Ange & Andy's Wedding - Moor Park Mansion - Rickmansworth - London

After a very long drive down to London the day before the wedding I was met at the hotel by Andy's sister Sharon & invited down to meet everyone in the hotel bar. I was made to feel like one of the family by both the Milne's & the Brennan's. The next day I headed off to the hotel where Ange was staying to photograph the bridal preparations. Ange looked absolutely stunning in her Justin Alexander dress & the contrasting colour of the bridesmaids dresses really finished it off very well.

The wedding was held at Moor Park Mansion in Rickmansworth. This superb building is full of colour & history with wall to ceiling paintings in every room. Apparently there were bets on whether Andy would cry when he first saw Ange, when he read his vows or at the speeches.......... he cried at all three but I dont think he was the only one as even for me it was hard to not have a tear in my eyes.

The weather was fantastic & so I had plenty of time for photographs outside, around the grounds of Moor Park Mansion & then later because of its spectacular interior I got some stunning shots of the couple on the stairs.

I had a great little assistant helping with the lights & dress on the indoor shots, thanks Sarah Louise I couldn't have managed without you, you're a little gem!!!!

I decided to follow the 2 coaches of guests back to our hotel as I really didn't want to trust my sat nav. Ange & Andy came back to the hotel for a few drinks with everyone & I think they eventually closed the bar at 3am so it was rather a late one but another great chance to speak to everyone before they left for Italy.

Thanks Ange & Andy for being great & very accommodating, you look great together as I think everyone will agree.

Here are a handful of images from their day.

Ange & Andy's Pre Wedding Shoot - Moor Park Mansion - Rickmansworth - London

We met at the venue for Ange & Andy's wedding & WOW what a venue!!! Moor Park mansion domiates acres of beautiful countryside in Rickmansworth. With outstanding huge corinthian columns & exceptional ornate fine art wrapping around the walls & ceilings, Moor Park Mansion really is an exquisite venue!!

Ange & Andy met over 2 years ago. Andy an ex-para was drawn to Ange when he was overseeing the I.T department move & well the rest is history!

The weather that day had to be the freakiest weather, one minute it was blue sky & sun & the next thick stormy clouds & heavy rain with thunder & lightening. I read in the following days paper, that day London had 3 months of rain fall in an afternoon.

I had a chat with Ange about the dress which sounds fabulous & I can't wait to see it! Ange has a great look & in the dress she described to me, she'll look out of this world!!

I look forward to meeting again at the end of this month for their wedding. Here are some of the images taken on their pre shoot.
