Cherwell boathouse wedding photography

I captured Piers & Alice's Cherwell Boathouse wedding in Oxford. They shared a rare first look before punting down the river for their heartfelt ceremony, serenaded by friends. Amid confetti and champagne by the river, they danced to an adapted "Like a Virgin" in a celebration filled with love.

We’ve just sat down together to watch everything. There were tears, laughs, and big smiles. I can only imagine the hard work and intelligent creative choices that go into making these photos and videos both on the day and back on the computer but it is truly appreciated. You were wonderful in going with the rhythm on the day and not interrupting the flow. You’ve documented everything and captured the emotion.

Back in August I had the absolute pleasure of documenting Piers & Alice’s wedding at Cherwell Boathouse in Oxford.

The couple had an official first look (quite a rare thing in the UK) before punting down the river to have a wonderfully conducted wedding ceremony. Talking of ceremonies, I should say that theirs was particularly delightful, with handwritten heartfelt vows and live music from musical friends.

Confetti, hugs and champagne by the river and a wedding breakfast overlooking the river. More music followed the speeches as an adapted version of “like a virgin by Madonna” was sung by the entire party (you can actually hear this at the end of the photofilm above)
