A RUFFLED BLOG FEATURE

I knew I would love Alex & Chris when we first spoke on the phone early last year. They’re designers and run their own studio, We Three Club, so I was very excited to see how much of their personalities they would bring to their wedding and when Alex told me she’d be wearing a vintage dress, I was in. They booked me right there and then on the phone without even needing to meet me, which for me is always a huge compliment. She also totally out-quiffed me with her gorgeous hair, scoring an easy 10/10 in the style stakes.

They’re something straight out of a much cooler era, wouldn’t you agree?

Alex also hand-designs wedding invitations and details here at Dear So & So, so be sure to get in touch if you love the styling of her wedding day as much as I do.

This beautiful wedding is featured here over on the oh-so-pretty Ruffled today, which we three are all thrilled about! Thank you so much Amanda for sharing their unique style over on your beautiful blog.

You can also see Alex & Chris’ wedding video here but I’m warning you, it might make you cry a bit.

  • A HAMPSHIRE WEDDING

    ~
    Carey and James are a lovely, down-to-earth couple who got married in the first week in June. They held their reception at the very stylish Anchor Inn in the very quaint Hampshire, out in the English countryside. I have never been to such a fantastic pub in all of my life and I’m not proud to admit that I’ve visited a fair few. We had such beautiful weather that everyone was in the highest of spirits, which really made for quite the perfect day.

  • MIKI | PORTRAIT OF A BRIDE

    This here is Miki. On the day of her wedding, she got dressed on a boat and it was bright and fresh and the view was so incredible. It was at this moment that I got a little bit awestruck. Isn’t she just beautiful?

    I’m not sure that there is a better place to get ready for your wedding, than right by the sea.

    I had a 4.30am start this morning for my first ever sunrise session and I’m up again at 3am for a flight to Mallorca. I am tired and I better get packing.

  • A BRIGHTON ENGAGEMENT

    It is impossible not to be happy in the presence of Adam and Sophie. They are so very much in love with each other, you in turn find yourself falling a little bit in love with them. They laugh a lot and make you smile, they’re kind and affectionate, relaxed and real and as I discovered one day in Brighton, the kind of people you feel like you’ve always known. They also have a habit of making the sun shine, which was perfect for our morning wandering around for their pre-wedding photos.

  • A WEDDING IN ZURICH

    I am very lucky to be able to photograph weddings such as these. Sweet, intimate and so full of love and smiles. It also happened to be in Zürich, a city I had not visited until July. I think I’m in love with Switzerland.

    Getting ready together, they were both the picture of calm…

    …with a little edge of excitement.

    Swiss civil ceremonies last just fifteen minutes, even when in French and English, which leaves plenty of time for tea and sightseeing on vintage trams…

    There is something so special about grandparents. This lady reminded me of my own grandma and squeezed my hand and beamed when she caught my eye. She also had the cutest granddaughter who was not in the least bit fatigued by the blazing sunshine.

    Thanh has a passion for all things culinary and gave everyone tiny kitchen utensils as gifts.

    Isn’t she just the sweetest little thing?

    After our trip to Switzerland, we’ve decided that one day we’ll move to Zürich and have lunch by the lake on Sundays with our new friends Thanh & Yvan. It’s a truly beautiful place; fresh and clean and content.

    I still have a lot of editing to catch up on and a few more weddings and portraits to do before the year is out. I’m quite sad to see the autumn leaves on the ground but glad to have time to catch up on things through winter. It’s been a year of big changes, exciting challenges and huge rewards, but there’s a little more on all of that later.

  • A CHATEAU GRIMALDI WEDDING

    At this beautiful late-summer wedding in Provence, the sun shone bright and bold and friends by the dozen flew all the way to France, to witness C & D’s vows be told. We clapped and we cheered and the mothers smiled wide, and everyone sipped champagne before supper outside…

  1. Eeeek! What an absolutely stunning wedding – love all the details and the bride + groom are adorable!! The pics are gorgeous – my faves are the two when they’re coming down the aisle. Absolutely beautiful!

  2. You are right, you were totally out quiffed! I love the details and the images and once again have done a beautiful job with this one. I would also like to say that I love the Citroen DS2!

  3. Everything about this wedding is so, so beautiful… the bride, the dress, the photography,the stationery, the framed embroidery… everything! Alex’s invitations are incredible also :) Now I must find me some of them big balloons!

  4. Hello! We would love to know if you’re available for our wedding on Saturday 5 November. Do send me an email if you are! Many thanks, Alice

  5. Love this.. Really impressed by all the details and the clear thought they put into making the day theirs, so they’ll be able to look back and think “yeah, that was us…” rather than some strangers they dressed up as for the day.

    And the perfectly captured photos will of course help with that no end :)
