Charlotte and Sam’s wedding had already been pushed back twice before this day finally happened. That matters, because you could feel it. Not in a heavy way, more like the whole day had a bit more air in it than most. They’re good company, the pair of them. Warm, funny, easy to be around. And […]

Lois and Edd were pretty relaxed about the whole thing, and that made for a good day. Church ceremony in the morning, tipi party in the sunshine after. I missed the turning into the venue on the way there, would have driven straight past it if a couple of guests hadn’t been walking in and […]

January weddings get a bad reputation. The light is low, the guests arrive in coats, and everyone’s slightly recovering from Christmas.

Some days just work. Wendy and John had everything organised well in advance, and it showed, not in a rigid, military-schedule way, but in the easy, nothing-to-worry-about way that makes a wedding day enjoyable.
