I can’t tell you how excited I was to be able to photograph this Beautiful Bicton Park wedding. The gorgeous couple is having two weddings. A traditional wedding in Nepal where the bride grew up and this beautiful English wedding in rural Devon where Ollie grew up. With a ceremony at at Syon House and photos afterwards at Bicton Park.
Getting Ready With The Girls
The Bride and Bridesmaids got ready together at Syon House. DK Hairdressing did their gorgeous hair styles and the girls did their own make-up.
Vibrant Details
The bride chose her own flowers for her Bouquet. And her amazing bridesmaids created the vibrant bouquet from them. The bridesmaids wore red dresses to compliment the tropical theme.
The morning was full of laughter and frivolity as the bride and Bridesmaids shared jokes and champagne. Before they helped the bride slip into her beautiful fitted lace dress.
A First Look
The bride and groom chose to break with tradition and have a first look. Before the bride went down the aisle and they tied the knot. The both really enjoyed the experience and said it felt less pressurised doing it that way.
An Outdoor Ceremony With Floral Arch
The lovely couple had a wonderful outdoor ceremony in the grounds of Syon House. Folly Lane Flowers created a spectacular arch. Which the couple exchanged their vows in front, watched by their friends and family.
The happy couple were greeted to rapturous applause and smiling faces as they had their first kiss. And as they walked down the aisle they had the most enthusiastic confetti throw.

Riotous Evening Festivities
