December 2025

December is always mad busy for me with christmas party bookings. However Christmas weddings are always awesome !

Ashfield House. Wigan

I'd been old by numerous suppliers that I'd enjoy Ashfield House. They were not wrong !!

What a venue. Olivia & Ryan choosing a church service first followed by an amazing party back at the venue.

We just about beat the winter early evenings, and were able to get outside for some awesome photos, before partying away into the evening.

St Mary's Church. Astbury.

This is an epic church, and one where I keep getting booked for.

Being able to climb the tiny, 800 years old winding stairs during the ceremony without clattering your cameras or banging your head is a challenge - but so worth it for the view.

Ruth & Ben were flying off to their honeymoon the following morning, but after their brilliant evening party - I hope they made their flight...

Cragwood Country House Hotel. Windermere

My last wedding of the year - on New Years Eve !!

Tracey & Mac - wow what a day. We were blessed with dry (but bloody cold) weather. And fair play to you both for bringing your walking boots for a walk to the lake.

This was a brilliant day and a perfect end to the most excellent year of weddings.


Bring on 20026 !!

Charnock Farm. Leyland

A touching story behind this wedding, which was actually featured on BBC news and in numerous newspapers. Lets just say that for Kim & Matthew to have their son walk down the aisle was an incredible moment.

Great to work alongside Liz Hendry the pianist, and the live artist at this wedding, along with PC roadshows doing their usual excellent things in the evening.
