A Beautiful Ceremony at St Mary’s Church, Radcliffe on Trent

Hannah & Stefan said their vows in the stunning St Mary’s Church, Radcliffe on Trent, a beautiful and historic church that was the perfect setting for such a heartfelt ceremony. With its grand architecture and soft light streaming through the stained glass, it was the perfect setting to exchange their vows. Seeing Stefan’s face light up as Hannah walked down the aisle was definitely one of those pinch-me moments. After some fun confetti canons outside, the newlyweds hopped into their car (chauffered by the Bride's dad!), ready to celebrate the rest of their day in style!
