Tati and Ben

Hambledon Hill, Dorset, 2025

“On top of the world”

The brief from Ben's best friend, Gabriel: "Tati’s the bride and Ben’s the groom. Tati’s lovely auntie, Anna, was really into her pagan ceremonies/spiritualism and had always said she wanted to be the celebrant at Tati and Ben’s wedding. Sadly she died a couple of years ago. So Tati’s mum, Fiona, decided to learn the rituals herself so she could take the place of her sister and do this ceremony on the hill by their house. This was a hand-fasting ceremony the night before the actual wedding up on Hambledon Hill (which is the same hill Ben proposed on and where Anna’s ashes are scattered)."

There was also a broom-jumping ceremony, you can see the tiny handmade broom in the grass if you look closely.

And... “They absolutely love it!! Nicest present they’ve ever received (apparently!).”
