Aleena +Richard make Monday weddings cool!

A wedding on a Monday - that's a rare treat for a Brit like me... Mondays are usually full of editing the weekends weddings.. blogging (ok, ok, not that often)... admin'ing... houseworkin'... (yes I do!) and study...ing.

So check how it turned out when good friends Aleena and Richard got married a couple weeks back at the Botanical Gardens in Birmingham:

Edit - This comment was sent to me on facebook today, from the bride above: "Monday weddings are made cool by close family, loads of friends and one brilliant photographer. Thanx babe!!

If the Bride wants fairytale... she gets fairytale!

Everything was spot on... the weather, the venue, the dress, the shoes, the car, the golf buggies, the duke of marlborough ... hold on! Golf buggies? the duke? the weather?! Yes!

Had a great day shooting the wedding of Nicky and Mark on Saturday, starting out at Nicky's house in Warwick, then the ceremony at St Mary's in Warwick and onwards to the reception at the one and only Blenheim Palace , a world heritage site that is home to the Duke and Duchess of Marlborough (they live in the wing next to the wedding reception venue) and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill.

Golf buggies were hired to zip around the Palace grounds, and the weather was just amazing. Honestly I could spend hours in those grounds taking photographs of beautiful brides and grooms! Really looked forward to it and really enjoyed the time I spent there. Wedding photography is definitely a privilege, I don't care how corny that sounds!

Big thanks to everybody on behalf of the couple and myself. Both venues were stunning and the fairytale wedding was one to remember!
