Abi & Chris | Coltsford Mill

After my lovely long honeymoon, I was back at the end of August - very well rested and ready to sink my teeth into my next wedding, which happened to be the lovely wedding of Abi and Chris at Coltsford Mill in Surrey.

First things first, I met Abi and the girls at Abi's parents house for some Bridal Preparation shots. Abi was so relaxed and the mood in the house was so happy and excited, it's always a lovely part of the day to shoot. After capturing some images of hair, make up, dresses and flowers I made my way to the very impressive St Swithun's Church in East Grinstead to meet Chris and his Groomsmen before the Ceremony started. The weather was touch and go, with some guests arriving in glorious sunshine whilst others had to run speedily to get out of the pouring rain!

After the Ceremony, the sun was shining and we all headed out for a few group shots and the throwing of confetti before Abi and Chris were waved off in their beautiful vintage car and the guests hitched their ride on an organised coach.

Once at Coltsford Mill, the reception got underway and guests mingled inside and out enjoying the drinks and sunshine, which luckily now seemed there to stay for the most part. The guests moved inside to enjoy some food followed by lovely speeches, before Abi, Chris and I took the opportunity to capture some more couple shots before the sun went down.

The evening reception was, like the rest of the day, full of fun and I left the happy couple and their guests dancing and singing away after a wonderful day. Many congratulations Abi and Chris x
