Ali and Dave booked me to photograph their wedding at Combermere Abbey back in 2007 and I couldn’t wait to conclude the great set of weddings by sharing Ali and Daves day with them. Having known Ali and Dave for a number of years following photographing Ali’s brother’s wedding to Nic in 2004 it was great to finally share Ali and Dave’s special day with them!
A great day was had by all at the stunning Combermere Abbey Glasshouse on 10th May, and it really was a true pleasure to be part of everything with them, especially being close to so many other members of the wedding party. Having started the journey in 2004 with Nic and Phil who were married at the Botannical Gardens in Birmingham, to then photograph Lisa + Richards wedding at Christchurch in Lichfield and Newton Park the following year and Faye + Ade’s at St Nicholas’ Church in Codsall and Madeley Court in Telford in 2007 it was nice to be in the company of friends!
To be a guest at the wedding as well as the photographer meant a great deal, and to truly feel like a friend with everyone there made a great day even more special. Ali’s Dad set the scene when he said “you’re one of the family”…to have built such a close relationship with a group of people says a great deal for the way we are and the way we work…
Here are a few of my favourites from Ali + Dave’s stunning wedding at the Glasshouse in the grounds of Combermere Abbey, a true pleasure to document a wedding at.
