With a small, intimiate ceremony planned for a park in Cambridge, followed by dinner at the Harvard Faculty Club, I travelled alone on an extremely humid Saturday into Harvard Square. Walking past the USA v England footie match (how embarrassing), the sky didn't look at all forgiving as I approached the Charles Hotel. After meeting with the bride and groom it was clear the day was to be relaxed and a close affair and their totally welcoming nature, along with the rest of their family made my day thoroughly enjoyable. As an aside, while downstairs snapping a few photos of Hannah's little Hawaiian niece and her mother, my always giveaway accent led us to find out that they had a vacation home just a few miles from my family home  in the Cotswolds - we even go to the same pub - small world!

So the park ceremony had to be called off, so the beautiful venue of the Harvard Faculty Club was on stand-by as the heavens opened. Their closest friends and family looked on as the two declared their personally written vows to each other. We managed to sneak a few photos under some of the porches surrounding the club, then two proceeded on to enjoy a wonderful evening of fine food and great toasts. 

It was an absolute pleasure meeting and photographing you and your family Hannah and Tom! I wish you all the best on your journey and with such fine company on your wedding day you've got the best companions to make it with.
