A HUMANIST WEDDING
A wedding in September, in a field beneath a tree, a couple stands amongst their friends, and vow into the breeze. To love one another and to cherish, to have and to hold forever tight, the band sings stay with me, I’ll stay with you, and we’re warmed by the sunlight.
A more perfect day I could never have dreamt, so I framed these memories, of that late summer day, of Matt and of Jess, and their glorious, humanist ceremony.
Venue: The beautiful House Meadow // The Dress: Frou Frou // Bridesmaids dresses: Topshop, 2011 // Celebrant: Xena of Bespoke Humanist Ceremonies // Catering: Chicks That Chop (the greatest meal I’m yet to eat at a wedding) Band: The Bonfire Band and later, The In-Laws
The hugest and most heartfelt of thank yous, to you Jess & Matt, for having me with you, crying my eyes out through your beautiful ceremony. It really was perfection.
This most gorgeous of weddings is also featured on the splendid Style Me Pretty, right here. Thank you to the ladies there too, for their very kind words and for all of your very sweet comments.
This weekend I’m off to photograph two lovely, lovely weddings. One for a couple tying the knot in their sixties at the elegant and understated, Frederick’s in Islington. Cameras at the ready, it’s going to be a beautiful weekend!
This glamorous wedding near Dijon for the very dapper Nicolas & the exceptional Alexandra…
Beautiful photos as always. More photos of the cute doggie next time ;)
Oh my Chloe! I don’t think I can take seeing anymore STUNNING images of this wedding. The day has been captured perfectly and the guest photos are all so full of life and laughter. LOVE them. Jess, you look so utterly beautiful in the black and white image, make sure Matt carries a pic of that in his wallet forever more! Ok, I promise no more exclamation marks and no more caps lock, but shall keep showing these pics off for quite some time. Love from us all at The House Meadow x
Ok, I think this is my most favourite of your weddings now, Chloe. Ella and Sam have been pipped to the post! The House Meadow has never looked so beautiful and I met the gorgeous Jess when she was dress shopping. Dreamy, stylish, full of the most beautiful light and perfectly shot xx
