A romantic wedding at Aldborough Church followed by an elegant reception at Headingley Stadium in Leeds

Bridal Prep photography started at Sarah's home in Headingley and it was an absolute buzz of excitement with the bride, four bridesmaids, three flower girls, mum and dad! Every little detail had been planned down to a tee and so everyone was relaxed.. maybe except for when Sarah asked her mum "Mum, why do you seem anxious?" and she replied "Because I'm your daughter!!" Haha whoops.. think she meant mum! That caused some big giggles!

The flower girls and bridesmaids were all up for lots of fun and so we got some great shots!

And there are not many moments cuter than the moment when all the bridesmaids see the bride in her dress for the very first time...

Then it was on to Aldborough Church to see the men.. who were waiting in the pub, of course! Luckily for me they were just as excited for the day and let me talk them in to posing for a few pre-wedding photos...

The guests started to arrive, followed by the bridal party. The Church service was beautiful...

After the ceremony was filled with hundreds of hugs and kisses, lots of confetti and a prosseco van on the village green! What more could a wedding guest want...

Finally it was on to Headingley Carnegie Stadium for the reception.. there was a cricket match on once we arrived for guests to enjoy and the weather was definitely in favour of the day. The room was decorated elegantly to fit in nicely with the gorgeous afternoon tea served and speeches! My day ended photographing guests having a boogie to the Grease megamix, cake cutting and some sparkler fun with 150+ people! I left them partying the night away after a fantastic day.
