Aw, that's lovely! SO pleased you admired her dress! Wedding dresses are always interesting to look at, as most of us only ever wear one for a single day in our lives, though some do manage a 2nd or even a 3rd day in our lifetimes!
@@ReelLifePhotos If you are the photographer, then you deserve recognition. the girl is beautiful, as is that dress.The young traveller girls always seem to be pin point perfect with everything. It's an amazing talent you have.The photos are amazing and go a long way to making a memorable day.Great work @ReelLifePhotos.
@sandraoyns-wilson6098 Thank you so much, Sandra Yes, I'm the main photographer, and also videographer. My husband and I started REEL Life Photos 25 years ago. Almost all the videos here are ones that I've shot myself, and have usually also been taking photos at the same time, so lots of work editing them all. Thanks for the compliments! xx
@ReelLifePhotos You and your husband deserve as much praise as is available. Honestly, this may sound funny but you help the bride look stunning.I think it's how you take the photos, the light and and angle. But then again you already know that. Just great work and that gypsy bride is, to me, the most beautiful I have seen.Hope she's OK.
@sandraoyns-wilson6098 Thank you, sweet Sandra. I've seen her father once recently , at another gypsy wedding, but I didn"t have a chance to ask him about his daughter. We both always wish the very best fortunes, a d happiness, of course, fircall our brides and grooms. xx
Thank you, Antonia. Actually, almost all the traveller weddings I've shot nowadays, the brides have worn more modern wedding dresses, so maybe the huge ones you're on about have really gone out of fashion?
I just wish we could get the lads/men looking as well groomed as the bride etc . A shirt that fits and tie done correctly . Men look so smart when dressed for these special occasions and deserve to look as elegant as the bride , these pictures last forever .
@ravenquilts5931 Yes, that would be nice, in an ideal world, and I did recently shoot another Traveller wedding where the groom had insisted that his friends dress smartly for his wedding, so even on a boiling hot day, they were all wearing three-piece suits, but they didn't half suffer! Sometimes, comfort is more conducive to happy expressions and just as special memories. Many Traveller men use their work vans as their mode of transport, so work clothes are often more suitable, particularly if they've come straight from work. Also not everyone can afford formal attire, that may only get used once or twice in their adult lifetimes, during which their figures may also have expanded! They dont have much storage storage space inside their homes and although I know they could hire the suits, it's still extra money for something that several men don't really think of as a priority. The Traveller men also tend to sit together afterwards in one space - usually near a bar - while the ladies sit in the main one that might be beautifully decorated. They just want to enjoy their day their way. I hope that helps?
Beautiful bride, stunning dress and gorgeous flowers. Yhey were very nervous but thats to be expected, marriages are really important to travellers 😊❤😊
Very true, Kirsty! Like the rest of us, they don't always work out, but they at least make it official and make sure they are married first. I also cover many Mudlim weddings, and they too, tend to marry young.
Very true, Kirsty! Like the rest of us, they don't always work out, but they at least make it official and make sure they are married first. I also cover many Muslim weddings, and they, too, tend to marry young. Thank you for your beautiful comment. xx
True, but then that's very common in traveller weddings. They rarely show any public displays of emotion at all. They are happily married though, so all good!
Good question! Yes, traveller girls always dress up beautifully and spend hours having their hair and makeup done, but in general, the men seem to place less value on their appearances. They are much more comfortable in a pair of jeans, really, and I don't blame them.
Yes, she's a Traveller. They were all Travellers at that wedding @SerannityMary ..If you know any Travellers in Huddersfield or Wakefield areas, we are based in Dewsbury, so very local, but this couple are from a site in Stevenage.
At least the dress was lovely not the usual well over top . She looks lovely but terrified. I hope she is loved respected and cared for the whole of her married life.
@wontbelongnow5567 Most women find they get the lion's share of the cleaning and the child rearing, actually, though I do agree that travellers are super house-prpud. Not sure about the physical violence that you hint at, as that scenario can sadly happen in any marriage!
