Annlouise & Raphael at Alpheton Hall Barns

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning and they did in fact have expert timing!
In a very well planned first dance Annlouise, Raphael and the younger guests put on quite a show for the first dance!

It was an unseasonably windy July day at Alpheton Hall Barns near Sudbury. Annlouise, Raphael and guests had all travelled in from London for an idyllic wedding in the countryside.

They really wanted to keep me on my toes, no other couple have literally ran at me down the aisle after the ceremony and this was not the only highlight.

The speeches were thoughtful and significant; Annlouise’s mum had some moving words and one of the bridesmaids read out this wonderful extract from Plato’s Symposium.

It was such a relaxed, fun, and stylish wedding, with moody skies and some fantastic dazzling displays on the dance floor. The perfect start.
