What an amazing Ramster Hall wedding I had the absolute pleasure of photographing for Beth & Luke back in July this year.  I think it was quite possibly the hottest, sunniest day of the year too!  Perfect for their sunflower (and err penguin!) theme!  I loved Beth’s dress – the detail on the bodice was absolutely beautiful and that coupled with her gorgeous shiny shoes gave Beth a real bit of sparkle on the day.   I’m sure Beth won’t mind me saying she has one of the most infectious smiles ever – when Beth smiles you can help but reciprocate and that’s just what everyone did on their day – friends and family alike and of course Luke…  he was nothing but smiles too!  Beth got ready with the girls back at their home – my friend Sarah from Enhance Make-Up was there to pretty everyone up too!  The ceremony was held in Luke’s former school chapel in Godalming, none other than Charterhouse.  Wow… what an incredible place, it’s HUGE!  Beth had a very grand entrance indeed!  I loved the service, and judging by the smiles and Luke’s happy dance I think they loved it too!  One of their dear friends and ushers raised the roof at the end with his fantastic operatic skills.  It was wonderful…  Then there were hugs and confetti and before everyone melted we hot footed it down the road to Ramster where glasses of Pimms & bubbles awaited, and the lovely Clive Harvey Ukulele Player to serenade us all!  Ramster Hall is such an interesting place, full of artefacts and oddities and little bits of history from all eras and regions.  It’s truly fascinating and a joy to go there with a camera.  The hall looked superb with the vibrant sunflowers, twinkly lights and Luke’s own photos as table names – he’s a darn good photographer himself so it’s always an honour to be asked to shoot a wedding from someone who knows their apertures from their f-stops  😉   The fabulous team from Jacaranda catering served up a delicious 3 course meal which everyone enjoyed and then after the emotional speeches I whisked Beth & Luke away for a much needed 10 minutes on their own.  Well, not quite on their own as I tagged along to take a few snaps!  The day seemed to go by so quick – and after they cut the cake it was Luke’s turn to whisk Beth round and round on the dance floor.  He was worried he’d never live it down but I saw nothing but impressed faces watching on – a true Fred & Ginger they were!  All that leaves is to say a huge thank you to….. my old couple Helen & Dan for recommending me and inviting Beth & Luke to their wedding so they had the chance to meet me and see me in action!!  haha – and of course to Beth & Luke themselves for trusting me with capturing the most precious memories of their day too…
