A summer wedding at Willow Marsh Farm in Leicestershire — a barn with a wall of glass, a meadow full of coloured smoke, and two people who were certain they hated having their photograph taken.

A sublime London wedding. A ceremony at Old Marylebone Town Hall, confetti on the steps, a bus tour around the streets of the city, and then drinking and dancing the night away at The Italian Greyhound.

An intimate South London wedding — vows at Lambeth Town Hall, a first look in the arched walkway, one long table at the Half Moon in Herne Hill and an evening at The Department Store in Brixton.

A wedding on the stage at Wilton’s Music Hall in Whitechapel — the oldest surviving grand music hall in the world, a room that sang along, gold confetti cannons and one of the best brass bands in London.

A summer wedding in the City of London. Getting ready upstairs at The Ned, vows in the Saloon, a walk out into an empty Bank junction, and a band that emptied the tables by nine.

A humanist ceremony at Grantley Hall near Ripon — a helicopter on the lawn, portraits in the Japanese garden, fireworks over Nidderdale and a party that carried on in the basement nightclub.

A summer wedding on the Thames at The Hurlingham Club in Fulham — an arrival by open-top Triumph, vows under the glass roof of the Palm Court, and forty-two acres of garden to lose an afternoon in.

A Grade II listed Victorian mansion on the North Somerset coast, a walk down the grand oak staircase, dinner in the library and a dance floor that filled in ninety seconds and never emptied.

Vows at St Bride’s on Fleet Street, a black cab through the Square Mile, confetti in the sunshine and a candlelit wedding breakfast in the Tapestry Room at The Ned.

A City of London wedding — vows in the round nave of Temple Church, built by the Knights Templar in 1185, then dinner by candlelight at Spencer House in St James’s.

A wedding in the Barbican Conservatory — two thousand species of plant under glass, a ceremony led by a close friend, and portraits on the most photogenic concrete in London.

A humanist ceremony in a Herefordshire barn a year after the legal one — a gold sequinned dress, the most comprehensive confetti shower I have photographed, coloured smoke in a wheat field and a first dance that finished everybody off.

Kilts, vows in the RWB Room, confetti in the courtyard, portraits in the middle of Threadneedle Street and a night that did not stop. A documentary wedding at The Ned.
