Rebecca and Dave and their families are no exception. What fantastic people and frankly, it makes the job of a wedding photographer not only more pleasant but much easier too if the people you are photographing are nice, friendly and happy people.
Rebecca and Dave are brilliant. Before the ceremony, we were at Rebecca and Dave's house
where our beautiful bride was getting ready. I honestly can't remember when I have seen so many women in one place at one time. One bride, one hairdresser, one Mum and six adult bridesmaids plus 4 children made for one very lively house I can tell you! Great atmosphere though and a great way to kick start the day (no champagne though.... not whilst I was there anyway.... hmmmm).Rebecca's dress was amazing. The only way I can describe it (and I'm not doing it justice) is that it was like a white flamenco dress. I've never seen one like it before and it suited her perfectly.
We set off for the church (St Paul's Church in Childer Thornton on the Wirral) and the guests started to arrive but no groom. Then the Groom's parents arrived and suggested he might be over in the pub (perish the thought). "I'll get him" says the groom's Dad... that was the last we saw of him for the next 15 minutes (i.e. time for a quick pint!).
Anyway, arrive he did with his best man and ushers.
Fantastic ceremony (bride's Dad was a Priest himself so the minister taking the service was obviously at the top of his game) and we managed to get all of the crucial family group shots before it started to rain quite heavily and we headed off for the reception
at Inglewood Manor. Rebecca and Dave were not that fussed about the weather. In two days they are off to Bali so why should they care about us poor so and so stuck over here!Have a great time in Bali guys and for now, here are a few of the photos from your wedding day.
We'll post a few more photos over on our wedding blog at www.barrieneilweddings.blogspot.com
