Derek and his mates started their wedding day off in a slightly unorthodox way – by going shooting. Perhaps is was the best way for him to deal with his nerves? Or maybe it was just an ideal way to take in some of the beautiful countryside at the Four Seasons Hampshire. Meanwhile Trudy’s preparations were a bit more traditional – she had the attention of makeup and hair artists making sure she looked her very best for her civil wedding. Bride and groom came together in front of their assembled guests and made some very heart-felt vows witnessed by their closest friends and family.
Afterwards there was a glass of champagne waiting for them and their guests in order to toast to their success. We all popped outside to get some photographs of the bride and groom plus the entire assembled wedding party (shot from above in order to fit them all in). Soon enough it was time to head inside for supper – with each table softly lit by a candle. The kitchen did an amazing job of getting all the food plated up and out on time and the reports from the guests were all quite glowing. The day ended with a dance floor of happy guests dancing to the music – led by the bride and groom themselves. We wish much joy and happiness to Derek and Trudy.
Check out these moves on display from Alex and his Stags – they put on a heck of a show at this fun wedding at the Four Seasons Hampshire. It started with just one of them doing his best Michael Jackson… but it didn’t end there, oh no. You have to say he’s got some pretty good moves going on complete with popping moon walk, no? Not to be shown up, one by one the stags also took to the floor to show off their stylish dance moves (well, some more stylish than others, but still…). It resulted in a kind of cross between Riverdance and Morris Dancing (with a dash of Monty Python thrown in for good measure). Perhaps not for purists, but very entertaining none-the-less. Dividing in half, they then began to compete with each other, each side trying to out-do the other. Someone put some real thought into these routines and the patterns they form on the dancefloor. Alright, their execution isn’t perfect, but is sure is funny and hats off to these guys for taking it on.
Not content to just give their audience one dance, the sunglasses came out ready for their next number – a rocking twisting booty-slapping selection! Highly entertaining and it was great for us to be there to film this live event.
Four Seasons Hampshire offers all kinds of country hotel pursuits for a wedding party. Recent clients Samantha and James, and their entire group of family & friends, took full advantage of these offerings! James and his mates relaxed before the wedding by doing a little shooting! Meanwhile Samantha and her bridesmaids were having a full-on beauty boutique service in their room getting glammed up for the wedding.
Suited & booted guests enjoyed the sunny June weather as they arrived in eager anticipation for the wedding. All the hours of preparation were soon over and as they walked up the path leading to the charming church. Decorated with flowers and bordered by hurricane lanterns, it was clear that a lot of thought went into their Church Wedding. Samantha & James had considered everything which would make their day special.
The bride was radiant as her proud father escorted her up the aisle. Their traditional ceremony was heartfelt and after their anticipated kiss the couple drove off in a convertible sports car. Arriving back at the Four Seasons, they were greeted with a well-earned glass of champers and a harp to serenade them as they took full advantage of the sunshine to explore the gardens. When the time came to move inside, the banquet room was lit with candles for a romantic dinner. After dark brought the real romance when the lawn was covered in a sea of candles and the guests gathered for a fireworks display. It was enough to bring out the romantic in anyone! Well done Samantha and James!
