Stacey and Richard’s Wedding
It’s always a privilege to photograph any wedding, but it’s particularly enjoyable when the couple has made a lot of effort to make the day very much their own. Stacey and Richard ensured that there were plenty of idiosynchracies in the schedule to stamp their mark on the venue for the day. Hopefully some of their quirkiness will show in the photographs.
The Plough and Harrow hotel is a compact hotel in the city of Birmingham that has made plenty of room for larger weddings. The registrar on the day was happy for me to cover the ceremony (always a bonus), and was also highly entertaining, keeping everyone amused during what is often a nervous half hour.

Yes, this is a cake!

The groom is just getting used to that strange new circular thing on his finger:

… and finally we come to the first dance…
