Anika & Nelson at Orsett Hall

Two celebrations in one day. After first having a beautiful civil service, both the bride and groom went through the getting ready experience once more to prepare for their second service in the grounds of the hotel. A gorgeous day blessed the couple and their guests and they were able to have their outdoor wedding celebration in the grounds of Orsett Hall under an amazingly beautiful canopy of flowers. After the service the couple enjoyed some time alone for some pictures and then onto the food market which had been set up outside for their guests.

Once the reception part of the day was complete the couple started off the evening festivities with more food, some great speeches and it all ended with a fantastic party.
