Ettington Chase Hotel Wedding: Alice + JJ
Back in July, Alice and JJ, a young couple from Leamington Spa, were married in their local church. The christian ceremony was beautiful, with many of their friends stepping up to give readings or blessings. The pair had asked for couple photos by their favourite spot in the world, an old windmill. The weather was good to us and we got some beautiful sunshine for the couple shots. The reception was held at the lovely Ettington Chase hotel, where the couple hung their names on a tree which is traditional for that venue.
The speeches were truly wonderful to listen to as there was so much emotion in the words. JJ gave a really heartfelt speech which was injected with bursts of the couple's favourite songs on his iPod, something I had never seen before! After dinner the sun was still shining so we took the bridal party off to do some silly group shots, they were really up for anything and everything! The sun was just dipping as we finished up, so we took Alice and JJ off to do some quick sunset couple shots to make the most of the beautiful sunshine.
Before the first dance, an open mic was offered to the guests, who sung songs and gave more blessings to the newlyweds. The first dance surprised us all when during the slow dance, the bride and groom's friends jumped in and started doing a flash mob dance! It was amazing! Straight after, fireworks were let off on the grounds, a grand finish to a fun filled day!
