Amanda & Carl - St. Matthew's Church & La Réunion

Amanda and Carl had a gorgeous, intimate wedding.

We started our coverage at the church where Carl had a good laugh as the guests arrived.  No evidence of any nerves here.

Le Mont Saint Garage had lent a very appropriate Fiat 500 for Amanda to be driven to the church by her father.

We stopped just round the corner for a few pictures at Albecq.  Then went on to La Réunion for the reception.  This was the perfect place for a wedding of this size and the dining room in particular looked inviting.

The balcony was just right for a group shot of the entire wedding.

There were some lovely details, plus a very creative driftwood table plan.

People had a good opportunity for a chat before being called in for the best man's speech.  Jean-Pierre certainly had some amusing stories to tell about Carl!

Sunset from Guernsey's west coast can be spectacular, Cobo Bay was the perfect setting as the sun slowly set over the Grosse Rocque with us watching from La Réunion.

This looks serious, but was quite light hearted...

The evening finished off with some informal speeches.  What a really lovely day this was.
