Beth and Ben - Wedding at The Sussex Barn, Hellingly

Beth and Ben were made for each other. They met at university and are now both accountants and in their words - boring and uncreative! I beg to differ! They were far from boring and lots of fun to be around. I mean, she didn't bat an eyelid walking through cow muddied fields in that beautiful princess dress from Wed2B!

They got engaged in the May of lockdown. When they told us they were getting married in a church we were delighted - we love a church wedding!

Walking down the aisle as Mr and Mrs .. so happy :)

And of course, a rustic wedding wouldn't be complete without the cute VW camper van from Brooklands Wedding Cars, Sussex, to take them off to the wonderful Sussex Barn in Hellingly.

Sussex Barn, Hellingly, is wonderful for rustic weddings. Pretty flower setting in the courtyard...

Gorgeous spacious barn for dining and dancing...

And views to die for....

Fabulous entertainment all day and evening from The Thatchers band

Wedding guests just loving it...

And then the obligatory bouquet throw....... all the single ladies....

1-2-3!

Shame, next time Grandma!

And then, the shy couple take to the dance floor for their first dance.

So so sweet!

And here's a little gallery showing some of the highlights of the day...

Charlotte and Peter - Wedding Photography at the Hotel Du Vin in Brighton

Peter and Charlotte got married in the Hotel Du Vin on Friday 8th October 2021. The weather was pretty good - very mild and not too wet, which was nice as they were keen to have some photographs outside.

Charlotte was an absolutely stunning bride and her bridesmaids gorgeous and full of joy and laughter. So much fun to be around.

Peter and his groomsmen had a lot of fun too. Here they are enjoying breakfast while the ladies were busy getting ready.

And having a drink before the ceremony! Naughty boys!

Charlotte had a lovely suite in the Hotel Du Vin. Huge! And very stylish indeed with two roll-top baths by the window. They made the most of getting ready in their own time!

Her dress and shoes were unfussy and elegant. Pure class!

And the bridesmaids, pretty in pink, just gooorrgeous!

Couldn't resist a photo of one of the bridesmaids enjoying some baby time.

And just to finish up, here's what the lovely couple said about us...

Steve and Tania were our photographers at our wedding in October at Hotel Du Vin and I can honestly say we couldn't have chosen anyone better to capture our day.

​They are so friendly and make you feel very relaxed.

Firstly there were two of them which meant both my husband and I could have photos before the ceremony!!

We didn't have your typical wedding venue with loads of grounds for photos, but we met Steve and Tania before the day and discussed what and where we would like some photos and what would look good etc.

On the day they were amazing, never in the way, and were good fun when trying to do group shots.

We are so in love with the photopraghs we received. Thet were perfect and captured our day exactly as we remember it. Thank you xxx

And here are more photos of the day...

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
