More weddings this weekend!! I’ll blog Sunday’s wedding in a day or two, but first up was Sarah & Mark’s wedding on Saturday. Sarah & Mark live in London but chose to marry in Sarah’s home town of York, and on a gorgeous day like Satuday was there really is no place better.
Sarah chose not to have her preparations photographed, so I met up with the boys who were having a pre-wedding lunch at the Blue Bicycle. Then it was a walk across the city to St. Wilfrid’s Catholic church where the ceremony was taking place. It’s an amazing church, and Sarah & Mark’s priest had travelled up from London specially to perform the service.
The church is just a stones throw from the Minster, so on a sunny Saturday it was obviously pretty teeming with people around the entrance. Sarah & Mark’s guests all looked amazingly smart and stylish and quite a crowd of onlookers began to form. By the time Sarah arrived we had a huge audience of hundreds of people all armed with cameras. I felt like the paparazzi at a premier, and Sarah certainly looked the part in her stunning vintage wedding gown.
After the ceremony it was but a short walk in the sunshine to the reception venue, St. William’s College, stopping off on the way for some shots of friends, family and of course the happy couple in the Minster gardens.
The wedding breakfast room had been beautifully decorated, and after much champagne, merriment, great food, fab speeches and a first dance amidst a shower of multi coloured confetti, it was time to leave everyone to party on into the night.
Sarah & Mark, it was a privilege to join you for your celebrations. We wish you much love and happiness for your future together.
Phil & Lou xx
