A Hertfordshire Wedding at the Bobsleigh Hotel...

Suzanne and Leigh are a lovely couple who'd found out about us through some friends.

They're based very close to their venue for the day, The Bobsleigh Hotel and while Suzanne pampered herself getting ready in the morning at the hotel, Leigh spent the morning at his parent's house with the groomsmen. We won't mention the activities of the night before Leigh...! An extension of the Stag weekend perhaps?

So the weather had been looking good, but with the forecasts predicting heavy rain for the weekend, I was cautiously excited for this one.

Having visited the groom, and after receiving and in depth history of his gorgeous Lambretta scooter, it was on to Suzzanne for the bridal prep shots. Lovely light in the room and a great atmosphere meant for some great shots.

The day progressed with a real buzz about it, the weather was fantastic, probably the best weekend of the year, and the couple were a joy to work with, along with a venue that didn't make life difficult, it was hard to ask for more!

We ended up staying well into the evening reception after shooting the first dance, and I heard some of the guests were up partying until 4AM...

I'm excited about showing them their images and looking forward to their return from honeymoon.

Here are some of my favourites from the day...
