Once upon a time at Allerton Castle
Once upon a time there was a couple from Cambridgeshire who were madly in love and decided to get married. They dreamed of a perfect fairytale wedding and after months of planning, when the day finally dawned, everything was set in motion to ensure that dream would come true. Our princess for the day, Kelly, looked as if she came straight out of a storybook as she walked down the aisle to Wayne, her knight in shining armour (well, make that knight in ‘dashing suit’). She was escorted, not by some evil stepsisters, but by glamorous bridesmaids and 2 little enchanting fairy princesses. No fairytale would be complete without a proper castle and for Kelly and Wayne, Allerton Castle in North Yorkshire provided just the right setting. A horse and carriage whisked the newlyweds away after the ceremony for a romantic stroll in the castle’s grounds while the guests were being entertained by a string quartet. Andy Sutcliffe was the photographer on hand to capture that day for eternity. That day, even the weather gods smiled on Kelly and Wayne, nothing would spoil there dream. The starry night evening, a loving waltz and fireworks were the perfect ending to this magical day. Yes, Kelly and Wayne had always dreamed of a fairytale wedding and that is exactly what they got, happily ever after began that day. You see sometimes, dreams and wishes do come true. Don’t believe me, watch the following clip!

Cathy & Craig at Avington Park, Hampshire
A month without a blog entry! Ouch!!! Well, let’s just get started again with a trailer to wet your appetite for the summer season.
Let me present to you, Cathy and Craig, who got hitched on 2 May this year at Chandlers Ford Methodist Church, with a reception afterwards at the beautiful Avington Park near Winchester, Hampshire. The day felt like an ideal summer’s day, nice warm sunny weather which complemented Cathy and Craig’s vibrant colour scheme perfectly.
Cathy and Craig are quite the adventurous couple, who love to travel. Craig, better know as Trigga, even proposed under water on a scuba diving trip. Their fun loving spirit was apparent throughout the wedding day: from an extract of a Winnie the Pooh story as a reading during the service and waltzing down the aisle together at the end of the service to a photo session in the reeds by the water at Avington Park and a first dance involving more lifts then we’ve ever seen in one dance! All in all, a really fun day. For their honeymoon, they went to Bhutan, supposedly one of the happiest countries in the world, seems like just the right choice for this couple.
We also had a very enjoyable day working their photographer, David Pullum. You can see some of the fantastic photos he took that day on his blog.
So here it is, the trailer to their wedding video. I hope you will enjoy it, if you do please leave us a comment.
