Dan & Reva’s wedding at Porthgwidden Beach in St Ives was another interesting ‘Covid Wedding’. They were originally planning for the whole day at Porthgwidden Cafe , a stunning location on a small picturesque beach in the heart of St Ives.
However the cafe had to close it’s doors because a member of the staff tested positive. Just a week before their wedding everything seems to fall apart. Gladly the lovely owner of Porthgwidden Cafe found a back up plan last minute. She is friends with the management of the St Ives Brewhouse and they offered to move the reception there. So the plan was to still have the ceremony at the beach cafe and then move to the St Ives Brewhouse for the evening, ca 15 minutes walk away on top of the hill with stunning views over St Ives. A great backup plan and everything ran smoothly. It shows yet again that if you stay relaxed and flexible about your wedding day everything will just work out fine…
It was an epic day in St Ives and I had so much fun photographing it. Dan and Reva are such a gorgeous, humble couple, a pleasure to work with, even more so as they are both highly creative and really understand photography, which helps me to get the results I hope for, well it also helps when you have just the right mix: a gorgeous couple, a stunning location (or two), great people to celebrate with and a dedicated team of suppliers.
Dan and Reva, thanks again for letting me be a part of your epic day, it couldn’t have worked out any better! Here is a little taster for you…
