Relaxed Fun & Rustic Countryside Barn Wedding

I love a couple relaxed enough to bounce around on space hoppers on their wedding day. So much fun.

In fact Ben and Rebecca’s June wedding was smiles a plenty; from the Baywatch first dance tune to the fun photo props for their guests. There was a really relaxed atmosphere, with Ben donning a navy waistcoat and open shirt for a smart casual groom look. Rebecca meanwhile looked so very beautiful in her romantic Catherine Deane gown with a simple white flower crown. Talking of flowers, how gorgeous are the blooms? The wild feel of Rebecca’s bouquet is so dreamy.

Oh and just you wait until you see the cake, you will be after a slice of the chocolate goodness that’s for sure.

Many thanks today to Paul Underhill for sharing these brilliant images with us.
