Katie & Ali’s wedding day at Elmore Court

I have not stopped smiling from ear to ear since I got back from Katie & Ali’s epic wedding at Elmore Court.

I am so lucky with my Butties, especially when they’re party people! And boy are Ali & Katie the definition of party people!

The whole day was about fun and having the best party with all their favourite people in one gorgeous place!

Katie is a gorgeous person inside and out, but on her wedding day, WOW! She was a vision! A few comparisons to Margot Robbie, which when you call yourself Barbie, is spot on!

Katie created layers of reveals with her beautiful dress from Tilly’s Bridal Boutique with a gorgeous over skirt and tulle wings creating a twist on a classic bridal look for the church ceremony. Then the layers come off for the party vibe reveal!

Katie’s gorgeous bridal look was brought together with the super talented MUA Gracie Glam MUA and Hair by Georgie Maisey Hair

Mr first visit of the day was with Ali and his groomsmen. As soon as I arrived at their hotel, the shots were out! From this moment I knew Ali & Katies wedding was going to be a blast!

Ace, Ali and Katie’s son was in a matching suit to dad and oh my days did my heart melt when I saw the suits hanging up together!

Ali and his groomsmen looked very dapper in their suits from Thorburn’s 1889

Ali and Katie chose to say their I do’s at Elmore Church, just a stones throw away from Elmore Court. The church ceremony was made extra special with a gospel choir. They brought the roof off the church! They brought so much joy and really got everyone involved in the ceremony!

When you have a bride who is just as excited about confetti as you are, you know it’s going to be be good!

Pink confetti is the best vibe for your wedding and Flutter Darlings delivered the epic goods!

When Ali & Katies arrived back to Elmore Court for their drinks reception in the sunshine (apparently, if you bury a sausage in the garden, this bring you good weather for your wedding day! It worked for Katie) the celebrity arrived… the celeb being their bulldog Sherlock! He even rocked a Hawaiian shirt which is a little nod to Ali’s love of a shit shirt (SNAP! Ali even asked to borrow the shirt I was wearing haha)

Pink flowers and disco ball table decor at Elmore Court

Is this not the most gorgeous table decor you have set your eyes on?!? Wait until you hear the story of these flowers!

The amazing florist of this wedding at Elmore Court was the wonderful Petal and Peach Floral Design aka Rachel, one of Katie’s bridesmaids. Rachel lives in Australia! Katie and Rachel worked together to order everything she needed in the UK. Days before the wedding they were conditioning the flowers together and when the day came, with help from one of Rachel’s friends who also flew over from Australia, they created this gorgeous decor!

It’s safe to say, there was so much love in the room for Ali and Katie! The speeches were so special! From friends in Australia who were there to tell the story of when these beauts met, to old friends here in the UK. I love it when the couple show their emotions during speeches… Ali was a sobbing mess! Remember, there’s no shame in this lads!

After the speeches it was time for the surprise singing waiters. Bravo Singing Waiters did an absolutely brilliant job getting everyone up and dancing at Elmore Court. Especially Kati and Ali! They got Ali and Katie to recreate the lift scene from Dirty Dancing which Katie looked petrified for! Ali did a good job, but then Katie’s dad came down and shoed the room how it’s properly done as Katie ran to him and UP SHE WENT!

Once Katie and Ali had a break from all the dirty dancing, we headed over to the meadow at Elmore Court. We timed it perfectly with Golden hour and honestly, these are the best golden hour photos I have captured. Ali and Katie laughed, held each other and were up for a bit of fun too! When you embrace couple portraits and are up for having fun, you really do get the best portraits!

Bride and groom having their first dance at Elmore Court

I could tell Ali and Katie were itching to get on the dancefloor! They danced all over the dancefloor for their first dance, creating epic dips like this to entertain their guests. As soon as they called their guests down, the dancfloor was full! Apollo Soul were amazing! With the sax man and guitarist coming onto the dancefloor to get involved with the guests, it made for awesome photos! Elmore Court has this awesome disco ball above the dancefloor kicking off light, which was right on theme for Katie and Ali’s wedding.

Bride and groom sat in bathtub having a drink at Elmore Court

Just before it was time for me to leave everyone to party the night away, Katie wanted some fun shots in the master bedroom bathtub! We decided to create a bathtub rave vibe for these portraits and I AM HERE FOR THIS!

Katie and Ali’s wedding at Elmore Court was absolutely gorgeous! I came home itching to start editing!

The day was filled with so much fun, love and laughter I honestly haven’t stopped smiling typing this sneak peek blog!

These two are the kindest should you’ll meet! The love they have for their little rockstar Ace and fur baby Sherlock is a beautiful thing to see! They deserve all the happiness in the world!

Love to you both my crazy Butties! x
