Paul and Wendy decided they wanted a wedding with elements of both the traditional and the modern.
They were very much inspired by a joint visit to India that they had taken before they married. Paul and Wendy became engaged whilst travelling hippie-like in India.
The wedding itself was a civil wedding service held at Stow-Cum-Quy, Cambridge, England.
As you can see, the photographs were taken against weeping willows. At their wedding Paul and Wendy chose to add hippy inspired elements to their fairly formal wedding dress along with colourful flowers.
As the 1990s had progressed many younger brides selected tied flowers over formal bridal sprays. Formal bridal sprays gained new popularity in the 1960s.
Sometimes modern bridal flowers were tied in a natural way with raffia strands or bound with long exotic shiny leaves. At other times colourful ribbons added character. Wendy chose dramatic colours to enhance her dress, a very different look to white roses, pastel orchids or arum lilies.
Wendy chose a red wedding gown and completed the modern approach with a Bindi on her forehead, but did not have her hands done Mehndi style with henna.
