Friday saw me at the Derbyshire wedding venue Hotel Van Dyk for the wedding of Rachel and Daniel. The weather had reverted to a typical English summer but at least the rain held off ! I joined Rachel and bridesmaids at mum’s house and everyone was quite relaxed and enjoying the buildup to the wedding itself.
I met up with Dan and the boys before they set off for the ceremony and everyone knew their places and timings due to some rather detailed planning by Rachel. After the ceremony we were able to get out for a few photographs and then celebrations really kicked off with the wedding breakfast.
I left them starting their evening party after a very polished waltz for a first dance !
As usual if you leave a comment voting for your favourite image I’ll have the winner enlarged and mounted for Rachel and Dan.

Rachel & Dan - Simon,
Thanks for a lovely set of pictures! We really enjoyed it on Friday and hope you did too…thanks for being a good sport and tolerating my bossiness! haha!
There are too many to choose from but from scrutinising them closely we like number 10 the bestest!
Can’t wait to see the rest! Thanks again for making our day relaxed and enjoyable.

Christina Watson - Uncle Daves face in 16 is hilarious! He looks like he thinks Dan has gone mad!
But the best photo is definitely number 10, completely agree that you should get that one!

A wonderful day spent with wonderful people.
