All newlyweds yearn for the perfect wedding snaps, complete with beautiful backdrops, smiles and laughter. For one loved-up duo, however, there was only one photo prop on their mind: sausage rolls.
Hot on the heels of saying I do, Lauren, 29, and Nathan Reynard, 35, munched down on piping hot sausage rolls to celebrate, and people can't get enough of the marital gesture, deeming it as 'true love'.
The baked goods fans tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Crewe last month, and wanted to seal the deal with a quirky ritual. They decided to enjoy their favourite savoury snack on the steps of Crewe municipal buildings - and even attracted the attention of Greggs while doing it.
The down-to-earth moment was captured by their wedding photographer, Charlotte Talbot, who said that the couple wanted "something fun to do in the wedding photographs straight after the ceremony."
Charlotte said: "Due to it being a 9 am ceremony, Greggs was open, so we seized the opportunity and grabbed some Greggs sausage rolls and had some fun on the steps of the municipal buildings in Crewe. It was so much fun!
"I've captured the couple through their pregnancy, their newborn photoshoot, and now their wedding day.
"We know each other really well, so they are completely used to being in front of the camera and we just went for it and had a laugh whilst doing the photoshoot!
"We did get some funny looks from people walking past as it's not very often you see a bride and groom eating a sausage roll at 9.30am!"
Nathan and Lauren loved the photos Charlotte managed to capture, and say they are a great addition to their wedding album.
Lauren said: "We really laughed when the photographer sent them over, we felt they perfectly reflected the fun light-heartedness of our relationship.
"Charlotte, our photographer, was amazing! She made us feel so at ease and captured some beautiful moments between my husband and I, and our little one on the day.
"We never in a million years expected that the photo of us eating our Greggs on the steps of the municipal buildings would gather so much attention and both Nathan and I, have laughed lots about it since.
"After the ceremony finished both my husband and I were super hungry and I just said, 'Let's grab a Greggs before heading home.'
"We sat on the steps of the registry office eating our sausage rolls and our photographer caught us in the act!
"Not exactly your typical wedding breakfast, but very typically us."
The photographer was left blown away after finding out the British bakery chain had shared her picture on their social media pages.
She said: "I contacted Greggs to show them what we had got up to and was absolutely over the moon when they asked to share the photograph!
"To see that people love it too makes me so happy!
"As a wedding photographer, I am always looking for fun and different poses and ideas for couples and can't wait to try new ideas in the future!
"Who knows what's next!"
In the comments of the post, people have left encouraging comments such as "This is perfect" and "I mean, I would do this too."
Someone else wrote: "I had Gregg's for breakfast the morning of my wedding", and another commented: "True love 100%."
