Welcome to day 2 of Serena and Ivan’s colourful wedding at Kelmarsh Hall

Glorious weather to start with and a marquee on the back lawn with beautiful views across the English countryside. What more can you ask for ? And of course lovely guests from all over the globe. Most memorable was the traditional Serbian dancing and singing accompanied by an fantastic accordion player. And of course the home made Raki played a big part !

After the speeches and meal it was back into the main building for the cake cutting and evening disco. But this time the Raki was replaced by Tequila and a first drink replacing the first dance. Below are some favourites from the day so please feel free to add any comments at the bottom. The complete set is also available to view here. The password can be obtained from Serena and Ivan.

Finally a big thanks to my friend and colleague Dragan Mikki for translating into Serbo Croat. Thanks Dragan, fancy a glass of home made Raki ?

Dobrodosli na drugi dan Serenine i Ivanove Svadbe, prepune sarenila, u Kelmars Dvoru

Podesilo nam se idealno vreme da podignemo veliki sator na travi u dvoristu, sa fantasticnim pejzazem Engleskog seoskog kraja u pozadini. I da smo imali izbor, ne bismo mogli da izaberemo nista lepse. Povrh svega toga, imali smo neverovatno dobre i lepe goste iz celog sveta. Najupecatljivija uspomena je prizor igranja u Srpskom Kolu uz harmoniku. Naravno, domaca Rakija je odigrala veoma vaznu ulogu!
Posle govoranjcije i rucka, presli smo u glavnu zgradu Dvora gde smo nastavili proslavu, sa secenjem Svadbene Torte i Diskotekom. Tog momenta Rakiju smo zamenili Tekilom, a prvu igru sa prvim picem.
Ispod ovog clanka sun neke od glavnih fotografija, pogledajte ih i slobodno ostavite neki komentar ispod njih.
Ostatak fotografija mozete da vidite ovde, ali moracete da pitate Serenu i Ivana za lozinku.
Na kraju, veliko hvala mom prijatelju i kolegi Fotografu, Draganu Mikicu za prevodjenje na Srpski jezik. Hvala Dragane, u zdravlje sa domacom Rakijom!

What a  way to start September which has to be my favourite month for weddings. Always good weather, fantastic light to work with and when you throw in great locations and models you can’t go wrong. Anyhow, enough waffle !

Congratulations to Ayla and Ian who had a fantastic wedding at Kelmarsh Hall in Northants. It was an early start for me driving up from Reading to begin photographing Ian getting ready in Market Harborough. From here, after getting a parking ticket, I met up with Ayla in a neighbouring village and then on to the church back again in Market Harborough.  And then finally to the stunning venue of Kelmarsh Hall for the reception. Many thanks must go to the team here including Sneha Robinson who did a fantastic job of getting everything to run on time which meant plenty of time for photos.

Below are some of my many favourites. You can also see the complete set by clicking on ‘links’ above, then ‘client area’. The password must have no gaps or hyphens. Please feel free to add any comments.

Thanks very much Ayla and Ian for choosing me and giving me such great opportunities !
