Rachel and John’s wedding  photography at Ashton Lodge Country House

Rachel and John asked me to cover their wedding day at Ashton Lodge at the beginning of the month, which regular readers will now, is a place with fond memories for me as I myself was married there last year.

Both the bride and groom prepared at Ashton, Rachel in Room 1 and John in the Stables accommodation.  I met Rachel preparing with her bridesmaid before leaving to meet with John, who has relaxing having a beer with his best man before the ceremony got underway.

The ceremony was intimate and heartfelt, with close family and friends witnessing them making their vows.

The wedding breakfast was in the marquee and was later followed by the evening reception involving a live musicians and lots more guests arriving.

Thank you to John and Rachel, for asking me to be part of your memorable day, I hope you enjoy your photos.  I have added a selection  below for you to look at and the full gallery is available at Doherty Photography Online Shop, accessible with your secure code.
