These guys have made their way to the top of the editing queue; cannot wait to get stuck into this one!
Kilts, bagpipes, spring flowers everywhere, the warmest April Saturday imaginable, a ceilidh that absolutely went off and two people who are somehow very good at being photographed whilst insisting they aren’t.
This wedding’s got all the good stuff 💛

SALLY & JACK // A perfect May wedding day from start to finish!
Sally & Jack were married at Woodlands Hotel outside Leeds this Bank Holiday weekend and it was a dream! The ceremony and wedding breakfast took place in the orangery, which was filled with light, and it all felt relaxed from the very beginning — their little boy exploring the room and periodically coming back to join them for a quick hand hold or to play with Sally`s veil 😆
At the end of the ceremony, Jack’s mum had arranged a surprise recording of their son singing Can You Feel the Love Tonight to be played. It completely caught them off guard, and there wasn’t much chance of keeping it together after that — not for them, not for their guests, and DEFINITELY not for me (or Christian from Ainsley Wedding Films - always a pleasure to work with!).
After we all recovered ourselves Sally & Jack walked back out together through a shower of confetti, before taking a bit of time for themselves whilst everyone spilled out onto the terrace for drinks in the sunshine. The newlyweds soon joined us to huge cheers and it was on with the rest of the day — that lovely just-married feeling settling in properly.
And then later into the evening there was a packed dance floor, with Limp Bizkit playing early doors (their little boy’s favourite track!), and that was it… the tone set for the rest of the night.
Thank you for having me there Mr & Mrs H! 🤍

LORNA & CHRIS //
I spent my Saturday at the wedding of these two legends, at the gorgeous Falcon Manor in Settle ☀️
One of those days that just clicks straight away. No awkwardness, no fuss — just a room full of people who were completely up for it and clearly adore these two. Lorna & Chris are such a fun pair, the kind of couple that make everything feel relaxed from the off.
The morning had such a calm, happy feel to it — loads of space, loads of light, and everyone just enjoying it rather than rushing through it.
I loved Chris` purple suit and black shirt combo, and the flowers by Berries Florist in Skipton brought all the colour. It all felt really bright and full of life, which matched the day perfectly.
Also… that weather. In April?! Full sunshine, actually warm — my first suncream use of the year!
And then the evening… Lorna changed into a second dress, the dance floor filled straight away, and it quickly became clear there are some big Fall Out Boy fans in that room (yes please!). Exactly the kind of energy you want.
Congratulations Lorna & Chris, and Thnks fr th Mmrs 🤘

SIAN & ANGUS //
What a day we had on Saturday!
The Goldsborough Hall gardens looked glorious in that rogue burst of summer — none of us were ready for it but no one was complaining! Angus and his family & friends did Scotland proud, with kilts and tartan everywhere you looked, plus a bagpiper welcoming guests.
Their ceremony took place in the drawing room, and later it was into the orangery for the wedding breakfast — both spaces filled with the dreamiest florals by River & Rose 😍
They’d both deny it I`m sure, but Sian & Angus are absolute naturals in front of the camera. No fuss, no overthinking — just the two of them being themselves, which is always when the magic happens.
We nipped out in the evening for a wander through the bluebells and blossom, found the dreamiest little spot — plus a field of very curious lambs keeping an eye on things 🐑
And then… the ceilidh which turned out to be an absolute belter! Traditional tunes mixed with modern songs, everyone fully committing — exactly what you want.
Lovely working with Alex Lester on video for the first time too!
More to come from this one 🤍
