Dave & Emma's wedding, Breadsall Priory, Derby - part one

Right here goes!

Emma and Dave chose a venue they were familiar with; Breadsall Priory - they apparently attended 2 weddings in one weekend at this venue last year............ not as over eager wedding crashers, but as wedding photographers!! Yes I was photographing one photographer getting married to another photographer! Argh!

After a relaxing childfree night at the venue, I met up with my assistant for the day, Andy; an up and coming wedding photographer, who proved to be a good model while we set up lights in the morning... Once we had blethered over coffee, we recced the venue together and found the stunning ceremony room; the black and white touches made us think we were in for a slightly different wedding dress on Emma....

We went to find the bride in her bridal suite getting ready. It was easy to find that room...My first glimpse of the dress proved to Andy and I's thoughts on a black and white dress were wrong!! I didn't get to see Emma much to begin with, I think the stress of the morning was beginning to get her a little. It was a little different being on the other side of the camera I think! She popped her head out of the bathroom every so often!

Emma was so sure that the bridal suite was going to be tidy for the photos..... hmmmmmmmm...It was a bit chaotic to say the least! There were lots of stunning ladies in this room, I was thinking the bride was going to be smothered by gorgeous gals! Dannii the youngest was just a doll! So many pretty ladies!

Mum and daughter, as stunning as each other, like sisters. How wonderful to have these ladies in your bridal party!
So many lovely ladies, what was the bride going to look like in that red dress? Check out tomorrow!
