The Details

I couldn’t let the year end without blogging Ali and Rich’s wedding from October. What a lovely couple they are and their beautiful wedding was such a fun day!

Ali and Rich were married in early October at All Saints Church in Crowborough, followed by a reception at the Spa Hotel in Tunbridge Wells. Rich is a fireman, so it was only fitting that he travel from the hotel to the church in a vintage fire truck! This meant that Jim was very excited in the lead up to their wedding as he was hoping he’d be able to hitch a ride with the boys to the church. Much to his delight, he did and I have to say it was the highlight of his year, thanks Rich!!

The Preparations

I joined Ali during the morning at their home where she was getting ready with her mum and her bridesmaids. It was a relaxed morning and as usual the time flew by in a flash! Ali has the most beautiful long hair and her hairdressers from Reem in Crowborough spent quite a while creating the most lovely up-do for her and she looked stunning in her gorgeous wedding gown.

The Spa Hotel Reception

After their ceremony they headed off to the Spa Hotel in a vintage car ahead of their guests. We took the opportunity to grab their couple shots while their guests were arriving so that they didn’t spend too long away from everyone. Their toastmaster Peter Tautz helped us to gather everyone together for their family group shots before heading into their wedding breakfast.

Their speeches were some of the funniest I have heard for a while and the best man really pulled out all stops with his selection of pictures of the groom over the years! Rich himself went the extra mile and sang a song to his lovely new bride, it was brilliant!

Here’s a selection of pics from their day.
