AND TIME TO ENJOY THE CAELIDH .. A GREAT DAY FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS AT HEADLAM HALL

I first met with Rhoanne and her father at Headlam Hall last year and they outlined their plans to me for a beautiful wedding to fiancee Andrew - relatives and friends would be travelling from as far away as Chile to Headlam Hall.
It all sounded so nice, and we hit it off so well, that I was thrilled when I was asked to be her official photographer for the day's wedding celebrations.
 Headlam Hall is certainly one of my favourite locations for a wedding, it's so laid back and really well manged that weddings go without a hitch.
I met with Rhoanne and her bridesmaids in the main bridal suite just before she put on her magnificent dress and she was really calm and collected - though just itching to get into her dress!
Meanwhile Andrew was getting ready in his kilt with one of his groomsmen before meeting with the registrar. The sun was out, the weather was warm, the main wedding room was ready and looked so light and white and romantic for the ceremony.
Both Andrew and Rhoanne looked really calm and confident, and once the ceremony was over - with one or two tears from bridemaids and family, it was a slow walk through guests blowing soap bubbles over the couple and onto the terrace for champagne and canapes.
Everything was so relaxed and laid back, which was just how the couple wanted things to be, and hopefully, the way that I blend in and become part of the families for the day, was just right too.
We took a ten minute break for all the family photographs that needed to be captured on such a day of record, with no hassle or stress for anyone so smiles came easily on the beautiful lawn in front of the main house.
Reception was a whole lot of fun with spontaneous outbursts from all the tables with guests singing verses from different love songs, which meant that the bride and groom had to kiss each time - there's was lot of laughter, and especially at the speeches and the animated life story that Andrew's brothers put together.
That left us ten or fifteen minutes for Rhoanne and Andrew and I to stroll among the grounds, get some fresh air and take some nice natural photographs before we headed back inside for the wonderful first dance and a mad Ceilidh that was still going strong when I left after 10pm.
