Relaxed & Pretty London Picnic in the Park Wedding - Whimsical...

Relaxed & Pretty London Picnic in the Park Wedding - Whimsical...

via

Johnny and Hannah tied the knot on Saturday 11 th June 2015 at Stoke Newington Town Hall in London. They hoped to create a relaxed and pretty day with a picnic in the park for their guests. The sun shone down as their guests tucked into delicious food from Whole Foods, it looked like the most wonderful atmosphere. They then headed off to the pub to celebrate, a perfect end to their laid back day.

The gorgeous floral arrangements were created by the bride and her bridesmaids. Let's not forget to mention the super stylish attire too. Johnny was suited and booted by The Kooples and Hannah's stunning modern dress was from Phase Eight. Smiles a plenty.

Thanks so much to the brilliant Miss Gen Photography for sharing these beautiful images with us here today.

"Hannah and Johnny planned a lovely intimate wedding celebration starting with a touching ceremony at Stoke Newington Town Hall with their closest family and friends (some of whom travelled all the way from New Zealand). After their ceremony, I took them for a wander down Church Street to capture some relaxed, natural portraits in their local neighbourhood, then into Clissold Park for their sumptuous picnic with fresh food from Wholefoods and homemade chutney. Hannah and her bridesmaids created their own bouquets using natural twine, white roses and baby's breath bought from New Covent Garden Flower Market.
I loved how Hannah and Johnny created a modern, non-traditional, laid-back wedding day and it was a pleasure to capture their day for them."