I rarely see such dresses nowadays that you refer to as a "huge lump", Robyn, as they are not really fashionable any more, or else simply cost top much. I have another traveller wedding on 3 August 24, so let's see what the bride will choose there.
Yes, that's true, but it's not that young that she doesn't know what she's doing. Marrying young gives more time to successfully have a family. Too many wonem wait so long to establish their careers and to get on the housing ladder, then once they've finally settled on the man they want to marry, their biological clock is well and truly ticking! There are pros and cons in marrying young, but we all have free choice - in the UK at least. I feel sad for those in some other countries where girls are forced to become child brides. These are both legally consenting adults.
I understand your frustration, Janice, as it would be nice to hear everything the girls are saying, but as they are our clients, I have to respect their wishes not to reveal what they consider to be private conversation. Where appropriate, I believe I edited the music level down, so that their voices could be heard, but as they were also playing copyright music music from the TV, I had no choice but to cover that up or the video would havd been completely blocked in certain countries. Again, as for my choice of music, that is copyright free, I considered it to be a reasonable option rather than absolute silence. If, however, you prefer, you can easily mute the sound and listen to anything else you wish or just watch it in silence. I sadly can't please everyone all of the time, and I actually like this music!
Thank you. Yes, the mother of the bride also dressed well for the occasion. Many people forget to notice anyone other than the bride and groom. Thank you.
@@ReelLifePhotos I would love to know the success rate of these marriages. The couples seem perhaps infatuated with each other, not particularly warm either each other, not connected and the whole affair seems more about glam than love. Speaking from a 63 year old who’s been married 41 years and together five years before that
Lucky you, Wendy! I've been married 3 times, myself, 25 years with husband number 3, but I am HIS wife number 4! I know of 4 gypsy brides who did split up , one after having a baby, but also know of many more who have now got 2, 3 or even 4 childrem, and are fortunately still together. I think the success rate is probably compatible with the rest of the general population.
Oh dear! They do, though. The bride isn't a smiley kind of person you see, and the groom wasn't exactly feeling his best as he explained to me that he'd had his stag do the night before. He's only very young too! She's 3 years older than he is. I hope that helps you a bit, Debra?
It's hard to tell, as travellers rarely show much emotion on their wedding day, until they get to the reception and all the girls have a great time dancing! Thank you for caring! xx
That's normal behaviour at traveller weddings, though, as they get embarrassed about showing love in a public setting..Travellers never kiss at wedding ceremonies either.
@@ReelLifePhotos The young ladies are wearing hair that doesn't compliment their youthfulness. Maybe it is because I don't like the huge long horizontal bump. The young women look much older now with this giant hair. Maybe its because I don't like it.
@@ReelLifePhotos I liked the curls. But to be totally honest, I am not sure older women would look good with that hair. Forgive me. It must be just a matter of taste. If they liked it, that is all that matters.
@hermitlifeinthemountainsub9493 I'm sure that's the reason in your case, but dint worry about it. Each to their own. Fashions come and go, but this one has been around for nearly half a century!
Travellers don't usually have a chance to be alone with their future partner prior to marriage, so they are rarely comfortable together in public initially
Hi, Anne. Thanks for your feedback. I'm glad you liked her dress. As for the hairstyle, it's probably as you are not familiar with this way of doing hair for weddings. It's a standard hairstyle for almost all traveller/ gypsy weddings, and also for almost all Muslim weddings, of which I photograph and video even more than I do gypsy weddings, so I can assure you that it's a very much loved and popular hairstyle.
@@Jaynewaters1970 I had to laugh at that! No, they were just getting ready in a canalside hotel, which made for a good background for taking the wedding photos.
Well, it might be that you've only seen older gypsy weddings? The ones that I tend to video and photograph, have wedding dresses that most of us would be happy to wear.
I understand. I'd also prefer to have left their speech in, but as they were playing music in the background, and I only got snippets of that, this was the best solution. It's not possible to please everyone in choices of music, anyway.
