Molly & Harry's stunning spring Temple of Minerva Bath wedding

Oh my gosh where to even begin with how fabulous Molly and Harry’s Temple of minerva wedding was! It was my first time ever visiting or shooting in Bath and it did not disappoint and I’m already planning a little weekend away. Spring was in bloom and everywhere was looking stunning in the beautiful (but cold) golden sunshine. The botanical gardens were full of blossoms and daffodils and it instantly made me smile when I walking around ahead of Molly and Harry’s wedding.

In the morning I headed over to see Molly, her bridesmaids and parents while they got ready and excited. Bubbles were poured and many laughs were had amongst everyone. It was the perfect relaxed and fun start to a wedding. I was completely obsessed with Molly’s stunning Ghost wedding dress, ruffled veil, freya rose block heels and where to even begin with my love for her headpiece!

Everyone dressed and glammed by Jen and Sam, I headed over to the Temple of Minerva situated in the botanical gardens, its the most dreamy location spot and florist Wren and May created the most gorgeous floral towers to frame Molly and Harry throughout their ceremony. Vows and rings exchanged it was time for a showering of confetti including a ginormous bag of dried petals that Molly’s grandparents had hand dried from their garden over the past 5 years! (That is dedication to the cause of confetti and I am all about it) A few tinnies, cupcakes and group shots later the guests piled onto a tour bus for a guided tour of Bath whilst Molly Harry and I walked through the botanical gardens and streets of Bath to get some portraits. The flowers and architecture mixed with the dreamiest sunlight had me so excited and these guys were total pros in front of the camera.

Once we arrived at the botanist guests gathered downstairs for 3 beautiful, emotional speeches delivered by Harry, father of the bride Neil and best man Matt before heading upstairs for a gorgeous meal. Everyone full and content it was back downstairs for an epic disco full of all the classics hit off with Molly and Harry’s first dance complete with confetti canons to legend Barry White You’re the first, the last, my everything- what a tune!

The most epic wedding and here’s just a few highlights, congratulations again Molly & Harry and thank you for having me along to document your day.

Catherine & Andy's wedding at York House, Twickenham

Let’s rewind to May last year when Catherine and Andy were married at York House. It was my first time visiting York House and fingers crossed not the last. A historic stately home in Twickenham surrounded by the most beautiful gardens along the edge of the river Thames it’s the perfect backdrop for beautiful portraits.

Their day was full of so many wonderful personal touches. Catherine is Australian and her bouquet, that was organised by friend Alyson, featured flowers native to Australia wrapped in lace from her grandmothers wedding dress. Alongside this she wore a beautiful opal necklace belonging to her mother.

Due to covid Catherine’s family dialled in via zoom to watch her brother walk her down the aisle before a gorgeous intimate ceremony.

Heading out into the glorious southern sun for a showering of confetti we made the most out of gardens and backdrop of the Thames with some family photos and portraits before everyone headed to the pub for a celebratory drink.

I absolutely LOVE sharing peoples intimate days. If you are getting married at York house or having your own intimate wedding drop me a message here. For now here is some highlights from Catherine and Andy’s gorgeous sunny day,
