Graylin & Andy, like so many couples, had to change their wedding plans due to covid. They ended up having a small legal wedding in the USA where they were living and then planned a larger London pub wedding celebration in September at the County Arms in Wandsworth. They wanted the day to be relaxed and personal – they got ready together and chose a celebrant led service with a friend conducting a meaningful, personalised ceremony which included a handfasting. They had decorated the County Arms, creating a DIY wedding backdrop of pinwheels. Graylin had two wedding dresses – a traditional white wedding dress for the day and a dark green ballgown for the evening. There were speeches full of laughter, adorable little flower girls, and an evening walk by Wandsworth Common as the sun set before dancing and more celebrations. I loved this gorgeous wedding, which was also featured on top wedding blog Love My Dress.
Graylin kindly wrote about the experience of me photographing her wedding:
“We chose Hannah because she’d done beautiful photos at my sister in-law’s wedding & we felt her relaxed but organized style would give us the perfect blend of posed & candid shots. She did a great job of covering all the most important moments & looks, as well as the little details that made the event feel special. She was also really thoughtful (but flexible!) in putting together the route, the order, a few special snaps away from the party, & making sure we had everything we wanted covered. She was easy to work with & did a beautiful job capturing the day”
