Wedding: Down Hall Country House and Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses – Jon and Elaine
Wow, what can I say? Two firsts in one day: my first Greek wedding and my first Jehovah’s Witness wedding. Second time at <a href="http://www.alexbeckett.co.uk/2009/12/28/wedding-down-hall-country-house-alana-and-david/"Down Hall though after Alana and David's wedding at Christmas (actually that’s how Jon and Elaine found me – through Alana and David’s blog post here…). I must admit I was a touch daunted going into this one but my fear was misplaced. This was quite simply one of the most fun weddings I’ve ever photographed. Jon and Elaine are a really fab couple and I can’t thank them enough for supplying such a great set of photo opportunities and trusting me on the day – yes those Minis were doing about 30mph less then a couple of feet away! A truly epic wedding and an epic set of wedding photos to boot.
Not sure I can say much more than that. I think this is one of the most photo heavy posts I’ve ever made but I just couldn’t whittle them down. Somehow I ended up with 75% more selects than normal. So many fab shots are still waiting to see the light of day; I had to be really hard with the editing! Anyway without any further ado, I’ll say thanks to Chris Beaumont from Gryphon Photography for helping me out on the day and leave you all with the photos…
Well that just about sums it up. More adventures to follow in the very near future.

Beautiful, as always. I love checking out the photos on your blog, especially the wedding ones, because they always tell a moving story and you find the poetry in every wedding, every couple. Especially like the Corinthians verse shot – very well captured. Just wish I were getting married so I could be in such stunning photos!
Beautiful pictures.
You’re right, we did rock this one!
Fantastic pictures Alex, loving the ones of the Minis, specially my White Paul Smith.
Amazing shots of a amazing day!
It’s true – he can’t dress himself. Seriously, amazing photographs Alex, memories the couple will treasure forever.
Loving the pics Alex. Captured the day perfectly. Look forward to seeing the rest
Absolutely stunning pics! Really captured the special moments! I could see you truly had the wonderful day you both deserved!

Wow. Wonderful series from start to finish. What a fun wedding!
Amazing…saw your work on FM Forums…one of the best
I speak little English, but really are very accurate the shots you’ve done in the marriage of Jon & Elaine, have enough art to photography. Maybe one day trip to your country and you go for some pictures.
