It snowed!!  Yes!  Ok, the snow was cold  - very cold – but it looked so nice.  Claire and I managed a bit of forward planning (wellies were brought to the wedding!).  

Chris and his best man, Johnny, enjoyed a traditional shave at Bauhaus, Corbridge (01434 633111).  Johnny was very stressed about his speech, although he needn’t have worried, it was great.   

Claire looked stunning in her Benjamin Roberts wedding gown and although she had some lovely shoes, the brown wellies were definitely the most practical footwear for the weather.

The ceremony was conducted by Father Mark at Minster Acres Monastery (he was great, even if the names ‘Chris’ and ‘Claire’ were a little confusing!).  After some brief pictures in the snow, we headed off to Close House Country Club and you know what – there was no snow!!  30 mins up the road and their was no snow!  We did have to dodge the showers though, pretty evident when you look at the picture of the boys below!

Have a great honeymoon you two – I am more than a little jealous!

The sky was grey, but it was warm and pleasant for Claire and Chris’ pre-wedding shoot.  We went to Gateshead and the Millenium Bridge – I had a very specific brief to get a picture that included the bridge and Malmaison (there was a rather lovely reason but it would be inappropriate to share it on the blog!).  I hope I got it.

The wedding is next February at the very lovely Minster Acres Monastery, then onto Close House Country Club.
