Their Wedding Story
This wedding was a special one! I’ve known Catherine for nearly 20 years, being great friends with her sister we’ve grown up together, so when she asked me to shoot her big day the answer was an obvious one!!
On Friday, spending the day at her family farm with dogs running round definitely took me back to our younger years, but this time we also had babies crawling and the most beautiful tipi set up on the land ready for the biggest party post ceremony. Everything about their big day was utterly perfect and even the rain didn’t stop everyone having so much fun.
After shooting a pre wedding shoot for Catherine and Chris, I was warned Chris may shed a tear or two when he saw Catherine and OH BOY, he was not wrong! Emotions took them both, especially when their little boy George walked down the aisle (with a little help from a baby walker and Sarah, Catherine’s sister). But the BIG surprise came from the bridesmaids giving the loudest rendition of the first hymn while dancing… some may say it was to entertain all the little children surrounding them, but I’m not sure!
From the confetti outside the church to some fun couple photographs FULL of laugher (and a lot of wind hitting that veil!) everything about Catherine & Chris’ wedding was so perfectly THEM, relaxed and so SO fun! I’ll let the photographs tell the rest of the story from their big day, but first here’s to the new Mr & Mrs Mallinson!
P.S. Fall the farmers and especially Mark, Catherine’s dad… that drone footage of the land will be coming in the final gallery!
