It was an honour to be with Michelle and Phillip as they became Husband and wife in the beautiful Italian Gardens at Champneys Eastwell Manor in Kent.

The sun shone (I got a little burnt!) and after a very relaxing morning with the girl, Michelle looked lovely in her dress designed by Stephanie Allin Couture from Clementine Bridal. The girl’s hair and makeup was expertly applied by Hannah from Beauty By Hannah Hennessy.

We caught up with a smart looking Philip and his Groomsmen wearing suits from Dapper Menswear in Dorking, on the palatial steps of the Manor House.  All went swimmingly and the ceremony was beautiful. With the ongoing covid mask restrictions still in place, thankfully the fine weather meant their ceremony was held in the stunning grounds with everyone feeling very safe in the fresh air and beautiful surroundings.

After the ceremony we spent some time with the couple and their lovely family and friends shooting a mixture of formal groups shots requested by the couple as well as capturing lots of those candid moments and natural smiles as they made up for lost time with those they had not been allowed to see during lockdown. Bridal photos were made extra special by stunning flowers from Emily and Me Wedding Florist.

Their afternoon and early evening was spent eating fabulous food supplied by Eastwell Manor’s gourmet Restaurant, and spending time with their loved ones.  The wedding cake by Hanna’s Cake Creations looked amazing! We left the couple that evening after a fabulous day to embark on the rest of their married life.

Thank you Michelle and Phillip, it was a pleasure to be with you on your special day and we wish you all the very best for a long and happy married life together!
