Here are some of my favourite photographs from Alice and Chris’s recent wedding photography at St Paul’s Church Rusthall followed by a reception at The Beacon Hotel, Tunbridge Wells.

I joined Alice and the girls at her mum’s house for bridal preparations.

A quick trip through the lanes of Kent (or ‘the back way’ as it’s known in these parts) took me to St Paul’s Rusthall – one of my favourite churches both for its architecture and for Ronnie, the most laid-back priest ever!!

Chris’s mum then arrived with the real star of the show, Alice and Chris’s daughter, Charlotte, closely followed by mum!

At this stage, Charlotte decided it was time to go and see mum and dad at the front, and then play in the aisle with her little friend.

A few quick bride and groom portraits by a lovely shady door in the church, and then onto confetti!
