A very Precious Wedding

Sarah & Andrew were married in September at The Rutland Hotel, Sheffield. A almost boutique hotel with eclectic charm. It has traditional Victorian Character teamed with contemporary designs.
Add into the mix of being in the heart of Sheffield City Centre, a hotel with its own grounds is something of a novelty.

I started the afternoon with Sarah up in the room getting the finishing touches together. Sarah & Andrew only wanted me for half-day coverage which is something that I could accommodate.

Their friend originally saw me at Doncaster Racecourse Wedding Fayre, and passed my details on to Sarah, as her friend had already got her Wedding Photographer booked. (She told Sarah that if she hadn't she was booking me)

On the day itself, I had Dawn Matthews second shooting for me, and Sarah & Andrew were also using Videographer Steven from Forever Film who is fabulous to work with and I would highly recommend him to any bride & groom who are looking for a Wedding Videographer.

Their Nephew read a funny poem out which is great for children to read at the Wedding, called "Weddings"

If you go to a wedding, here’s what it means

No one wears trainers and no one wears jeans

Your best new clothes are all that you wear

And everyone in your whole family is there

Even some cousins that you’ve never known

And the grown-ups all say “Oh, how much you have grown!”

So everyone’s sitting in one big room

(except {Bride} and {Groom}, the bridge and groom)

Then all of a sudden things quieten down

And music starts playing and people turn round

And really slowly, {Bride} walks in

And she’s prettier now than she’s ever been.

She’s a bride and she’s really great looking today

(when normally she looks just kind of okay)

She walks in and stands with her dad for a while

As {Groom} her boyfriend, awaits in the aisle

His hair is all combed and he’s wearing a tie

And then {Bride}’s mum starts to sniffle and cry.

And now it comes time for the “get-married” part

The Registrar says that we’re ready to start

So she talks and she talks about serious things

Then their friend {best man} steps up holding two rings

He gives one to the groom and the other to the bride

Then his girlfriend, {name} pulls him aside.

Then {Bride & Groom} kind of look at each other

And another big sniffle comes from {Bride}'s mother

And {Bride & Groom} put on the wedding rings

And they talk and they promise each other some things

They promise that they’ll love each other a lot

And help one another no matter what

And be with each other the rest of their life

Then the Registrar says “Now you are husband and wife”.

Then everyone’s in such a big happy mood

And you go to a party with very much food

Where you dance with some grown-ups and drink some wine

And then do a conga-dance in one long line

‘till {Bride & Groom} drive off in a car

and everyone’s thinking how happy they are

So we all yell goodbye and throw handfuls of rice

Then the whole thing is over. Weddings are nice!

Photographs commenced in the Gardens, with drinks and confetti that was thrown.
Before we all went inside for a delicious meal (and yummy brownies!)
