Wedding photography on a wintery day as they got married at the Old Marylebone Town Hall in London, UK

The couple walked towards the park, hand in hand, ready to exchange their vows and begin their married life

It was a cold, wintery day as they got married at the popular and elegant Old Marylebone Town Hall in London, UK, but this didn’t stop them from enjoying a walk towards the park. The bride holds onto the groom’s arm while he carries her bouquet for her during this romantic outing.

Maria and Rich spent New Year’s Eve in London “for a change of scenery” and decided to get married whilst they were here in the capital. They wanted to surprise their family and friends with the news, and so they left everyone behind. But, upon realizing they needed two witnesses to sign the marriage register, they had to borrow two staff members from the hotel where they were staying.
