Intimate Real Wedding in Islington Day 1

Last year I had the pleasure of helping Caroline and Julian to plan their intimate Islington wedding. They decided they wanted to have a small intimate ceremony one day and then follow that with a bigger party at Julian’s parents’ architects’ office in Islington the next.

Their fabulous photographer Siobhan H Photography took so many wonderful photos I’ve had to split the wedding into two posts.

Today I’m sharing with you images from day one of the heartfelt wedding ceremony for their immediate family at Islington Town Hall followed by a lovely lunch at Frederick’s where they were also joined by a few close friends.

Come back next time for Day two and their relaxed wedding party at Bennetts Associates offices but if you can’t wait for this wedding featured on Whimsical Wonderland Weddings here, where Caroline shared these words of wisdom for planning your wedding day:

“Think about what you want out of the day, it doesn’t have to conform to an ideal of what a wedding is. It’s more important that it should reflect who you are as a couple, even down to dodgy music taste.”
