The Ashes Barns Wedding - Kirsty & Rich - Paul Bell Wedding Photography

The Ashes Barn

Say hello the wackiest craziest couple I have ever photographed, this wedding was non stop from start to finish. I had the pleasure of photographing the lovely couple back in June this year. We had a quick chat with them post wedding to find out a little bit more about them.

How did you both meet?
I was on a night out supporting my friends partner on his first boxing match, and rich was supporting the same person. We all then went on to the pub together. We spoke on and off for few months after untill we decided we go on a date, not been seperated since.

What was the proposal like?

Wacky just like us ????. We were on holiday in Menorca with family and went to a small cove beach at night for some photos. Rich didnt get the chance to do it in front of the sea ( i warned him i would kill him if he was to ever do it if there were people there haha)!!! We went to walk off to a cove and had a joke about having photos taken in front of the port loos. Rich tied his lace and pulled out a ring. After a lot of me running off and dragging him across the floor on his knees I believed him and said yes.

How did you find wedding planning?

Easy and very very enjoyable, after covid and messing up my plans but otherwise I would do it all over again.

Why did you choose your wedding venue?

We originally had Cyprus booked, but unfortunately my older sister wouldn’t of been able to come as she couldn’t afford it. I couldn’t get married without her, my niece and nephews so I cancelled it. The ashes was the first place I came to visit and just fell in love straight away, the venue is absolutely beautiful and the surroundings are just stunning. I booked it straight away, even though Richard hadn’t seen it as he was working.

What was your favourite part of your wedding day?

I dont think i could pick a favourite. The whole day was just amazing, i loved everything about it all.

What song did you have for your first dance, and why did you choose it

We had Sam Ryder set you free blended into N-Trance version.
We loved the acoustic version but didnt want to stand slow dancing for to long, Rich used to be a DJ so he went and blended the songs together. Was a huge hit.
