Lizzy & Callum tied the knot at Newton Hall which is a Northumberland wedding venue on the coast. They planned a fun, colourful and laid back wedding.
The bridesmaids wore different coloured dresses and everything was brought beautifully together with bouquets & floral centrepieces from Floral Quarter in Gosforth. Here’s the highlights of their special day!
When I arrived, Lizzy was getting ready in the cute little cottages behind the hall. Simone Whitehead was on hand for hair, and Lizzy looked gorgeous with flowers finishing off her do 🙂
The ceremony room was decorated in a rustic way, with hessian chair ties and jars of roses & wildflowers from Floral Quarter lining the aisle.
Lizzy’s Dad has a great sense of humour and a couple of times during the ceremony he had a bit of ‘banter’ with the registrar and with groom Callum!
Just before the meal, myself & the bride and groom headed in the camper van hired from Go Retro. We went for a little jaunt down the road and through neighbouring villages, to give the couple a few minutes together before the meal and to get some fun photographs.
Callum and Lizzy both share a love of Sci-Fi and class themselves as being into ‘quite geeky’ things… so the table names were on that theme, and there were many Star Trek references!
The cake was a gorgeous 5 tier, topsy-turvy design with floral sugar details, and came from Baked.Cupcakery in Sunderland, as did the personalised cupcake favours. I love the little hand painted roses, reminds me of my love of Cath Kidston designs!
The speeches were hilarious and featured the best men kitting Callum out in safety gear, as apparently he is notorious at being clumsy and hurting himself… oops! Love it!
As the weather was a little wild later on, Lizzy & Callum opted to stay at Newton Hall for some photographs inside the fab building instead of venturing to the beach and potentially getting completely blown away! The building itself is gorgeous in all weathers anyway 🙂
A big congratulations to the new Mr & Mrs Squires on their fab, fun & colourful wedding at Newton Hall, and thanks so much for having me as your wedding photographer.
