Oh my what a wedding this was! Romina and Rich had thought of everything; the details were spectacular and created a cool, quirky and fun vibe. They chose to marry at Rudding Park in Harrogate (a beautiful place), and had not one but two ceremonies – a relaxed civil ceremony first with close family followed by a ceremony in the gorgeous chapel. They also had a ‘first look’ before walking into the civil ceremony together, which was a lovely moment. Rich hates having his picture taken, and Romina loves pictures – I think it shows how much he loves her that he let us do our thing, and I must say was an excellent model.
It turns out Romina and I already knew each other from uni, we weren’t in the same year but we did dance together (a piece which involved rolling around in a corridor – oh how life is different now!), so there were a few familiar faces at their wedding too!
I’m going to start with the shoes, as they were the first thing chosen for the wedding!
The amazing dress required a trip to Italy…
A fun morning getting ready…
Romina was pretty pleased with her makeup!
Time to go and meet her groom!
Rich was nervously excited!
I just love these…
Hi 5 if you wanna get married!
The civil ceremony was really lovely, short and sweet – just how they planned.
Married!
It was really lovely that their close family could be part of this extra bit of the day!
Time for Mr + Mrs to put their glad rags on for ceremony number two!
Shoe time!
Love. This. Veil.
Romina = stunning.
Rich was being entertained by his best men…
Here we go!
Such a beautiful setting…
The band started playing as soon as they came out of the church, brilliant!
Check out Part Two for the rest of the action!
