Katie & Richard’s Beaulieu Abbey Wedding
What a Beaulieu-ful day! (Sorry, just couldn’t resist) Katie & Richard got married in the gorgeous surroundings of Beaulieu Abbey on a hot and sunny June day. The historic church was a grand setting for the ceremony and we got some great bride and groom pictures outside in the ruins of the old Abbey afterwards. (thanks to best man Gareth for the last minute check on access!) Somehow with the biggest zoom lens I could hold I did manage to get that shot of Richard’s shoes- don’t know if everyone spotted those 
After a speedy horse and carriage ride through the New Forest they celebrated with their guests at the Beaulieu hotel. My thanks to everyone for making me feel so welcome. All credit goes to Katie for her unrehearsed speech- Now I know why her dad was wearing those sunglasses coming up to the church. Evening celebrations kicked off with a classy choreographed first dance and I left as everyone was dancing away to the band.
Katie & Richard, hope you had a fabulous day and enjoyed every minute of it, and my very best wishes for luck and happiness in the future.
