SEE ALL MARK & MELISSAS WEDDING PICTURES ON-LINE HERE

I seem to have lived at the Bolholt Hotel recently but at least you get to know all the nooks and crannies to use. Mark & Melissa were married in the Summerfield suite and were surrounded by their friends and family. I dont think I have had a much bigger Bridal Party in all my years of weddings, 1 Best Man, 5 Bridesmaids, 7 Ushers and 2 pageboys kept me on my feet all day but allowed me to get some great images. The Summerfield Suite only holds around 60 guests so I know that weddings there are going to be and intimate affair. Everybody was great and even though the heavens opened on us we managed to use the many places at The Bolholt were we could get some cover. The guests were looking at us as if we were crazy but it was worth it.

I hope you have a great evening and a good time in Florence. See you in a couple of weeks.

With close on 500 weddings under my belt I assume that I have come across most things in my time but its always nice to get a surprise every now and then. When Andy & Tammy came to the pre wedding meeting it was the first time their wedding plans were revealed. Andy & Tammy were married years ago and had separated  only to get back together and decide to do the full wedding thing again. What a brilliant plan !!!!

You could tell right from the start what kind of day it was going to be – A proper family affair !!

The wedding and the reception were at The Bolholt Hotel in Walshaw and what a great day we had wandering round the gardens and lakes. The weather was again a bit changeable but like so many times before we managed to get all the shots done in the dry.

I hope you have a great time in Cyprus with all the family and see you an a couple of weeks.

I finally think we might have said goodbye to the cold weather and snow. Another sunny day greeted us at The Bolholt Hotel for Michael & Susan’s wedding.

All the guests seemed to enjoy the weather with summer dresses and drinks on the lawn. We all had a great day and I hope you enjoyed your holiday in America.

It was nice to see a lot of familiar faces at Wayne & Suzanne’s wedding, its a great feeling when you are trusted to do another wedding in the family.

The weather was kind to us considering it was the beginning of April and me and the guys met at Dundee UR Church in Ramsbottom. All was well until I mentioned the lack of mens button holes. After what seemed like hours of blank looks and frantic phone calls they were tracked down to the boot of the wedding car which was by now back at Suzanne’s house !! Luckily somebody volunteered to rush them back to the church and then the wedding could commence. This was the only hitch in what turned out to be a beautiful wedding, the weather was superb and all the guests looked like they had a great time.

We arrived at the Bolholt Hotel in Walshaw in glorious sunshine and spent some lovely time taking photographs in the stunning grounds of the hotel. It was a privileged to photograph your wedding and I hope you like the results.

PS. It was nice to hear that you managed to get a couple of extra days on honeymoon because of a certain volcano.
