As a Yorkshire Wedding Photographer, every love story I have the honour of documenting is unique and holds a special place in my heart. As the leaves turned into beautiful golden colours, Rachel and Callam's love story unfolded against the backdrop of a charming autumn Wedding. The enchanting story began at St Mary's Church in Birkin, with the festivities continuing at the Kings Croft Hotel in Pontefract.
The day kicked off at Kings Croft Hotel as Rachel and her Bridesmaids prepared for the big moment. The make up artist and hairdresser got to work transforming the bridal party and Rachel was helped into her dress by her Bridesmaids, ready to say 'I Do". A stylish Beauford wedding car awaited Rachel, ensuring her arrival at the Church would be nothing short of spectacular.
Simultaneously, Callam and his Groomsmen got ready at his Grandads home, sharing jokes, helping each other into their suits, and ensuring every detail was just right. Love and joy filled the air as both groups readied themselves for the significant day.
The timeless charm of St Mary's Church set the stage for Rachel and Callam's vows. The guests were welcomed by the soul-stirring tunes of a bagpiper, setting the tone for the heartwarming ceremony. The majestic church organ played, building anticipation as Rachel, escorted by her father, made her way down the aisle towards Callam, patiently awaiting his bride.
After the ceremony, the newlyweds and their families gathered outside the church for group photos, capturing the joy and love that enveloped the moment. Classic confetti shots added an extra layer of celebration, marking the beginning of Rachel and Callam's journey as Mr. and Mrs. Rowbottom.
