What an amazing two days it was with Kathy and Manoj at Grays Court Hotel. Set in the exclusive Minster Quarter, it is just a cobblestone walk from York Minster. It stated with a colourful walk to York Minster, the ladies dressed in saris as a homage to Manoj’s late mum. The first evening was spent with the family judging the shots from the family’s fun photo mission around the city of York that day.

The wedding day was perfect with an outdoor ceremony, a summer vibe, feasting at one long table, a few family pics and some creative portraits at night. The ceremony took place to Etta James’s “At Last” and at confetti time the surprise New York Brass Band made their entrance into the fray. The day was so rich in every way and it was the perfect story to tell.
