It was a lovely hot sunny day when David and I arrived at Anne’s family home for the final bridal preparations. Everything was running smoothly and before long Anne and her Bridesmaids were ready for some photographs in the garden. Anne and Stephen chose to be married in the lovely St. Michael’s Church, Braintree, (a great favourite of ours – we were married there !). Stephen, his Best Man and Ushers were greeting Guests when we arrived but we were able to steal them away for a few minutes for some pictures.
After the Church service, Anne, Stephen and their Guests mingled in the grounds of the Church in between the taking their family group photographs. A special picture not to be missed was of Anne with the children from her Class at School. Anne and Stephen made their way out of the Church though a shower of confetti for the drive to Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon, for the Reception. A few Bride and Groom pictures, as well as informal images were taken at times before the Wedding Breakfast. Early evening light provides us with some of our best pictures and Anne and Stephen were keen to take advantage of our experience, so after Speeches, we created some great photographs, walking in the lane, with the long grass and the setting sun, wonderful!
Our night ended with pictures of evening Guests and the First Dance. A great day, thank you Anne and Stephen!
