I loved photographing this wedding. It was as ‘London’ as it gets :) The day started with the groomsmen brunching at The Pig’s Ear pub in Chelsea, with the bride getting ready just a few steps away on the same street at her parent’s beautiful West London terraced home, typical of the area.
Lavinia & Danny married at Chelsea Old Church (also on the same street!) followed by a magnificent reception held at the Honourable Artillery Company, City of London. The guests travelled on vintage Routemaster red double decker busses & were handed mini Prosecco bottles with coloured straws to enjoy while the bride & groom made their way in none other than a black London taxi cab! We had a great time getting creative en-route exploring London’s lesser known areas for some really arty, edgy couple’s photographs. The HAC also did not disappoint – nestled right in the heart of the City overlooked by the Gherkin, Shard & Heron Tower we were welcomed by war veterans & ex-servicemen in full military uniform. We even had a very British game of cricket in full swing in the Artillery Gardens!
I got the chance to meet the lovely & down-to-earth Lavinia & Danny before the big day at our pre-wedding meet up so I already knew that this wedding was going to be a special one. However, nothing could have prepared me for how awesome the day went, or just how equally amazing their friends and family were. It’s not often I make quite so many new friends in one sitting that have stood the test of time :) Thanks guys for an amazing day, It was a memorable one! x
