GBBO! It’s that time again…  every time I hear this tune I’m transported back to H&A’s epic three-day wedding extravaganza.  H was and is a GBBO fanatic, so it made sense that the ‘coming in to cut the cake’ moment was almost as significant as the ‘coming in to marry the husband’ one… (he knows his place in her affections).   The most sensational setting and the finest suppliers in their fields – the epitome of wedding glamour – culminating in a secret nightclub which came as a total surprise to guests. And the BEST clients-now-friends, adored by their families, both distinguished doctors, seemingly undaunted by the arrival of three small boys in their lives since this amazing moment…

Wasn't expecting this job (last-minute booking) and as is often the case, it turned out to be one of my absolutely favourites. Stunner of a bride, absolutely heavenly family, perfect intimate exclusive setting at Manor of Hurst, a South African braai and a LOT of dancing. Felt embarrassingly unlike work....

One year anniversaries coming thick and fast. This one an entirely home-grown/made/built/supplied/decorated/catered/flowered by the multi-talented Newtons at (Battle of Britain nerds might be surprised to see the Rolls Royce Merlin 724-1C liquid-cooled 27 litre V12 piston aircraft engine with supercharger.. you could hardly fail to be impressed by the earth-shattering roar as it was started up in honour of the bride and groom - who have named their son Merlin… happy anniversary L&G! x ✈️🚀

Happy 1st Anniversary - can you believe how fast that’s gone? Totally stunning day in Charmouth, some ninja confetti-dodging, dancing with Golden Cap in the background (scene of the engagement), a sailboat as a bar, the most dramatically cantilevered marquee I’ve ever seen (bravo ) and a surprise message for the bride from her professional rugby player crush 😍. Happy to do it all over again if you are? Love this girl gang - more connected weddings to come! xx

Not sure quite where to begin with this one. Too much to say, so much to share - but in essence it was the happiest, most ‘meant to be’,
most personal, meaningful, joyous and above all exquisitely musical of blissful days. Just these two images will make a lot of people I know and love feel happy and uplifted this morning - as I’ve felt every moment since Saturday and during the edit 🥰 🤗 @ Wi******er College

In my inbox this morning:

'Just a little note to wish you and the family well. Can you believe it’s our sixth anniversary this weekend? We love browsing through the fabulous photos that you took, and have great memories of the part you played in our special day. You saved the day with the bridesmaids’ flowers, when, at the last minute, you turned one little bouquet into two for the girls. How can I thank you enough?' Rachel

Well, I'm not known for my flower-arranging skills (ahem) but I had forgotten this moment. Gorgeous happy wedding at Kenworth - six years ago feels like a lifetime... 👰💍

Given this was the day of the Klitchko/Joshua bout, this seemed appropriate alpha male behaviour from the ushers 💪🏻

Happy anniversary to you lovely pair - it was WET that day but your joy was undimmed. And if you're wondering, yes it is...
