The Swan Hotel, Bibury Wedding Photographer – Skyla & David’s Wedding

We met Skyla & David at The Swan Hotel in Bibury back in July for an engagement shoot; a gloriously hot, sunny day, arrrh that was a lovely summer.  Usually I say it only seems like yesterday but in all honesty, the weather is so miserable today, I can quite happily say it feels like years ago!  Skyla and her sister, Leia had admitted to not being ‘girlie girls’ & not wearing makeup and dresses very often so it was great to see the excitement on their faces when they saw the results of their preparation.  Skyla wore a beautiful ivory/gold taffeta David Tutera gown from Grand Jour.  With a bodice re-embroidered with lace, beads & Swarovski crystals, she looked amazing.  The couple had opted for a romantic wedding at The Swan Hotel in Bibury: a 17th Century former Coaching Inn sitting on the banks of the River Coln.  David was anxiously awaiting his bride’s arrival, I love the photo Chris took capturing Skyla’s first glimpse of David, always a magical moment. The couple were keen to have photos by Arlington Row & one advantage of getting married in January: no tourists trying to muscle their way into ‘our’ photos.  The light was warm & rich, beautifully reflected off the flooded meadows, giving a golden glow to the photos.  Back inside, photos of the guests downing a few drinks in the bar and general frivolities were a must.  Need a great cake?  Look no further than Contemporary Cake Designs’ beautifully hand crafted cappuccino & cream flavoured cake; it was so tempting just to have a little nibble but we refrained …… again!
