Continuing from part 1 where Katie had just made her entrance…
When Katie came to stand by Alex, she did a cute little gesture of leaning her head into his shoulder and spent at least the first five minutes at the front trying not to cry! Alex’s best man Rob had the rings, readings were given by Alex’s older sister and father, and there were no objections from the crowd!
Following the ceremony, Katie went to speak to her father on skype whilst the guests readied themselves outside with their bubbles. Alex and Katie had arranged for a classic red double decker bus to take the guests across to the reception venue, The Riverbank.
Alex and Katie wanted a really chilled out wedding, so instead of having a table plan they had tables arranged and everyone just sat wherever they wanted. The wedding dinner was a buffet of burgers, hotdogs and chips served with salad and brownies.
Once everyone had eaten, the maids of honour and best people (Alex’s sister was a best woman!) gave speeches and the bride and groom did their thank you’s. Poor Alex was made to dress up in a pink tutu and a few of his drunken shopping trolley escapades were alluded to, which was hilarious for everyone else!
After that they cut the beautiful cake which was also themed in navy blue and green and had their first dance to Fleetwood Mac’s Everywhere before everyone joined them and got down to a mix of old and new pop provided by DJ John. Katie also shared a dance to her favourite song with her two best friends from the US.
I just want to add congratulations to both Alex and Katie for hiring me to photograph their fun and relaxed wedding, I had a lovely time, and I hope you enjoy the photos!
