Heart Church Wedding & Blush Bridesmaids

Photography by Photography by Lauryn Young

Planned in 5 weeks, Kadesha and Jospeh chose their local church, Heart Church, Nottingham, for their micro wedding followed by a marquee reception with sharing platters. Kadesha's love and beauty shine through this intimate celebration, wowing us in a fitted lace wedding dress and beautiful winged eyeliner. The captures of her on the wedding morning and with her bridesmaids in blush dresses are just wonderful.

This micro-wedding of 30 guests in Nottingham, August 2020 was an intimate wedding with an extremely relaxed and informal atmosphere. Everyone enjoyed the day and left with amazing memories and full stomaches despite the extremely low budget, the day was exceptionally enjoyable. The couple chose their local church as the ceremony venue, and the groom's parents back garden with a marquee as the reception venue.

HEART CHURCH WEDDING

It was a covid Heart Church wedding so there were number limits and facemasks! It was streamed live on YouTube for the rest of our friends and family. The smaller number made everything more intimate.

DECOR & STYLING

The vibe was rustic, it reflects the kind of home atmosphere my husband and I want. Bricks, wood, greenery, rustic pinks, purples, reds and blues... that kinda vibe.

Hands up who's trying to perfect Kadesha's winged eyeliner bridal makeup look?

My favourite moment was walking down the aisle and seeing my husbands smile. We only had 5 weeks to plan our wedding, but it was amazing.

Kadesha & Joseph

Because Kadesha and Joseph are close to their parish, it meant everything to be able to get married in their local Heart Church in Nottingham. Resulting in a really personal and heartfelt ceremony. Another way to customise your service is by asking family members to resite wedding readings. Search our extensive list of religious, funny and alternative readings for inspiration.
