Once again I have left a wedding with a song stuck in my head, this time it is LMFAO Party Rock Anthem. This was one of the floor fillers that the DJ played at Roger and Lien’s wedding, even the parents joined in with the boogie. Roger and Lien exchanged vows at Buckinghamshire Golf Club which was one of the loveliest grounds and courses I have seen for a while with rolling fairways that that puts some of the greens I have played on to shame. All credit to Roger who seem to have an end to end smile every time I pointed my lens at him and who would blame him, he is married his gorgeous wife Lien who looked stunning. It was also nice to reunite with some Kenny and Loretta who’s wedding I photographed last August in Windsor. Roger delivered an emotional and heartfelt speech and it was clear that he had a close bond to his grandmother, which reminded me of Loretta’s wedding where I remember seeing the same thing with her grandmother. After attending so many weddings, I feel they are not only a celebration of matrimony but also one of the best opportunities for people just to say thank you to their loved ones.
Dancing on the Ceiling by Lionel Richie was my lasting memory when leaving Tom and Chean’s wedding. Some weddings I photograph, the guests take a while to warm up and dip their toes onto the dance floor, not in this case where the DJ tore the house down with Lionel’s classic 80’s hit with all the guests joining in after the first dance. I have to thank Tom and Chean for being just incredibly nice and providing me with such a colourful and memorable wedding to capture. Proceedings kicked off with the ceremony at Dulwich College, even though I have been in London for a number of years, this was not a part of London I had visited and Dulwich which is just lovely, although relatively close to central London feels very much like you are in a village in the countryside. Moving on to China Boulevard in Wandsworth where the evening ceremony began, kicking off with a nice drinks reception moving on to a Chinese banquet and finishing off with the dancing.
