Sam & Kevin's Real Life Wedding

This weekend I had the absolute pleasure of capturing the wedding day of Sam & Kevin.

The day began with bridal prep and Prosecco! Throughout the morning Kevin had arranged for the bridesmaids to give gifts to Sam from him at specific times....boy was this emotional!

From Pandora charms to her favourite chocolates Kevin really showed imagination...he even made a handmade story book full of photographs of thier time together!
​

Throughout the morning the girls relaxed and enjoyed chatting away whilst the amazing Megan worked her magic on their make up. After seeing how emotional Sam became at the wedding rehearsal I totally expected her to be a bag of emotions before we left for the Church but as you can see from the picture below....there were no nerves in sight...just pure excitement!
​

The service was held at St James Church in Birstall and was a lighthearted and relaxed occasion with the congregation doing the actions to ' He's Got the whole World in His hands' with gusto!
​

After the ceremony the new Mr & Mrs Carter left the Church to the amazing sounds of bell ringers and a crowd of well wishers!
​

Before heading to the reception we made a quick detour to The Great Central Railway. Such an awesome backdrop for wedding photographs....unfortunately we just missed the arrival of a steam train by 10 minutes! But still managed to capture some amazing shots like this!

Their reception was held at the Manor Hotel in Quorn which has gorgeous grounds suitable for a wedding marque. After the wedding breakfast the speeches began. This has to be the funniest part of the wedding for me! Hearing the stories and capturing the reactions is priceless. 

After a few more toasts it was finally time for the 1st dance.

Massive congratulations to Sam & Kevin...Love Photography 13 Weddings wish you all the love luck and happiness for your future!
