Alex & John Wedding at Tilgate Park, Crawley, West Sussex

Beautiful, elegant, sophisticated, handsome, dashing - Alex and John were just about the most bloody gorgeous couple on planet earth!

And good looks seem to run in their family. Their fabulous blue-eyed feline, Poppy, definitely stole the show during the getting ready stage.

And now they head off to Crawley Registry office where the dashing John is eagerly waiting...

The first look...

And here's a few of the ceremony...

After the ceremony, they head out to their snazzy MG ....

Then off to the venue, Tilgate Park, which was a dream for photo opportunities each offering something special: a splash of colour, a tunnel of trees, a secluded bench, meandering paths.....

We were lucky that Alex, having run a marathon or two, was not averse to walking and that she bought her dress from insolvency stock at a very generous price and hence, didn't mind dragging it through the woods! 😂

After we got what we wanted, John asked if we could do a few in the Maze. We were happy to oblige...

And after a lovely long walk, they head back for confetti and a well deserved wedding breakfast...

Amazing food on offer at Tilgate Park and their staff worked tirelessly to feed the hundreds ..

And onto the speeches! Always a fun (if sometimes excruciating for the couple and the speaker), time of the day! :D

Let the games begin!

Don't ask.... ?!:D

And the classic 'Mr and Mrs' game...

I win!

Yaaas!

A perfect ending to a perfect day with the first dance...

And they lived happily ever after, forever....

It was such a joy to be part of their day. We are absolutely thrilled with their 5 star review they left on Google for us...

Absolutely blown away by our wedding photos. Can not recommend Steve & Tania enough. They both made us feel so comfortable and at ease from the very start right through to the end. Their ability to take perfect natural shots is remarkable. It bought me back to the exact moment of each laughter (or tear). Thank you both very much for being part of our special day xx

Colin & Becca Wedding at Cottesmore Golf and Country Club

Colin and Becca are two of the sweetest people you're likely to meet. They found each other online in spring 2014 and by Christmas they had moved in together.

Their first date was at South Bank arcade bowling. Then the competition grew fiercer and on playing a game of Connect 4, the prize for winning was a kiss. Becca lost (on purpose I wonder? :) ).

Colin proposed on Christmas day. He asked so quietly, Becca had to shout, "what?!".

It's so beautiful that Becca remembers all these little details from the day Colin proposed. They are truly soulmates and meant to be together.

Their wedding at was wonderful. Their friends and family so lovely and warm and welcoming. Cottesmore Golf & Country Club is a great venue for weddings, providing beautiful backdrops for some beautiful photographs. They also have lovely rooms for the getting ready. Please take a look at some photos which tell the story of their day below. And, here's what the lovely couple said about us and our photography.

"From the first time we sat and spoke with Steve and Tania, we felt completely comfortable that they were going to fit their photography of our wedding around exactly what we wanted. We were an indecisive couple and probably quite tricky clients, but we were calmly talked through the options and were helped to find the right 'feel' of photos to suit us.

On the day itself, Steve and Tania were not only there capturing all the moments for us, but they also helped wherever they could to make the day run smoothly - from helping keep time to simply being reassuring to us as they know more about weddings than possibly anyone else!

Having 2 photographers was a huge benefit when it came to us having our couple shots, as Tania stayed with the wedding guests and captured some precious moments whilst we were whisked away. Then during the speeches we had the perfect mix of the top table giving toasts and the guests reacting to any funny or heart-warming moments. There's no way a solo photographer would be able to capture the mood like that.

My wife and I are so grateful for everything Steve and Tania did for us, and couldn't be happier with the photos we've received. As the couple getting married, the day is over in the blink of an eye - so to have such perfect photos to look back on is so important. We shared our online album with our guests and they all loved the photos too!

Also, Steve and Tania are literally the nicest people you could ever meet!"

Ben & Lisa Wedding Photography at Random Hall, Five Oaks, Billingurst

Cadbury Purple was the theme of the day - cermony chairs were adorned in purple sashes and Lisa's maids looked lovely dressed in purple gowns in the morning and purple dresses during the day.

Lisa's shoes and earrings also with their nod to the purple theme.

And purple flowers with two enormous white lillies for her bouquet.

There was a running joke about Lisa always being late and Ben always clock watching, so it was very apt that Ben received a pocket watch as a gift from Lisa on their wedding day..

And Ben was clock watching until Lisa arrived.....

Late as anticipated! :D

In due course, they arrived..

Looking so beautiful, I think all was forgiven!

And they got married and lived happily ever after! :)

The food at Random Hall was amazing. It's always nice that our couples make sure we get some hot food but this has got to be the best chicken I think I've ever tasted. Hats off to the chef!

After lunch we took Ben and Lisa off for some quiet time together.... Ben even got in another proposal!

All in all a beautiful time was had. Wishing you both happy for ever. xxx
