Marc and Jessica got married recently in Buckden and held a fun wedding reception at one of my favourite hotels in the local area The Old Bridge Hotel in Huntingdon.
The day was not without a few minor challenges (thunder, hail, unexpected videographers) but it’s all in a day’s work as they say! Jessica looked exquisite as she arrived in a beautiful Bentley for the ceremony at St Mary’s Church in Buckden (decorated with English summer flowers from Zinnia).
After the ceremony it was time to celebrate as ‘Mr and Mrs’ done in fine style with a spitfire flypast and acrobatic display to kick everything off!
The Old Bridge Hotel has some great little locations for fantastic wedding photography, so in between the hail we hopped down onto the river bank next to the hotel for a more romantic and intimate photo shoot away from the hullabaloo of the reception but I couldn’t resist asking Jessica later on if she wanted to do some more shots (as the hail came down). Not surprisingly she said no – I don’t think there was an umbrella large enough or strong enough to protect her and the beautiful Rosa Clara gown she was wearing.
Inside the hotel the interiors are very well designed and one of the things I remember about my first visit to ‘The Old Bridge’ is the rows of Veuve Cliquot Champagne displayed in the restaurant. As I love finding unusual backgrounds on which to photograph the wedding rings what better way than to display them but on a bottle of Veuve Cliquot …….Cheers!
The day rounded off with some great speeches recounting the fun times that Marc and Jessica have had and I captured some great wedding reception shots as they laughed their way through the Best Man’s speech recounting Marks appearance on TV’s quiz show Blockbusters.
