A Rustic Country Fayre Wedding | Dorset | Melanie & Chris

Melanie & Chris got married on 6th August at St Marys Church in Iwerne Courtney, Blandford Forum. You may remember these two from their engagement session, which we shot at Corfe Castle.

Melanie and Chris met whilst working on a Dairy Farm and so wanted to make their wedding personal and reflect their love of the countryside.  Melanie certainly made us smile when she greeted us wearing her cow print all in one pyjamas.

Melanie and Chris got married in Iwerne Courtney, where they grew up at their local church.  St Marys had been decorated with beautiful flowers by one of their friends. Dried Lavender flowers had been sprinkled on the floor of the Church's entrance so as guests entered the ceremony they were crushed underfoot; The church smelt wonderful!

Following the ceremony guests walked to the village hall where Melanie's French family had made some tasty nibbles.  On the village green Country Dancers put on a performance for the couple, which everyone got to join in. The country dancers were adorable!

Everyone then made their way to the Kingston Country Courtyard, Corfe Castle for Part II
