The brilliant wedding of Jodie and Steve at Normanton Church on the banks of Rutland Water. Followed by a reception at Barnsdale Hall Hotel, Oakham.

Family & friends will never forget the Ferry ride from Whitwell to Normanton and back. The weather forecast for the area did not bode well. However, we were blessed with a really lovely day. Jodie, looking slim and gorgeous, wearing a beautiful wedding gown, Steve looking cool and confident throughout.

I have known Steve and his family for over 25 years, so it was my absolute pleasure to photograph his and Jodie's wedding. As can be seen from the following photographs, we all had a great time. Everything just fell into place, thanks to the tremendous organisation of Jodie.

Also, I must mention the superb family and friends attending this wedding. You would have to go a long way to meet a nicer bunch of people... I have included all the photographs taken, as requested by the happy couple. I wish you both the very best of health, happiness and good fortune for your future lives together...

Please note image number 8615 onwards are out of sync for the day. These photos were taken by my wife (as a second shooter) and certainly merit being included in this set. Apologies that they are out of sync.

The very last photo on page 66, is indeed a musical slideshow, lasting over 13 minutes. Enjoy...
