The Wedding of Lucy and David- Horwood House- Sneak Peek Storyboard!

Well what a year 2013 was. I shot 33 weddings this year and I got to finish off with the beautiful wedding of Lucy and David Benjamin at Horwood House in Little Horwood. I have known Lucy since I was 8 years old as we used to go to Bedgrove school together back in the day and I have also grown up with her brother Michael who’s wedding shot last year so it was great to see so many familiar faces as I arrived to start shooting bridal prep.

The Winter weather was perfect! Blue skies, a light frost on the ground, a crispness in the air and a lot of excitement and a few nerves as I started shooting both Lucy and all her lovely bridesmaids getting ready for the big day.

David was looking very smart in his Top Hat and Cane when I met up with him and the groomsmen for a few shots an hour before the ceremony started. He seemed pretty chilled but it was obvious as Lucy walked down the aisle that he was simply blown away and Lucy’s Dad Tony looked equally as proud of his little girl as he handed Lucy over to David to start the ceremony.

With the sun only a couple of hours from setting it was beaming in through the windows in the ceremony giving a warm glow to the room as Lucy and David exchanged rings and read their own personal vows to each other. There were also three lovely readings from close friends and family, a few of the guests were pretending to have something stuck in their eyes during those πŸ™‚

As Lucy and David literally jumped into married life together we went outside to make the most of the beautiful golden Winter light and take some shots around the grounds before they went off for a horse and carriage ride down the main drive which was once again a great shooting opportunity.

After everyone had warmed up inside Uncle Jeremy who was master of ceremonies for the day got the afternoon’s speeches going in the main reception room which looked like a Winter Wonderland and tied in Lucy and David’s love for novels as each table was named after a “classic”! Tony, David and Rob did a grand job of their speeches and I loved shooting everyones reactions which your see a few of below.

After dinner we used the main staircase for a couple more shots, one of which I absolutely love and just caught my eye as Lucy walked down the stairs. It’s moments like that that make me realise just how much I love what I do and the opportunity to create something timeless for a couple is pretty special.

Just before Lucy and David cut their cake, Lucy’s maid of Honour Katie delivered a heartfelt speech about Lucy with some funny stories and lovely words which had their guests welling up again. Katie though regained her composure with a shot of Tequila πŸ™‚

It was soon time for Lucy and David to take to the dancefloor for their first dance as husband and wife and they sure got the party started as everyone soon joined in for a traditional Jewish dance called a Hora which was a great ending to the formalities of what was a truly excellent wedding day.

Lucy and David, what can I say? Lauren and I had such a good time with you all and it was truly a pleasure to be there and capture your wedding day. I wish you both all the happiness in the world and I look forward to showing you the full collection of images but for now heres your sneak peek storyboard!!
