CHATEAU DE LA CAZINE, LIMOUSIN, GEMMA & JACK, DAY 01
Hello Simon,What can we say other than a hugggggggge THANK YOU! You were everything and more that we hoped for and even though we haven't seen the photos yet, we know we will love them. The way you floated about doing your own thing was exactly what we wanted. Everyone complemented us on the way you were and said it was nice to be at a wedding where the photographer remembers the day is about the bride and groom and not themselves! Haha. So thank you so much! We had the most amazing time and the fireworks really topped off a special weekend perfectly. We couldn't have asked for much more.
Well Gemma & Jack, you can now see those photographs from Chateau de la Cazine last weekend, albeit in this post, Day 01 (Day 02 to follow soon!).
The whole weekend was just superb from start to finish with barely a blip. OK, there was a heavy shower after you sat down to eat, but no predicted thunderstorm at 3pm that would have wrecked your planned outdoor ceremony...so even Le Meteo gets it wrong sometimes!
So this is just a 'taster' really, - 2/5ths of ultimately what you are going to receive and in my opinion, really showcases just what value having this two day coverage option is in regard to getting to know each other (family & guests included) and provide the best platform for the wedding day itself.
Anyway, enough of my waffle and on with the pictures...(Day 02 can be viewed here)

Chateau de la Cazine Wedding Photography, Gemma & Jack, Day 02
CHATEAU DE LA CAZINE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY, GEMMA & JACK, DAY 02
Following on from Day 01 of Gemma & Jack's wedding at the delightful Chateau de la Cazine not so far from the city of Limoges in Limousin, is Day 02, their wedding day.
The forecast was not looking so good and we had all been monitoring the weather as a heavy thunderstorm was predicted for 2-3pm with the (outdoor) ceremony set for 3pm.
In the end, it did rain and quite heavily, but only after they had sat down to eat and by the time they had finished, the sun was back out so you would almost have not noticed this slight blip in the weather.
Gemma wore a Suzanne Neville number (Gracie) from Go Bridal, Birmingham, matched with Dior shoes and Jack a Paul Smith suit.
The ceremony took place outside the chateau in beautiful June sunshine of picture perfect blue skies and fluffy white clouds, - just as you would want with an outdoor wedding in France in June!
The flowers were by Lisa Gatenby at French Flower Style and the couple honeymooned in Barbados.
A harpist played during the ceremony & drinks reception and during the evening, there was a casino and photobooth and I can show some of the pictures that produced...but not all of them...
The evening ended with a super-dramatic firework display over the chateau which was a perfect grand finale to this perfect 2 day wedding in France.
