Matt and Emma's Wedding, Quendon, Essex - 7th November 2008
It's a Friday wedding, so a half-day holiday is taken for the short trip down to Essex, near Stansted, for Matt and Emma's wedding. We have special dispensation to bring Fred - on account of him being only six weeks old - as he's lashed down to his basinette and can't run around the place terrorising the other guests, in what is an otherwise sprog-free wedding.

After the service
Emma and Matt after the signing of the register
Emma and Matt walk up the aisle
All the guests filter out of the room
Isobel in a red corridor
The venue
We borrow a bedroom so that Fred can be fed
Outside, by the fountain, more photos are taken
A grand staircase
Quendon Hall
Mingling around after the gig
Caroline and John roam around
The huddled masses in the garden
A group photo
Caroline and John inspect the fountain
Emma has a Kir Royale
Matt roams around
Through the looking-glass, presents are carried
Bridesmaids on a window-sill
Emma comes in with a bunch of flowers
Fred has finished eating and is just lying around
We take Fred downstairs so Hannah can have a go
Emma comes over to have a look
John does a turn
In a room
Fred and Isobel
At the dinner table
An after-dinner pause
Hannah listens to a speech
'Are you taking photos again?'
Matt smiles
Matt and Emma listen
The cutting of the cake
Emma and the top table
Matt takes a photo of the cake
The wedding reception
We retreat to the drawing room for a while
A very grumbly Fred
Disco dancing
Fred comes over for a bop
More wedding dancing
Emma and Matt get on down
Fred scopes the room
Fred and Isobel
Isobel and Fred relax in the quiet room
The baby Fred
Fred and Nosher
Back at the flat, Fred's asleep again
