Jill & William’s wedding at St Mary’s church in Weldon

Jill and William got married at St Mary’s church in Weldon, Northamptonshire, and then had their wedding reception at Boughton House.

The house rules on photography at Weldon church have previously been very strict. ‘No photos at all’ kind of strict. But that’s all changed since the arrival of a new vicar. So it was a pleasure to be able to capture the whole of William and Jill’s ceremony.

The reception was very relaxed with drinks outside on The West Front terrace. And that was followed by dinner and dancing in a marquee. The views are stunning in every direction, so the clear walls of the marquee made the most of the setting. And I loved their elegant take on rustic styling. The bar (yes, the entire bar) and table plan were made by Jill’s Dad – what a hero!

This was one of those weddings where everything just came together. A happy and relaxed couple who did nothing but enjoy themselves. Realistic timings. Cooperative clergy. An incredibly photogenic reception venue. A stellar choice of suppliers. And even good weather (except for that bit after dinner!).
