John & Dominika Wedding Day, Rushpool Hall
John and Dominika's wedding at this extraordinary North Yorkshire country house hotel was one of the most emotionally charged, visually stunning and deeply personal days I have ever had the privilege of witnessing. Tears were shed. Laughter echoed through those incredible Gothic halls. And at one point during the speeches, I got a thank you that had me reaching for a tissue. I am not ashamed.
