Talbooth, Milsoms wedding
After so many cancellations and such amazing patience Louise and Marc finally got their Le Talbooth wedding. Set on the River Stour it is a breathtaking setting, but these two didn’t settle on one venue, but headed off to Talbooth House for their evening reception, creating a real summer destination vibe. I loved working with Louise and Marc, I had been lucky enough to meet them before Covid for their engagement shoot. So when lockdown happened just a matter of days before their first date I felt like we were in this together from the beginning, supporting each other when really none of us knew what was to come. They had postponement after postponement, and kept going knowing that all they wanted to do was say I do. I felt pretty emotional, when the day finally arrived. Louise even said until she was walking down the aisle she was worried something else would stop it. You are a beautiful pair inside and out.
The day itself was equally beautiful, with planning by the super talented Louise Perry weddings, the day went without a hitch. The weather was perfect for their river side then pool side at their Le Talbooth wedding. I absolutely loved that they had their speeches by the pool at Talbooth House Spa, it gave it a very Ibizan vibe (especially with the glitter tattoos). Thanks so much for having us be part of your day, now over to Louise
What did you love about working with us?
What we specifically loved about Julia and Michelle was just how much kindness they brought with them. We are not a very confident in front of the camera so having Julia’s keen eye on how to stand and act natural was amazing. She really put us both at ease throughout the whole day. She was super responsive to contact and we were both amazed with how fast our final photos arrived. There really was not a photo we did not love! Then her assistance in compiling our album was just amazing, you can really tell Julia loves what she’s does and it shines through the work she produces. They both provided a extremely professional service, we were glad to see that not only did they build a relationship with us our guests truly loved them too. Xx
What were your favourite parts of your Le Talbooth Wedding?
So our favourite part of the wedding other than finally being able to get married were;
1. Seeing all our plans come together after 3 postponements such as seeing the excitement of our guests being able to have boat trips.
2. Being able to have all our close family with us
3. Hearing all the stories of how nervous Marc was in the church. He’s always such a calm and chilled person it just really showed how much it all meant to him. Hearing that really made me emotional.
4. Working with the best suppliers who consistently went out of their way to make our day amazing
