And they left us a spirit, they left us a vibe

The Mancunian Way to survive and to thrive

And to work and to build, to connect and create and

Greater Manchester’s greatness is keeping it great

(LONGFELLA)

I love this city, I feel connected to it in a way that makes it feel more like home than anywhere else bar my green mountained Vermont. And now I’m connected to it through blood and marriage and through this incredible tribe I’ve found of artists and makers and creatives and stylists - this tribe works beyond the limits of weddings and produces magnificent editorial feasts that are an absolute DREAM to capture and preserve.

And today we celebrated our Manchester in the very heart of it all - the iconic Albert Hall. Lead, once again, by the limitless, extraordinary force that is Kate Bader of Florence & Vera Events, this beautiful dream team of incredibly hard working wedding suppliers gathered to show off the immense space and create some wedding magic. I’m so so honoured and proud to have been included amongst this ridiculously talented crew, I only hope that my photos have done all of their hard work the justice they deserve.

With so so much gratitude to Kate and everyone involved in making this another surreal, special day, crews like you are why I feel so so inspried by the Manchester wedding community.
