Congratulations to the newlyweds Natalie & Will, an amazing couple who are so so loved by everyone in attendance! It was my first time shooting a wedding at Walled Garden, Baumber in Woodhall Spa and what a stunning venue it was! There were flowers and quirky little nooks everywhere you looked.
Despite the rain, we braved an outdoor ceremony under a marquee and took in all of the stunning sights and smells of the surrounding gardens.
Our story
Tell us all about your ‘the beginning!’
We have had family connections from a young age as our parents have been friends since before their twenties. Will and the brides sister have also known each other years and have socialised in the same circle for a number of years. We became Facebook friends, Natalie invited Will to her 30th celebrations; and Will sent flowers to Natalie on her birthday. The rest was history following our first date in The Fish, Cleethorpes!
When and where did you get engaged?
Eden roc hotel, Kalithea, Rhodes, Greece, 4th September, 2021.
What style/theme have you chosen for your wedding?
Fresh – whites, creams, golds & sage green.
What are you most looking forward to on the day?
Seeing wills face at the top of the aisle as I walk down with my dad. And when he realises the song I’m walking down to is you’ll never walk alone (he’s a huge Liverpool fan).
What are your top tips for other nearly-weds?
It’s your day; do what you & your fiancé want and don’t make decisions based on family members wants!
