London Wedding Photographers

I travel a lot for weddings particularly around the south of England, and I always look forward to a Cambridge wedding day.

The drive into the centre is interesting, historic and picturesque, so much so that I have to remind myself sometimes that I’m actually driving and to pay attention to the roads! This lovely but rainy day did actually have a driving theme, because the wedding couple Alex and Jack travelled the world together in their VW Camper van, and it was definitely one of the stars of their special day. Very romantic.

The last two years I’ve captured 50 wedding each year (my absolute limit by the way!) For that reason I don’t blog and post as frequently as perhaps I should. It also means I don’t write about every single wedding and opinion I have (lol). I also make some of these posts quite short text and image wise. If anyone would like to see this particular Cambridge Wedding day or any other for that matter, just let me know and I will send you links.

Ok, onwards and upwards. My coverage started at the lovely Graduate by Hilton Hotel situated right in the historic heart of Cambridge and backing on to the river. Very nice! It was certainly a day of two halves, firstly very wet, second nice and dry. That meant Alex arrived in the rain, but as you can see as she enters the wedding ceremony room and has her first sight of Jack and all their friends and family waiting, could not dampen in the least the joy of the moment.

Such a funny and heart warming ceremony followed. The drinks reception was mainly inside, but we did get a lucky break in the rain to do some couple and family shots with the river in the background.

After that, and a short drive away, it was time for a marquee reception in the Cambridgeshire countryside. I did some VW Campervan couple and family shots, confetti throw between the trees, and general reportage. An interesting, individual, and super wedding day, in and around Cambridge.

If you didn’t already know, we shoot Weddings in Spain too. We live most of the year in London, but we have a second home and base we work from near Cartegena in Mercia. That’s the beautiful port city itself, full of Roman ruins and other delights in the photo above by the way. It’s one of Spain’s most beautiful cities, and a really stunning place to host a wedding ceremony and reception. If we are not already over there, then we can get to it directly at short notice if needs be.

This is one of our Spanish Wedding Directory links below:

We cover Cartegena and the entire Mercia region, plus Alicante and surrounds too. Packages are based on the ones listed on the site here: WEDDING PACKAGES

Here’s David practicing his Spanish scarecrow impression:

I think many couples, given the chance, would love to have a Windsor Guildhall wedding. K and D came all the way from America to have their special day there, and what a day it was too! In the shadow of Windsor Castle and in the beautiful town of the same name, it’s an iconic venue, and of course where King Charles and Queen Camilla chose to get married. Not to mention: Elton John and David Furnish’s Civil Partnership as well 🙂

Our day started at the McDonald Hotel Windsor with K’s prep, along with bridesmaids and close family. The McDonald is a very nice hotel, and great too is that it is literally just across the road from the Registry.

I’d already met K and D in person, as we had a wet and windy but very enjoyable engagement shoot at Alexandra Palace in North London, and of course several wedding planning Zoom’s along the way.

When you have a wedding at Windsor Guildhall you are saying your vows in a beautiful 17th century space that houses portraits given by every reigning King and Queen of England all the way back to Elizabeth 1st! You can read more about it’s history here: Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead.

The internals and decor of the building are just so beautiful and grand you just can’t help feeling special while you are there. Times that by ten if you are a couple in love saying your special vows to each other 🙂

After a lovely ceremony led by registrars Julie and Katie it was time for confetti throw outside the Guildhall.  It was here afterwards that  K and D were reunited with their two beloved dogs. I’m going to name them Charles and Camilla…

We had a half an hour trip around some well known Windsor spots for couple portraits, and then it was on to a mooring by the Thames to board “The Georgian” our drinks reception boat. Sailing along the Thames with a wedding party full of laughter and love is a truly special experience.

An hour later we landed at the evening reception venue: The Riverside Marquee at Bray-On-Thames. It’s a great space with a marquee and lawns and grounds all the way to the rivers edge. It was here we had a further drinks reception, games in the grounds, and of course the wedding breakfast, speeches and a US themed dance party afterwards.

K and D had my:  Full Day With David  Package, and a few weeks later I delivered just under 1300 edited images to them. All in all a great Windsor Guildhall Wedding.
