Jane and Dan's wedding

If you like your weddings laid back, full of fun details and in the heart of London town, then you're going to LOVE Jane and Dan's big day.

After an intimate family ceremony at Chelsea's Old Town Hall on the Kings Road, Jane and Dan headed to the seriously cool venue, Brixton East, a former furniture warehouse.

It's awesome - exposed bricks, white walls, open space, a truly industrial venue - but warm and welcoming at the same time, perfect for a wedding that wants to be a proper party.

Brixton East is Victorian, built in 1871, in the heart of Brixton and is a fine example of a nineteenth century furniture warehouse.  The first floor has the original boarded wooden floor (watch those stilletoes) and on it's brick walls the paintwork remains, as it was when packing crates were made for British Motor Parts 40 years age.

Waiting for the fun to begin.

Check out the old giant clock on the second floor.

There's also a small roof terrace (smokers' corner).

Dan is that you behind the bar just before Jane arrived?

Jane and Dan's second ceremony at Brixton East was lovely with Dan's sister officiating and Alison, Jane's sister, reading a very emotional poem.  After the exchange of rings the guests all sang the Madness song It Must Be Love, Love, Love with gusto!

We were rewarded with two canons exploding and covering us all with golden confetti.  An excellent touch.

Jane wore a stunning 1950s style dress.

After all that excitement some glasses of champagne to toast the happy couple.

 Dinner followed - the room brimming with twinkling fairy lights.  Everyone sat down to eat, as pizzas and bowls of salad were passed around the tables.  Who wouldn't want to dig into Pizza and a glass or more of red/white wine?

For dessert Jane and Dan had asked guests to bring along a home-made cake.  "The Great British Bake Off".  So glad the bride and groom didn't judge my homemade effort.  Lemon Drizzle Cake - but it did all get eaten!

The alcohol then flowed freely upstairs, the DJ played and the real party began.

Congratulations Jane and Dan - I absolutely loved being a part of the wedding.
