A Bristol Wedding Story

Once the hungry guests had been seated the meal was served. Everyone tucked into a delicious feast of food on long harvest-style tables under the fairy lights.

The speeches were a highlight of the evening, with heartfelt words from the father of the bride, the best man, and the bride herself.  Oscar’s speech, in particular, was a perfect blend of sentimentality and humour, as he spoke about the long journey him and Hope had been on to get to this day.

As the sun began to set, it was time for some truly magical golden hour photos at Brandon Hill. Hope was dead keen on some photos at sunset and Oscar had been less keen. Hope practically ran up the hill as I warned her that the light was fading fast. Once we reached the top, it was evident how spectacular the light was going to look as it set over Bristol city. I decided to show Oscar some of what I was capturing on the back of my camera. He was truly blown away and immediately realised that it had been worth the time and effort to climb to the top of the park! The couple, glowing with happiness, strolled hand in hand through the park, with the iconic Cabot Tower in the background. The golden light bathed them in a soft, warm glow.  

Back at the reception, the band had arrived, and they had an issue. The drummer had unfortunately been caught in a car accident on the way to the event and the guitarists and singer were without the drums! Fortunately, the drummer was safe, the issue was quickly resolved and it wasn’t long before the band got started. The newly-weds had already cut the cake and though they hoped to sneak away for a private first dance, the wedding guests had cottoned on and quickly arrived to watch them spin around the dance floor! Fortunately for the bride and groom, the guests couldn’t be kept off the dancefloor for long, and soon enough everyone was wildly dancing and shaking to the beat of the music. The atmosphere was nothing short of electric as everyone hit the dance floor to celebrate with the newlyweds.
