The Wedding of Ian Mayson & Andrea Hunter 2014

 Andrea putting on the final touches of lipstick as she dreams of her wedding day ahead of her.
Pastel shades of blue, lilac and pink gave a vintage slant to Andrea's beautiful bouquet.  Gilt mirrors and a four poster bed added to the grandeur of this special day.
Breath taking views of the fells from Irton, Holmrook church ensured special photographs.

Matthew Bournes Swan Lake at Sadlers Wells



Below is a taster of the review which will be published in the March edition of Dance Dynamic.



The magazine is released on the 25th of February.



A Powerful Sinister Production danced with incredible energy


Out of the mist appears a swan danced by Richard Winsor. Instantly the whole drama of the production intensifies. The swan soars into the air. Christopher realises that this swan is his salvation and feverishly runs after it. He dances with energy and total conviction. The swan moves with fluid inverted actions of his arms and feet he poses with strong lines and evil eyes. All the swans arrive in groups of three and four. They jump and twist and turn their necks letting out hissing sounds producing a menacing and powerful dance. The moon on the set shines a steely grey light on the swans upper bodies accentuating their naked torsos and their beautiful syncopation

Tips of the week for weddings

See todays blog 15th February 2010

Female Guests:

The shops are full of black clothes but don't succumb! Direct your eyes away and look in the colours. White with black trimmings look great. Red with black trimmings will be perfect for November/December Weddings. Why not try purple? No black hats, save those for funerals. If you are worried you will stray towards buying a black outfit take a friend with you to shop. Or go to a small boutique where you can get a personal service.



Snow on the ground very cold. Bring a warm shawl so that you can put this when you are walking in between shots. This will stop you looking blue.
