Carly and Barry's Wedding

Bank Holiday Monday saw us photograph our third wedding in a row, and what a way to finish August!

We didn't meet Carly and Barry until their wedding day, and we can honestly say what a wonderful couple they are.

Mike photographed Carly during her morning preparations at a house in Plymouth, and Barry got ready with Chris taking his photos at Langdon Court on the outskirts of Plymouth.

Langdon Court is an amazing wedding venue that we visited for the first time, and we look forward to the next wedding we photograph here.

Barry was chauffeured from the Court to the Church at nearby Wembury in a beautiful Aston Martin DB9 which Carly had ordered as a surprise! (What a great Wife!)

Upon arriving at the Church, Barry realised that he had forgotten the order of services and the word was sent for an Usher to rush back to the Court to collect them. The Order of services arrived just in time, and the Bridesmaids and Flowergirls turned up just a few minutes later. Carly followed shortly wearing one of the most beautifully detailed dresses, and the longest veil we had seen all year!

After a short but moving service, some small group shots, and confetti throwing the guests departed back to Langdon Court, whilst we took Carly and Barry down to the beach. Despite having really harsh light behind the couple, we got some great shots with a really moody sky.

All the guests had enjoyed a glass of Champagne or Pimms by the time we arrived back, but luckily the caters had saved us back a glass each which we were very grateful for!

A big thank you again to the caters who served us up a big plate full of Hog Roast, which was delicious.

There was a little surprise in store when during the speeches Barry revealed that he and Carly we're expecting their first child!

After the meal we took the couple up into the gardens and got some beautiful photographs as the light was just beautifully soft. Not only are the gardens really photogenic, but there a few old stone sheds which provide a really colourful, bright background.

We wish Carly & Barry all the very best on the birth of their first child.
