ruth and tim's summer wedding at the walled gardens


I can't quite believe this was almost a year ago and i'm only just getting round to sharing the epic-ness of this beautiful day. So much happiness, smiles and love to be seen in the photos. Have a lil' nosey around!


We started the morning at Beeston Fields where Ruth was getting ready with her bridesmaids and family, a lovely warm July morning with the buzz of excitement everywhere. Shortly after capturing the wonderfully relaxed, happy and very much on time bridal party, it was time to head to the church - a very important part of Ruth & Tim's relationship and community, the Holy Trinity Church in Lenton. A wonderful ceremony followed by cake and tea and a chance to mingle with guests before heading back to the Walled Garden. Arriving a few minutes ahead of the guests for some couple photos before an incredible caterer supplied Paella (one of my fave's as my mum lives in Spain!) and the speeches to follow. The evening atmosphere and dancing was amazing, check out the moves!


A huge thank you to Ruth & Tim for having me along to document the day, the walled gardens for always being an amazing venue (check out their eco-pledge too!) and all the suppliers that make up the team for this incredible day.
