I love how many UK weddings I’ve been featuring recently. It’s not just my American friends who have rockin’ weddings anymore. Go team GB!
Gemma & Liam’s super stylish, vintage-inspired wedding took place at the moody and dramatic venue of the 13th century George Vaults, Rochester. Just from seeing Gemma’s incredible Fur Coat No Knickers dress and Irregular Choice shoes I knew their wedding would be a beaut. Enjoy these beautiful images people!
Thanks to Sassy for sharing this wedding with us today

I am planning on getting married in Rochester in 2012. I can see that the reception definitely took place at the George Vaults, but it looks like the ceremony was held somewhere else… Wherever it is I love it! Can anyone tell me where the ceremony was actually held???
Hi Vicki, it was at Upnor Castle, Kent.
Hi Vicki
This is Gemma (the bride!) Upnor Castle is just over the river from Rochester and the people there were so helpful and I’m so glad we got married there. If you need any advice with Rochester local suppliers etc, give me a shout
