Rebecca and Phil first got in touch with me back in May last year. They were planning their Botleys Mansion wedding from a fair distance away, having recently moved to the US, and were drawn to my natural documentary style. They wanted pictures that captured all the wonderful moments between them and their guests. Fast forward nearly a year to their wedding day and the day was everything the couple had hoped it would be.

Rebecca and Phil both work for Hasbro, so it was very fitting that they chose a ‘Toy Story’ theme for their wedding day with themed tables names, table plan, a 4 tier toy themed cake and even a ‘mashly in love’ Mr and Mrs Potato Head as a wedding favour for each and every guest! Being a designer, Phil took it upon himself to personally design all the stationary.

From bridal preparations to the evening celebrations, it was a wonderful day to document and after some emotional and heartfelt speeches (Rebecca’s speech and her father’s in particular) it was onto the evening dancing. And what a first dance it was! Rebecca and Phil had choreographed a full dance routine set to a mega-mix of their favourite tracks. Top marks to you guys, it was brilliant!

Here are a selection of my favourite pictures from their day and a few words from the very happy couple.
