Port Lympne Safari Wedding Photos

“If you want a day of amazing memories captured forever, Jonny is your guy! BOOK HIM NOW!!”

Kirsty & Ben met on tinder (yes, Kirsty is a real life tinderella!) but there were many earlier occasions where they nearly met. Having lots of mutual friends they were at times attending the same parties. They just never crossed paths completely! Kirsty claims she never actually wanted to get married. When Ben said he liked the idea of having a massive party Kirsty was sold! Being one to buck tradition, Kirsty proposed to Ben at home on the year anniversary of when they moved in together. She asked if he wanted to go on another adventure, then gave him an engraved pocket watch. So sweet!

PORT LYMPNE HOTEL RESERVE WEDDING | KENT | UK

We love animals! It’s our mission to visit every zoo in the UK! It made sense that we would get married in one! On one of our first dates we went to a zoo and had such an amazing time. We also love colour! Why pick one when you can have a rainbow? Port Lympne Hotel Reserve was one of the few places that will take you on safari on your wedding day! When we first visited we knew it was the venue for us!

COLOURFUL WEDDING FASHION

The wedding dress was from wed2b. I didn’t want to be a traditional bride with a plain white dress. I found one that was plain so I could add my splash of colour. Maria at Little Black Dress in South Woodford, East London was amazing. She made my dress exactly how I wanted it to be- a bit weird to match my personality!

Moss Bros supplied Ben’s French Connection suit. We loved the colour and design. It also looked like a nice summer suit to wear in July. Bridesmaid’s dresses were made especially to have the bright bold colours that we wanted.

WEDDING DAY ADVICE

Don’t worry about tradition, just do what you want! The day is about the two of you and not about pleasing others. As long as you marry the person you love (and have amazing pictures to keep forever!) that’s all that matters!

We loved that Jonny was so relaxed and there wasn’t a single moment he missed (even when 2 guests had to get off the safari for a wee)! Jonny’s like a ninja with a camera! Very professional but also like a guest and we loved having that atmosphere. Being told to stand here and pose there on our wedding day just isn’t us! We loved that he totally went with the flow. Nothing we asked for seemed like it was any trouble, which was great!
