The fun part with the wedding ring

Yes, after the wedding ceremony, in the car park, I had a little “hiccup” with the wedding ring. It fell in the grill of the Rolls Royce, we almost lost it, fished it out with a broken umbrella. Seams like it’s always handy to have one of those with you 🙂 It’s just a part of being a wedding photographer. I felt bad for Martina and Magnus, but they had a great sense of humor about it. I was so happy when I saw them laughing about it later on.

Wedding reception at the Claridge’s

Finally, we were off to Claridge’s, an amazing wedding venue in Mayfair. Guests were welcomed with crystal glasses and a special spirit in everyone. The tables were set up beautifully, I enjoyed so much looking around the room, seeing their magic. This chic, classy and elegant London wedding is an inspiration for lovers all over the world. There are lots of pretty details in this wedding, from the delicate flower to the minimalistic white wedding cake.  The tables are decorated with pretty flowers and candles. Yes, it’s me in the middle! Anyway, time passed quickly while they danced. This atmosphere, these people made it an unforgettable day for me. Certainly coming back. The evening was full of speeches, lots of energy during dances, and a kidnapping. Oh yes, the groom got kidnapped by the best man at one point. It was quite a ride. 🙂 Great night with great people.
