Celebrant Led Wedding at St George’s in Bristol
Sarah and Campbell
St George’s in Bristol has seen many a musical number. A concert hall since the early 70’s and formerly a church, this venue is perfect for two things - weddings and singing. Sarah and Campbell’s wedding had both.
For those of you not familiar with a celebrant led wedding, or what it entails, in essence it’s a wedding with a total emphasis on the couple’s story presented in a celebratory way. Some weddings can feel a little rigid, stuffy, and traditional for traditions sake, whereas a celebrant led wedding is just that - a celebration. And that is exactly what went down on this chilly and breezy February day in Bristol.
The photos are absolutely fantastic. You've got an uncanny knack for being in the right place at the right time, and they capture the whole day with a beautifully natural aesthetic. Thank you!
Campbell and Sarah
This year had started off so well, and Sarah and Campbell was the last wedding I shot before the dreaded lockdown. It was a good one to go out on though. They both decided to get ready together at their home. Relaxed, chatting, hanging out in the kitchen, making some food, drinking tea. As breaks from tradition go, this is my favourite. When couples spend the time before their wedding together they just seem to be far more relaxed. Any stress and anxiety seems to simply wash away.
The ceremony was a thing to behold. Hearing a couple’s story told, and the clear love they have for one another is a privilege to listen to. Their stories, told by loved ones, beautiful. Led by Richard, a.k.a. The London Celebrant (who was breaking his wedding cherry no less), the ceremony had one final surprise - a song written for Sarah and Campbell which the entire crowd joined in singing. An ode to S+C.
Sarah and Campbell were more than happy to wander the streets of Bristol, hand in hand, fighting the cold and the blustery westerly winds to get some shots overlooking the city. We embraced the conditions. Cold bodies. Warm hearts.
