We made it to Carly's house, through very deep snow although we had to park at the bottom the street, only to find out the vintage cars had been cancelled however they were not going to let the bride down and were sending the 4x4s. Carly took it all in her stride and was more than happy with the change of plan, nothing was going to spoil this special day and she just kept smiling and enjoying the morning with her girls.
Everyone made it to the church (in wellies!) and we waited for the bride to arrive...and through the snowstorm we saw the beautiful vintage cars pull up. Yes! the fantastic AB Wedding Cars pulled out all the stops and despite some of the worst weather in decades they got the bride to the church on time and in style. Thanks guys!
After the beautiful service Carly had a lovely surpise, she was serenaded by the fantastic guitarist from the Anna Reay Band . It was a fantastic moment and it brought Carly to tears.
We then made our way (through a snow storm naturally) to Lumley Castle . This was my first visit to this venue and it's a very dark, gothic venue and extremely atmospheric. The Baron's Hall look stunning and there is just something gorgeous about a winter wedding reception all lit by candles. Anna Reay sang through the wedding breakfast and she has one stunning voice!
After the reception we sneaked off for some dramatic Bride and Groom portraits using the features around the castle. Winter weddings do come with their challenges and you do have to change your techniques but I do love them!
Carly and Shaun went off on Safari on honeymoon and we were al envious that they were escaping some awful weather here in the UK!
