Mel and Dez met on a sailing trip and have chosen Lustyglaze as their wedding venue because they have a special connection to the sea and wanted a relaxed vibes outdoor wedding on the beach.
When I emailed Mel about the photo list and she replied she doesn’t want any posed photos at all and just wanted me to ‘do my thing’ I knew straight way that this was the kind of day I love photographing so much. And epic it was, I enjoyed every minute of it!
I kept checking the weather forecast on the run up to the wedding and it was a mix of sunshine and drizzle. It turned out much better than expected, no rain in sight just blue skies and tropical vibes. One big cloud was stuck further inland but never made it across the beach…It was all set for their dream outdoor wedding! In fact it got so hot most of the wedding guests had a dip in the sea at some point in the day.
Mel and Dez said ‘I do’ at Cornwall’s top beach wedding venue Lusty Glaze. This picturesque cove in the heart of Cornwall is one of my favourite venues, the perfect setting for barefoot, beach-loving couples who want to get married on the beach. And now you can even have the whole beach just by yourselves. Yes you heard right, no windbreakers and speedos photobombing your wedding photos, instead you have ‘something blue’ included in every wedding at Lusty.
I guess my favourite part of the day was when The Stowes started playing their Celtic version of “what shall we do with the drunken sailor’ and started the outdoor dance floor going in beautiful sunset light. The atmosphere was buzzing! Especially after we had to endure so long with no dancing during the Covid crisis.
Mel and Dez, you were truly rocking it! What an honour to have played a part in your very special day, thanks so much for choosing me as your wedding photographer. Here is a little taster for you…
