Stepping back in time.....

Katherine in her grandmother's dress
Yesterday's wedding in Cheltenham was slightly different to our usual weddings - our bride, Katherine, is originally from Philadelphia and so had added a more american twist to proceedings. 


Katherine had decided to follow a family tradition and during the day was wearing the 70 year old wedding dress that both her grandmother and mother wore for their weddings, planning to change to a modern dress from the meal onwards.


In America it's not considered bad luck for the groom and bride to see each other before the ceremony and so we all assembled at the reception venue prior to going to church to do the formal photographs. 
Dress number two !
With a studio set up in Pittville Pump Room's Oval room we then recreated a selection of formal shots from the dress's two previous outings before setting off for St Gregory's for the ceremony.


After a beautiful wedding ceremony we then returned to Pittville where, luckily, the weather was kind to us for the rest of the day.


A lovely wedding and lovely people !
