Footloose and an Operatic Grandfather at Gate Street Barn

Filed under Weddings • Written by artisstudios @ 1:11 pm

Our Easter Bank Holiday consisted of much chocolate eating but it was topped off with a fantastic wedding on the Tuesday.  Although Tuesday weddings are a little unusual, everyone was in the party spirit and relished an extra long weekend.

The wedding ceremony took place at St Dunstan’s Catholic Church, Woking which was a beautiful setting and then on to the equally beautiful Gate Street Barn, Bramley.

As Jim was from a large Italian family there were some real characters, especially his grandfather who took every opportunity to serenade the crowds with his fantastic operatic voice.  He congratulated the couples marriage with a song during the ceremony, several times during the meal (accompanied by an accordion) and again whilst cutting the cake.

The evening had an exciting barn dance planned but not before the couples first dance.  This dance started fairly typically with a beautiful love song but broke into ‘footloose’ complete with the choreography from the film!  The best man and bridesmaid also joined in with the choreographed dance and we got some fantastic reactions from the crowd.

The whole day was fantastic! Everyone was really welcoming and friendly and we had loads of great shooting opportunities!  Here are some of our favourites.
