English country marquee wedding

Quite an international day with a wonderful contingent of Canadians coming to a beautiful part of Wiltshire for Shaden & George’s wedding. The 12^th century church that George was christened in was also the venue for his marriage. Under usual circumstances, the capacity is about 50, but they somehow crammed 65 friends and family for the service, ranging from eight weeks to over 80 years. We almost ended up photographing and filming from outside the church.

Afterwards, guests walked the 200 metres back to George’s family home, behind the happy couple in a beautiful Rolls, and then the real celebrations began. Speeches were mostly in English with a smattering of French thrown in to reflect Shaden’s Quebec heritage and George’s bilingual skills. And with four generations as guests, it was a real family affair.
