Wynyard Hall - Kathryn and Luke

Snow snow snow…and ice!  And that light!  Wow!

Covered with a fresh fall of pure white snow, Wynyard Hall created a dream setting for Kathryn and Luke's January wedding earlier this year.  The winter low sun, which we are always fans of, only added to the effect, and created ideal conditions to capture some truly magical images for Kathryn and Luke. 

Kathryn and Luke's story began at the tender age of 14.  She didn’t want to play paintball with her friends so she decided to go and chat with the lad working at the venue instead.  Some weeks later Luke looked her up on facebook, they got chatting again and arranged a date.  8 years later, they were wed.

Luke works on a farm and wanted to make his much loved career path a small part of their day.  He asked to borrow a tractor which became his wedding transport to the venue. Kathryn had no idea of his plan and after a quick peak out of the bedroom window, loved the surprise, seeing the brand new huge green tractor clad with wedding bows and ribbons. 

Kathryn is a very talented singer, and to much delight of all of their guests decided upon an impromptu performance with their evening wedding band.  She sang a stunning rendition of Edd Sheeran’s Photograph, relaying afterwards funny stories about her and the band members who are long friends, to the raucous laughter of her guests. 

Here is a brief glance of our first wedding of 2018, enjoy!

The Italian Villa, Dorset - Carla and Dannel

When wedding photographer bride, Carla got married, we knew the day was going to be something special.  She and Dannel were married in the Italian Villa in Canford Cliff's near Poole, a stunning mediterranean styled venue complete with ornamental lake and extensive individually themed gardens.

Carla's innate style carried through to their big day.  Her wedding dress was hand made and bespoke designed to her tastes, with a smaller version of the same gown created for her daughter.  The floor to ceiling floral decor were adorned with garlands and glittering baubles suited to match their Christmas themed December wedding.  From her accessories to the tea light candles that decorated the garden stone folly, she gave everything such attention to detail.  The surprise wedding singers were a fantastic addition to their already amazing wedding. Grace carefully posed as a wedding guest throughout the day, and even had a table place set out for her, but when the cook came in to entertain the guests in song, she stood and joined her husband in a marvellous performance. 

Here is a little insight to their fantastic big day!

Beamish Hall - Kieley and Peter

As a recommended supplier, Beamish Hall is a venue that we visit regularly.  A grand stately home with beautiful grounds and stunning architecture, it is a place that we always love to work at - and it made the perfect wedding venue for Kieley and Peter’s wedding in February. 

Kieley looked stunning in her wedding dress, with it’s lace detailing, tulle skirt and full length veil and I adored the pretty blush colour that she dressed her bridesmaids in.

The day was filled with lots of laughter and fun.  Kieley and Peter’s relaxed and carefree nature spread throughout the entire wedding party which made for a thoroughly enjoyable day which was a pleasure to be a part of.

Beamish Hall - Jenny and Jim

Jenny and Jim's winter wedding at Beamish Hall was a day filled with love and beautiful moments.  They were married in the Moubucher Suite at Beamish Hall, set in the beautiful North Durham countryside, later sharing a wedding breakfast with their friends and family in the Hall's winter gardens. 

Here are a few images from their day...
