When Hannah and Nello asked me to photograph their wedding at Hampton Court House I did a celebratory dance in my office. I may also have punched the air because I’ve always wanted to photograph a wedding at this beautiful venue. Being a Hampton Court House wedding photographer has been on my ‘hit list’ for a few years now. It’s a beautiful building with gorgeous light in the ceremony room. A Bristol wedding photographers dream and they made sure it was a really memorable day.
Their wedding was a little bit different for all sorts of reasons. To start, Nello is from Skyros so his family were visiting and there were lots of Greek references throughout the day. The wedding favours were olive oil. Made from olives Hannah and her father picked in Greece last year. The wedding breakfast was catered for by their friend Ben. A charming guy who prepared a 7 course meal, written and inspired by greek food and their favourite flavours and ingredients. They had a “cheese cake” put together with the cheese Nello’s dad brought from Skyros. The table names were all named after Greek islands and their first dance was a Greek “vintage” song. The band (Jivin Miss Daisy) played the night away – a swing and jive band who were dressed in a 1920s feel.
