When is a wedding not quite a wedding? 💍📸
This is Leah and Karl, photographed last year in Weymouth during their wedding celebration at the beautiful Ship Inn on the harbourside.
The couple had actually eloped to get married beforehand, then came back to Weymouth for a bigger celebration with family and friends.
They wore their wedding clothes, we spent some time around the harbour creating a few more formal photographs, and then I captured the celebrations — just without photographing the ceremony itself.
It’s a lovely reminder that weddings don’t always have to follow the traditional format.
Through my sister brand, Dorset Wedding Photos, I photograph everything from small register office ceremonies and elopements to relaxed celebrations and full wedding days.
So if you’re looking for great quality, relaxed wedding photography in Dorset or further afield, take a look at Dorset Wedding Photos.
And if your wedding plans are a little different from the norm, even better — those are often some of the most enjoyable days to photograph. ❤️
