Rutland Hall HotelOn a beautiful July afternoon, I had the pleasure of capturing Alice and Kieran’s magical wedding at the stunning Rutland Hall Hotel. Their day was filled with laughter, surprises, and pure joy as all their planning came to life in the most perfect way.
The Anticipation
Alice and Kieran spent countless hours meticulously planning every little detail, and their most anticipated moment was seeing everything come together. For them, it wasn’t just about the aesthetics, but the excitement of having all their favourite people in one place, creating memories that would last a lifetime. From the floral arrangements to the seating charts, each element of their day was designed with love and thoughtfulness.
A Few Surprises Along the Way
No wedding day is without its unexpected moments, and Alice and Kieran’s was no exception. Just before Alice was about to walk down the aisle, the skies darkened, and a light rain began to fall. But, as if by magic, the rain stopped right before her grand entrance. As the ceremony began, a tractor passing by during the vows brought a bit of humor to the proceedings, adding a quirky and memorable touch.
Favourite Moments
When asked about their favorite part of the day, Alice and Kieran both said, “All of it!” The day was everything they had dreamt of and so much more. One highlight for the couple was having their dog, Hugo, by their side. There was also a sweet moment when both of their grandads signed the registrar, creating a beautiful generational memory.
The speeches brought out both laughter and tears, blending emotions perfectly. And of course, Kieran’s favorite part was the dancefloor, where he let loose with their friends and family, making it a night to remember.
Heartfelt Advice for Future Couples
Alice and Kieran’s advice to couples planning their weddings? “Do it, do it, do it!” They encouraged future brides and grooms to follow through on their ideas, no matter how big or small, as those thoughtful touches will make the day uniquely yours. They also reminded couples not to stress too much over the small details, as when the day arrives, none of that will matter – the overwhelming joy of the moment will take over.
The day goes by so fast, they suggest, that maybe you should even consider a two-day celebration to extend the magic!
The End of a Perfect Day
At the end of the night, Alice and Kieran relaxed in the hot tub, reflecting on the incredible day they had just experienced. Surrounded by the love of family and friends, they couldn’t believe how quickly the day had flown by.
Now, as newlyweds, they are most looking forward to their honeymoon in Jamaica and continuing to build a beautiful life together.
A Photographer’s Perspective
Working with Alice and Kieran was an absolute pleasure. Their kind words about Oliver Kershaw Photography truly mean the world to me. Alice mentioned how I was able to blend in with the crowd, yet also take charge when needed to capture those important moments. Their feedback – “I wouldn’t change a thing” – makes me even more excited to continue documenting love stories like theirs.

Alice and Kieran’s wedding at Rutland Hall Hotel was a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. From the surprise tractor to the emotional speeches, every moment was uniquely theirs.