That doesn't actually mean they weren't in love or wanted to be together, though! Travellers rarely give public displays of emotion thos way, and also almost never have a kiss at all in public at the traditional point in their wedding ceremony.
Yes, traveller girls follow the same bridal makeup fashions as most of my Muslim wedding clients, which is a lot heavier than standard European makeup styles. I've got used to it, as I see it a lot. Glad you liked thd hairstyles, though. These hairstyles, again, are also very popular with my Muslim. wedding clients.
Thanks for clarifying your original comment, Marianna. Many of my traveller brides have a heavy underskirt like that, as full skirted wedding dresses have stayed popular for many years. It was her choice at the time, and this wedding was a few years ago.
They work the same as everyone else, Marianna, though its mainly the men working outside the home. They often run a landscaping or manual maintenance business. I'm very surprised you made a strongly negative comment about the bride's wedding dress, though, as it was a perfectly pleasing and respectful dress within normal standards for any UK wedding. I'm not sure if you are based elsewhere and have had little experience of weddings in general?
The bride looks like she belongs elsewhere and not amongst this lot. Her dad could have put his false teeth in for the day and at least done up his shirt and tie. The bride is beautiful, but the rest 👎🏻. I’d never ever have given my permission for my daughter to marry this guy.
Fair enough. Traveller men aren't really into wedding pomp and ceremony, so dressing up for the event isn't asinportant to them as it is to you. The women, though, all love a chance to wear their most glamorous outfits. As for her choice of groom, fortunately, it's a personal preference, and we all hope to find the right match for our own individual needs and tastes, don't we, so it doesn't really matter that you don't rate the groom for your own daughter. I hope she chooses wisely and is lucky enough to find a good man who will become a great team with her, long into the future. x
Hi Heather, I understand your reaction, but travellers most often do things differently. Yes, they can be unruly, bit that's because they haven't learned to follow the same codes of conduct as non travellers. The women tend to dress up beautifully, though, and the little girls too, whereas the men are happiest in their jeans. I'm surprised that you thought this was in a church , though. It was in a Register Office..
Bride looks stunning. She’s clearly nervous but does smile beautifully during the ceremony , nothing to do with lack of affection, just nerves. X
Thank you @jaynay008. That's very perceptive of you, and thoughtful. xx
Beautifully..what a lovely couple wishing them both every Happiness..camera guy ..great job .👍
You are so kind. Thank you @kathleenbladez6700..! xx

Wonder how young this bride was? Absolutely stunning young lady
Thanks, she wasn't overly young, probably around the average age for traveller weddings, and the same age as I too got married, I think.
Interesting. Did not know the word travelers, but does make sense. Hope they are happy.
Oh, I see. Yes, it's a kinder term, I think. Thank you for your good wishes, too.
Can not believe that the groom was stood there with his hands in his pockets!!!!! Obviously etiquette was in short supply.
Different etiquette for travellers, Alison. They haven't had the same life's lessons as you have, you see.
It's hard to know what to do with your hands, anyway, when you are standing nervously in front of a crowd, in an unfamiliar situation.
He is a gypsy after all, dont know the meaning of good manners.
Actually, I find many groom's who don't know what to do with their hands. Very few people
Very few grooms actually know what to do with their hands, as they are not natural models, so please don't be too hard on him.
Who is the other lovely lady in white?
Do you mean the young lady in white who is her bridesmaid, Mae?
The bride looks beautiful, god bless on her perfect day
Thank you so much, Caroline. I'm delighted you enjoyed living their day through the eyes of my camera!

I hope she chooses wisely and is lucky enough to find a good man who will become a great team with her, long into the future. x
See how the whole church party has great respect for the bride and groom and are all suited and booted .. not
Hi Heather, I understand your reaction, but travellers most often do things differently. Yes, they can be unruly, bit that's because they haven't learned to follow the same codes of conduct as non travellers. The women tend to dress up beautifully, though, and the little girls too, whereas the men are happiest in their jeans.
I'm surprised that you thought this was in a church , though. It was in a Register Office..
