If you’ve ever had the opportunity to stroll along Chester’s riverfront, you’ll agree that it’s a picturesque waterside haven. So, after the ceremony, we took advantage of this stunning backdrop and headed to the groves for some enchanting photos along the River Dee and over the landmark Jubilee bridge, perfectly capturing the golden hour glow and the warmth of Andy and Amy-Jane’s love. We then moved on to Chester’s iconic bandstand for some heartwarming family shots with Amy-Jane’s & Andy’s daughter, adding an extra layer of fun and love to their wedding album.
