It was another trip to South Birmingham at the start of the day for me to be Rachel & Brian’s Ramada Birmingham wedding photographer. It was a very lively houseful when I arrived for Rachel’s prep with Rachel’s dad the only other male in a houseful of girls 🙂
Once again the champagne was flowing & fun & laughter was certainly the order of the day. With Rachel ready in plenty of time there was even time for photos out in the garden & in the sun!
Heading off to church the clouds were building ominously but Brian & the guests were enjoying the time waiting for Rachel’s arrival & it was certainly going to be a full church with so many friends & relatives joining the couple for their big day.
Rachels arrival coincided with a shower of rain so we quickly headed in to enjoy the ceremony at the welcoming St Marys in Harborne.
Unfortunately our exit from church was greeted by a monumental downpour but not to be put off Rachel & Brian were happy to chat with their guests under cover before heading back into the church for a few family photos.
Soon enough it was time to head off across Birmingham to the lovely Ramada Birmingham in Sutton Coldfield. So back on home territory for me then!
time was somewhat against us because of the weather but we had a few minutes for a quick lap of the grounds before it was time for the wedding breakfast & speeches, which were really great, admittedly entirely at Brian’s expense!
Evening was fast drawing in but an interesting sky tempted us out for a last couple of shots before Rachel & Brian’s first dance got the evening celebrations going in splendid form 🙂
