Today was the wedding for Sam and Chelsey at the Longlands Hotel in Carnforth, a typical October morning wet, windy and rain forecast for the entire day, but still, that was not going to put a dampener on the wedding celebrations.

I reached the Longlands Hotel in Carnforth at around 10:00 AM in the morning to start photographing the bridal preparations with her 5 bridesmaids her mother and her dog.

It was only a short walk from the cottages where Chelsey was getting ready to the Longlands Hotel, accompanied by her father under the umbrella as they made their way to the ceremony room where Sam was nervously waiting.

The wedding ceremony was just perfect and the lovely couple tied the knot, said their vows and exchanged weddings rings to become Mr & Mrs Gentle.

Afterwards, we just managed to get outside to brave the cold weather and the rain to get the wedding photos taken before heading in for the wedding breakfast and speeches.

The day was a huge success celebrated with close friends and family with the celebrations continuing late into the night.
