Kat & John were married on a beautiful crisp and bright November day. We find that we don't have a typical "wedding season" any more, as you often get the nicest weather outside the summer months - although looking at the long term weather predictions for 2012 fingers crossed for a scorcher this year!
Kat looked gorgeous in her dress, and daughter Zoey was such a pretty and well behaved flowergirl. The ceremony took place at North Tyneside Registry Office, which has a fantastic large room with masses of natural light. After the ceremony the guests all congratulated Kat & John on the terrace, before we headed to Newcastle Quayside for the reception at The Pitcher & Piano.
We had a good choice of locations for the formal photos, with The Baltic directly over the river, and a gorgeous tree lined terrace, which looked amazing with the autumnal leaves. Kat & John had hired the first floor for their reception, and had used the autumn theme to great effect with their table decorations, a leaf covered wedding cake and garlands of leaves wound around the balcony bannisters.
Kat & John weren't keen on having a very formal reception, so they decided not to have speeches or a first dance. We always say that your wedding day should be exactly how you want it, whether that's a traditional wedding or a relaxed informal party - it's your day and you don't "have" to go with set traditions. After the meal we made the most of the cityscape with some creative evening shots of Kat & John with the Millennium Bridge and a sculpture next to the venue as backgrounds.
Here are some of our favourite shots from the day, we wish Kat, John & daughter Zoey all the best for the future. For the full gallery please click here.
