Nic and Alan marry at South Farm

Top of every bride's wish list must be great weather on their special day.   The sun shone, the gardens looked beautiful, and everyone seemed overjoyed!  It really was a perfect day for the perfect wedding. Nic and Alan were married at South Farm, it's immaculate, enchanting and romantic, you can see just why they in love with this amazing Wedding venue. The couple had picked lavender from Hitchin Lavender farm, which they used on the tables.  The flowers were stunning, echoeing the lavender tones. A beautiful nature theme teamed with this glorious setting set the whole day alight.

The farm is so pretty, full stocked flowerbeds, goats, hens and  baby piglets, an old farmhouse, tumble down gypsy caravans and old farm machinery dotted around. So many great shots to be had.

A friend had hand drawn a beautiful tree and guests were invited to leave a 'leaf' thumb print, to join the two little 'bride and groom' birds.24_sharon_cooper_nic_alan.jpg

It was such a pleasure to photograph this wedding, massive thanks to all the great staff at South Farm, and all the family and friends who made the day such fun to record. I'd suggested some light painting in the evening, working with the nature theme, and as Alan is a tree Surgeon - I decided to get the groom's friends to help 'light paint' some trees.  This was a real fun part of the photos, and big thanks to them for their effort and enthusiasm!!

Thank you again for all your dedication and hard work throughout the entire day.
