After Rachael & Danny's fun pre-wedding shoot, I was very excited to be photographing their special day at Matfen Hall, Northumberland. Megan was assisting me at their wedding, and when we turned up the room was buzzing with excitement.

Rachael chose a stunning ivory satin gown by Pronovias from Mia Sposa in Newcastle and her beautiful sash came from Sassi Holford with added a gorgeous detail to her stunning dress.

Rachael's shoes came from Dorathy Perkins and the bridesmaids dresses where from True Bride (Luna Collection).

Danny's choice of menswear were very unique and came from Mia Sposa
They wore blue and white pin striped shirt, with a light brown waist coat, a black & white checkered tie and finished off with a black jacket.

We think the ladies had been clever in organising their room choices as they got ready in a spacious bridal suite, on the other hand the men were jumping over each other in one of many smaller bedrooms to get ready in! ;-)

It was very emotional when the brides dad; Collin came into the bridal suite and had tears of joy for how beautiful Rachael looked. 


In the Great Hall where the ceremony took place was decorated stunningly by The Finishing Touch Company. The sequin chair covers looked amazing next to all of the candles. 

The couple chose to have a memorial table to remember loved ones, and make them a part of their wedding ceremony, which was very moving.

Throughout the ceremony, pianist Lucy Bewley played beautifully and made the atmosphere spectacular.
