The wedding of Vicky and James at Wesley Memorial Methodist Church Epworth and Cave Castle Hotel

 


Vicky and James held their wedding ceremony at the Memorial Methodist Church in Epworth, North Lincolnshire, where Vicky's parents were also married in the 1970's.  We had some vintage photos from her mum and dads' wedding to try to recreate a similar feel in the present day but unfortunately - or perhaps fortunately depending on which way you look at it - we weren't able to recreate the 70's fashion!  Bride and groom then jumped into their Rolls Royce and the bridesmaids into their VW Camper to travel to the reception at Cave Castle Hotel, South Cave back in the East Riding.  Conditions were cool and breezy just after Christmas last year and at one point the wind did threaten to whip away Vicky's veil, but we had some sun too.  Celebrations went on late into the night with entertainment provided by Yorkshire funk band BluePhunk.

The wedding of Laura and Guy at Holbeck Ghyll, Cumbria

Laura and Guy live and work in London but have a great affection for the Lake District and spend a lot of time in Cumbria.  They decided to hold their wedding at the luxurious Holbeck Ghyll hotel on the banks of Lake Windermere surrounded by impressive scenery.  The weather at the end of 2011 was a little windy and wet but it didn't dampen the celebrations.  Laura borrowed a pair of wellies and we all braved the elements when conditions seemed to have calmed.  However, the wind and rain soon returned resulting in some of my favourite photos of the year with the wind a howling and blowing brollies inside out!
