YORKSHIRE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY, PAPAKATA TIPI | HELEN AND DAVID:MARRIED
August 13, 2009They say you are connected to everyone by six degrees of separation. David went to the same university as my friends boyfriend, and they lived in the same house. When Emma and Jules got married 4 years ago, I photographed their wedding (and doubled as a guest!), but Helen and David were in Japan and couldn’t make it. When Helen and David got married last weekend, Emma and Jules were away, and unfortunately couldn’t make it. So, it must have been fate that at some point I would meet Helen and David!
Their wedding was held at Helen’s parents house in the stunning North Yorkshire dales, and they had paid incredible attention to detail. Every aspect of the wedding was as stunning as the scenery, and it was a joy to photograph.
Helen’s gorgeous 1920’s inspired Jenny Packham dress:
Inside the PapaKata Marquee. This is no ordinary marquee, it is more like a tipi and looks amazing inside and out:
My favourite detail, a sweetie table flanked by photos of Helen and David’s parents on their wedding days!
The florists at Hart Company did an amazing job with the flowers, the bouquets screamed understated elegance and the flowers in the PapaKata tents were just stunning:
To see more of Helen and David’s wedding, there is a Yorkshire Wedding Photography slideshow, and an Online Wedding Photography Gallery. The password for the gallery is their married surname, all in lowercase letters.
Helen and David, it was so lovely to meet you and your families, and I hope you had a very relaxing honeymoon x

Wow these are awesome! Your detail shots are fantastic. Helen’s dress is a total show stopper, and the marquee is one of the coolest things I have ever seen!

Fantastic images Rebecca. I love the one of the little girl witnessing the signature, it’s my favourite.

WOW! The tipi looks amazing, the dress stunning and the little girl watching the signing of the register beautiful, my favourite too! As always your detail shots rock! :o)

A brilliant set of shots, Rebecca. I particularly love the registry signing too. But as a self-confessed sweetie-addict that ‘help yourself’ table wins it for me.
