Kathryn & Matthew - St Edmunds Church Abingdon & Caswell House Brize Norton 29 October 2011

Another great October Saturday with fine weather, just what we were looking for on Kathryn and Matthew’s big day. Lady Luck was shining on us as I drove to Abingdon with a beautiful deep blue sky. Plenty of activity with a houseful of bridesmaids and a glowing bride! Soon it was time to get over to the church and St Edmunds us one I have covered on a few occasions and it allows for expansive photography partly aided by a brilliant vicar. The bride and father arrived in a classic car and made a wonderful entrance to this lovely ceremony that was heartfelt but with a some great humour. Everyone exited and soon the newlyweds were covered in what can only be described as a confetti storm!!



Onto Caswell House, simply an amazing barn on a working farm in Oxfordshire. This is a new one for me but what a glorious set up, so many options for wedding photography. The reception was in full flow as I arrived with a harpist using the acoustics of the barn to full effect. With champagne and oysters providing a heady mix the tempo of the day started to rise. This was a convenient time to escape with Kathryn and Matt for a few private shots subtlety using the country backdrop. The wedding breakfast had a Halloween theme so plenty of tricks to present themselves as the day progressed! A great party crowd loved this and also some riveting speeches to bring the house down. Just time for a big group shot and cake cutting to leave another super day complete.
