Me and Gary were talking via an online dating site. We were speaking non stop throughout the day and late at night for two days before meeting at his tattoo studio for the first time. We just clicked with each other, it was all so easy, there was never any struggle to think of things to talk about and we made each other laugh a lot. It felt right for us to meet up. We were inseparable from day 1, we just fit.

“There was no awkwardness like we had both experienced in previous relationships, it felt like we had always known each other.”

After only six months, Gary proposed to me at the end of a nice evening out together. There was no hesitation or doubt in my head. Our families and close friends weren’t surprised by our quick engagement, we are always told how natural we are together and everyone can see the love we have for each other. New people that we meet always assume that we have been together for years! I also have two children from a previous relationship and they took to Gary as quickly as I did, as Gary did to them too. Everything worked out perfectly. Ten months after Gary proposed, was our wedding.

Today I get to share with you the traditional, but fun wedding of Michelle and Martin from Jamie Penfold Photography that took place at the South Causey Inn in Stanley, Durham. I think a wedding taking place in a traditional pub is awesome!

We originally met on the millennium night whilst out celebrating with friends. But due to Martin leaving to go to Germany with his regiment, we agreed it would be better if we parted. Time past we both went our separate ways had long term relationships and children. Years past and I wanted a tattoo and with Martin leaving army after serving, 10 years he become a tattooist. I got a few tattoos done we both were single and almost picked up from where we left off. There was always an unspoken thing we had between us and I feel our story, which I have shortened as much as possible otherwise we’d be on all day, is definitely the finding of true soul mates.
