Those of you following the blog may remember seeing some photos of Jodie and Jon's wedding at Chilston Park. It was a soft, pretty, slightly vintage theme and the flowers were predominantly spring flowers in ivory with hints of palest pink and palest lilac. Wraps of lace were used to tie in with Jodie's exquisite dress and scent was so important and added via paperwhites and rosemary.
Their mismatched hurricane lamps on each of the tables were dressed with tulips and rosemary and each table was sprinkled with paperwhite pips.
We loved working on this wedding as Jodie and Jon are such a lovely, natural couple, and having met them several times (and also delivered surprise flowers to Jodie a week in advance of the wedding ....to the minute of the ceremony!), we were caught up in their excitement. When Jodie got in touch yesterday to see whether I would like to see the photos, the only question was really how quickly I could see them. However, not only did I get to see these fantastic photos from Kelvin Brown (
http://www.kelvinbrown.co.uk/), their professional photographer, I got to spend time with Jodie and Jon again as they kindly gave up time in the evening to take me through all their photos.
Their photographer Kelvin Brown hadn't actually shot a wedding at Chilston Park before, but wow...did he make up for it with these photos. The flowers have already been included in their previous blog, but we can't resist including some of Kelvin's photos of them as well. Don't worry, non flower photos are to follow below!
Whilst I love seeing our flowers featuring in the actual wedding, I rarely get to see our wedding couples together on their day as we are long since finished and gone, so I love to see the whole story of their day unfold in the photos. We all knew that Jodie would look amazing (the attention to detail to get the hair, tiara, dress, jewellery and flowers to match so well was lovely), and had already seen how great the boys all looked on the day, but when you see the photos, I'm sure you'll agree that they are beautiful....really classic, timeless images which capture everything about the couple and their special day. I think it makes Chilston Park look like a film set, with Jodie in the starring role as a modern day Audrey Hepburn!
I loved seeing other details of the day, so I will include some of Kelvin's photos minus the flowers just to show you how fabulous the whole day was and how well it was captured on film.....some highlights for me are the bubbles....and the Bulmers Pear (there's an advert if ever I saw one) and the car which belonged to a friend of the family...so evocative and so perfect for Jodie and Jon. I've not included photos of the speeches as you really do need to hear the story Jon's Dad told the wedding party to understand the photos and why some of the guests are hiding their faces!
Thanks so much to Jodie and Jon for taking the time to share these beautiful photos with us, and thanks so much to Kelvin for allowing us to use these fabulous images in our blog.....I think they may be featuring in a new portfolio book soon!
