Jo & Ben’s Two-Part Autumnal Bosham Church and Southend Barns Wedding
Wedding Part One - Against All Odds
Back in October 2020 Jo and Ben said their vows with their closest family present at the picturesque, historic Grade l listed Holy Trinity Church in Bosham, lying at the heart of the idyllic Chichester Harbour. It wasn’t quite how and when they’d initially planned their wedding, but it was beautiful just the same. Bursting with love and all the traditional wedding splendor.
Jo looked absolutely stunning in her intricately detailed Martina Liana gown from Minster Bridal Boutique, with hair and makeup perfected by ID Hair and Makeup, whilst Ben looked super sharp in his Astares blue tailored suit, grey waistcoat and pale pink tie – bang on colour scheme.
It was such a lovely, heartfelt day that proved that love really does win against all odds.
We took our vow to keep it under wraps as they planned to share this dreamed of and long-awaited day with more of their family and friends in a bigger style wedding when social gatherings became less restricted.

Laura & Michael’s Autumn Upwaltham Barns Wedding
Following a heartwarming ceremony held at a local church, Laura and Michael arrived at their dream wedding venue in style! Riding in a pristinely restored cream and black 1960’s Californian Deluxe VW Split-screen Camper Van from Splitty Wedding Hire.
This fine vehicle, aka ‘Hector’, fitted perfectly with the laid back rustic vibes of the gorgeous Upwaltham Barns nestled in the West Sussex countryside and made an awesome prop for which to arrange the joyful bridal party whilst showcasing their gorgeous colour scheme of light pinks and blues.
This couple’s big day was a wedding of two halves, starting with the much loved and ever longed for romantic traditions associated with preparing for a church wedding, followed by the contemporary elements of a relaxed barn wedding reception scattered with personal touches to reflect Laura and Michaels fun loving and laid back personalities.

Rosie & Chris’ Summer Southend Barns Wedding
The charmingly romantic Southend Barns set in the stunning West Sussex countryside proved the perfect venue for Rosie and Chris’ sunny September wedding day. Rosie’s vintage style Annasul Y. bridal gown from Sass and Grace with it’s low back detail, scalloped edge, transparent lace and cleverly placed appliqués on the front bodice gracefully set the tone whilst complementing the barn’s impressive rustic features.
The dusky pink mesh bridesmaid dresses also tied in perfectly with the elegant look with their fitted waists, draping, cape-style sleeves and shimmering intricate hand-embellished beads and sequins adding an angelic touch (Monsoon and Next).
Thoughtfully positioning the bridal party among the delightful setting and symmetrical pews of the Secret Garden, with Rosie and Chris at the forefront, allowed me to capture their chosen stylish colour scheme. The ladies adopt relaxed and chic poses with Chris and his groomsmen all looking super sharp in their blue suits and ties from Marks and Spencer and TM Lewin respectively.
