Magic numbers


Three words; simple, elegant, beautiful. Bride Sarah looked stunning in Jenny Packham, the bridesmaids looked effortlessly chic in Ted Baker and even the jam jars on the table got dressed up for the occasion sporting brown paper, hessian, twine and moss. The tables were all named with significant numbers, and thus we all learnt that our poor bride has endured nine games of football at Grimsby town (sorry Ben!) The couples black convertible mini cooper was polished for the drive back from the church, an undercover artisit did some inspired illustrations on the blackboard, the sun shone down, champagne corks popped, Ben and Sarah were married and a good time was had by all.

More fabulous pictures from Steve Carss aren't his shots amazing?
