Today I have for you the wedding of Kirsty and Matt who got married at one of my favourites, Cripps Barn near Bibury in Gloucestershire. You may remember Kirsty and Matt from their engagement shoot in Bibury. I’ve been looking forward to sharing this with you as it was, for me, a pretty perfect wedding day. They got married outside at Cripps Barn which is something they have only just started doing so I think Kirsty and Matt are one of the first (if not the first?) to do this. It was a gorgeous summer day which stayed with us for the entire day which was fortunate as it meant that the majority of the day (and night, as many guests camped in the field next to the Barn) could happen outside. They even had their first dance outside while the amazing Ashmore Acoustics played their song (Stand By Me), a quick word about this acoustic duo, they are amazing, so amazing that I am trying to think of a party I can have just so that they can play at it :) (if I am shooting your wedding, please hire them :D ) The afternoon had a warmth and energy to it that was so nice to be around and that’s partly due to the awesome music and partly due to the people who felt carefree enough to dance on the lawn in the sunshine, also picnic blankets to sit on gave a relaxed feel. Not only had Kirsty and Matt decided to get married at Cripps Barn, chosen a fantastic musical act AND an awesome photographer (ha :D ) they had also chosen my good friend Louise of Cirencester Cupcakes to do their wedding cakes and she had really outdone herself, check them out! Kirsty and Matt have very simular music taste to me so I found all of the music themed stuff really fun, their friend had made their seating chart out of band CD covers and had writen the names in the same fonts used for the songs on the actual CD, how cool is that?! These two are completely head over heels for each other and it radiates from them when they are together which is so nice to be around. Anyway, getting carried away, check out some of the photos!
The cake on the top is like a stack of records and the the top one is Stand By Me :)
Even putting one of me up, eek! Taken by Kirsty’s lovely maid of honour.
