A country village wedding in the spring sunshine

Ella and Jev's Oxfordshire Wedding in the lovely village of Mixbury was an absolute delight to photograph. A church wedding followed by a pony and trap ride to a marquee reception was just up our street as documentary wedding photographers. 

Have a look at their photofilm below to get a feeling for their lovely day. 

The wedding day started as usual for both of us; Sam with the stunning bride Ella and her bridesmaids getting ready, whilst I was with Jev and the groomsmen. All Saints Church, Mixbury is a traditional, quintessential English village church, and dates back to the 12th century.  After a lovely service, and lots of confetti, the bride and groom made the short distance to a field next to where Ella's parents once lived, by pony and trap. 

We love a marquee wedding reception! We can wander around inconspicuously, looking for candid or touching moments, and know that everyone we photograph is actually a guest at the wedding. With lots of room to spread out in the lovely May sunshine, and outdoor games to play, it really was a perfect location for a wedding reception. 

After the obligatory and humorous speeches, we had time for a few photos of Ella and Jev together, before the evening guests started to arrive. After the obligatory cake cutting and first dance, lots of partying took place which we got amongst as usual for us to photograph. 

As Oxfordshire wedding photographers, we do get to photograph in lots of lovely places, this Mixbury wedding has to be one of our favourites so far! Thanks to Ella and Jev for letting us be your photographers for the day.
