua Hair, Bowness Cumbria
Make Up: Juliea Toner at The Finishing Touch, Cumbria

The Detail…

Luckily we managed to get the guys outside for a few before the ceremony. Everyone was in a great mood even though the grass was soggy and Gav’s brother was throwing the punches…

Emma’s room was bathed in natural light and we got some lovely shots of her getting ready…

This is a great moment, caught when Emma was walking up the aisle to meet her future husband

It just so happened that as soon as they said ‘I do’ the heavens literally opened with the most torrential rain of the year…. luckily, we are resourceful!

Emma’s mum made all the wedding stationary which looked great. The sugar craft on the cake looked pretty fantastic too!

The rainbow was a very welcome sight. We decided to get straight outside, before the famous Lake District weather changed again…

With the weather threatening, we took the opportunity presented by a welcome busrt of sunshine. The results were…….fantastic!

It’s amazing how happy a little sunshine makes everyone!
