Helen and Paul's Sunny Wedding Day

For most of the week running up to Helen and Paul's wedding there was rain in the air - it seems to have been that way for all the weddings I've covered this year. But on the big day itself, the sun was out and it made for a very happy day. Paul had spared no expense in making this a special day for his lovely bride and he was full of excitement as he waited in the church for Helen to arrive:



Helen was radiant and enjoyed posing in the bridal car before the ceremony:



The ceremony itself was packed with humour:



The reception was held at Putteridge Bury, Hertfordshire. It's one of the region's finest venues and Helen and Paul were happy to spend a little time strolling round the grounds making the most of the photo opportunities it offers:



The wedding cake reflected the humour of the day. Here's a shot of one of the three tiers:



Helen's mother made a very moving speech which, as you can see here, was much appreciated by her daughter:



The evening entertainment began with a very atmospheric first dance. I was almost drowned in dry ice as I lay on the floor to capture this shot:



What a fun day - and I'm sure the evening was great too. Helen and Paul, I hope you get a chance to view this while you're on honeymoon in the Maldives. Thanks for being great to work with and I look forward to seeing you both when you get back.
