Mr & Mrs Reid

Thursday the 6th of September was a beautiful sunny Wedding day. We arrived at Stanton House for the Bride and Groom preparations. Firstly we headed to the Bridal suite, where we met a calm Bride to be eating toast and chilling out with her bridesmaids, mum and camera shy flower girl. Laura was calm but so exited! I stayed with Laura while she had her hair and make-up completed while Paul set off to see what Westley was up to.....a nervous Westley was getting ready with his best man and usher. He had a lovely surprise gift bag from Laura with a few essentials in such as socks, cuff links and most importantly a small bottle of whisky to calm those last minute nerves (this was needed)

An emotional Westley watched an emotional Laura walk down the aisle, both with beaming smiles especially when they were finally side by side. After the beautiful ceremony guests relaxed in the glorious sunshine. After the official photos were taken the grooms-men and Westley wanted to have a bit of fun and decide to climb a very large tree....10 minutes later the Grooms trousers had to be stitched up as they had been split! I will let you make your own conclusions!

I have known Louise (the bride) for over six years and after a wedding countdown of 352 days her big day had finally arrived on Saturday 29th September!

The week leading to the wedding it rained and rained, we had brollies and welly's on standby but on the day the sun was shining as it did all day. We arrived to a calm Bride wearing her pj's casually preparing for the day, laughter and giggles filled the air, her sister Rachel was soon doing the makeup and helping her sister with dress duty! 

We arrived at the church to meet a calm Nathan (the groom) who arrived in style in a vintage Austin sheerline, soon guests started to arrive and fill the church awaiting on the Bride to arrive also in the vintage car. The Ceremony took place in the family Baptist Church in Bibury, Gloucestershire, decorated with candles, bows and flowers. Louise walked down the aisle with her dad, as she entered the church she gave a little giggle as Nathan and the guests turned and watched. After the ceremony and wedding breakfast Louise and Nathan relaxed among friends and family at the evening reception, once the tear filled first dance was finished they soon got partying with their guests!

The sun was shining on Saturday the 15th September 2012 as we arrived to The Swan Hotel, Bibury to start photographing our beautiful bride to be, her beautiful bridesmaids and flower girls, as the champagne (and juice) started to flow amongst the girls, the groom and best man had a cheeky pint in the bar.

After months of planning, the big day finally arrived for Pat and Graham and because the sun was shining down on them they were able to have their wedding ceremony outside in the beautiful grounds of the swan. As the guests arrived Lucy gently strummed away on her guitar and when it was time for the bride to walk down the aisle Lucy beautifully sung "from this moment" by Shania Twain. Pats daughter Stacey did the honour of giving her mum away. During the ceremony there were a couple of readings from family members one being from Graham's daughter Kirsty which was absolutely beautiful and even brought a tear to my eye. After the ceremony the pimms began to flow as did the laughter and chatter and still the sun shone all afternoon and late into the evening.

As always I have chosen a few of my favourite photos form the day!
