Jenny and Will's London wedding

Rob and I jumped in the car yesterday, leaving Norfolk behind us in order to photograph Jenny and Will's London wedding. 

They chose to hold their ceremony inside The Library at Dulwich College which was a very cute little building situated within the grounds of the college, then it was down the road to The Rosendale pub for drinks, nibbles and games.

Jenny and Will opted for half a days coverage which meant we captured their day from the ceremony until the wedding breakfast. This option is perfect for smaller weddings, especially if you are getting married in a registry office then moving onto an intimate reception venue.

Full blog post showing more from the couples special day will be posted in a couple of weeks but for now, here's a sneak peek...

6 bridesmaids, one hen do in Bath and a wedding at Southwood Hall.

Last year, one of my best friends - Poppy - announced that she was engaged to her long term boyfriend Greg and shortly after she asked me to be one of her 6 bridesmaids. I blogged about this a few months ago, you can read all about it by clicking here



I am a very lucky girl to have such a close group of friends who have maintained our friendship since we were at high school and all Poppy's friends were absolutely over the moon and so excited about helping her plan her big day. 




At the beginning of August, Poppy's sister Lucy surprised Poppy with a trip to Bath for her hen do and all her closest friends came. It was a brilliant weekend and we showered Poppy with presents, games, lots of wine and a fantastic Italian meal.


Sisters Lucy and Molly prepared all Poppy's friends cute little gift bags filled with mini bottles of prosecco, pamper products, sweets and party poppers.


Now, as we all know, what happens on the hen do, stays on the hen do, but it's safe to say we all had a brilliant time eating, drinking and being very merry.




Fellow Bridesmaid Nina (below!), who is a wedding coordinator at wedding venue Devonshire Terrace in London, got crafty with some flowers and wire and created all the girls a beautiful headband with a special one for Poppy that had a veil attached.



Some slightly fuzzy iPhone photos showing off Poppy's hen outfit.

Poppy's beautiful sisters, Lucy and Molly, who made sure the hen do went off without a hitch.


The hen!


The girls!


Obviously being a bridesmaid meant being off duty and without a camera for most of the day but I did manage to grab a few (if not a little fuzzy!) iPhone pics of some of the details!




Poppy chose some wonderful suppliers, such as Sarah Alderton from The Florist Hut for the flowers, her cousin Vikki from Body and Skin Care Clinic to do her makeup and Amanda Curd Photography to take her professional photos. I also recommended a close friend - Rachel Prendergast - who is amazing at baking, to do her wedding cupcakes.
