Fran and Peter were married at Woodhall Manor on 18th April 2009.

Woodhall Manor is a stunning venue, and was refurbished in 2008 with an interior designers touch. The room that Fran and Gina got ready in was absolutely gorgeous.

Peter, before the wedding

Phil, the best man, was unable to resist a ‘deliberate mistake’ when handing over the wedding rings. It temporarily foxed the registrars but caused Fran and Peter a huge amount of mirth.

The trees were in blossom, the sun dappled acroos the grass… a portrait from a magical day…

Fran’s delight at Peter’s completion of the famous ‘John Barnes Rap.’

Best man Phil did a great speech. He explained Peter has a knack for remembering un-necessary details – especially song lyrics. This was demonstrated by asking Peter to recite the “John Barnes Rap” from the 1990 England World Cup song. He was word perfect… if you’d like to see the original, click here

A promise I make to all my clients is that if there was an GB Olympic team for first dance photography, then not only would I be on it, but I’d be the captain. Peter reminded me of this promise shortly before stepping onto the dancefloor…

A thank-you from Fran:

“Absolutely brilliant! A great taster of the perfect day and superb photography. Can’t wait to view the full day!”

A thank-you from Peter’s Mum:

“Dear Mark and Bronwyn,

Thank you for attending Peter and Fran’s wedding and taking loads of photos with such care and attention to detail. We are looking forward to viewing the whole package.

I thought the wedding “blog” was great; very funny! It shows your great sense of humour. Its been my experience that humour is sometimes lacking in wedding photographers!

Once again many thanks for all the effort the pair of you put into the event.

Best Wishes, Carole Day”
