Lee and Miranda got married a couple of weeks ago at the amazing Haigh Hall in Wigan a couple of weeks ago. What a brilliant day.
They had a carriage and horses on the day because they both ride and have horses on their own so it was only fitting that they had horses at their wedding. I have to say that these were the most well behaved horses I've ever come across.
I had my instructions to make sure that their ears (the horses, not the bride and groom's) were forward in the photos. That old missive, never work with children or animals, certainly wasn't true in this instance, they were clearly used to being photographed and performing for the camera. I could have sworn they were even smiling for me at one point.

Down at the canal, on the bridge. A couple for swans came by for a look at what was going on.
The bride and groom had added lots of personal touches to their wedding to make it extra special for their guests, the weather was perfect, the venue was superb, everyone was lovely. All in all, pretty much the perfect day. It was a delight and an honour to be able to photograph it for them..
