Wedding of Kylie & Elliot, 5th February 2011 at The Olde Bell Hotel, Hurley

My second wedding of the year was back at a familiar venue just south of Henley Upon Thames in the beautiful village of Hurley. The Olde Bell Inn in Berkshire. It is a beautiful old hotel with a fantastic barn which is used for ceremonies and wedding receptions just opposite and where I have been lucky enough to photograph some of my Berkshire weddings in blistering sunshine in the height of summer and also in thick snow in the depths of winter!
Kylie bought her beautiful gown Anoushka by the wedding dress designer Stephanie Allin from my wife's boutique Ellie Sanderson in Beaconsfield along with her fab Rachel Simpson boots so I had no concerns she would look stunning and she certainly did. The gown is very distinctive with a huge black bow on the side and this black and ivory theme extended through to the whole wedding with black organza ribbons on the chairs in the ceremony and even on the cup cakes wedding cake. Kylie also changed into a gorgeous Magpie Vintage bespoke necklace for the evening party which you can see at the end of this sequence of images.
I managed to get some beautiful natural light shots in the room where Kylie got ready before doing the shots with the guys in a side road just near the venue. Despite threatening rain all day the weather was kind and we managed to get all of the shots of the couple outside before we all headed inside to the wedding breakfast.
The first shot in this sequence is just lovely Kylie looks amazing (she has the most beautiful hazel brown eyes) with her mum out of focus in the background of the shot.
