Sam & Hannah Wedding Coombe Lodge & Bishop Sutton Church


On Saturday 20th October I captured the #wedding of Sam and Hannah at the Holy Trinity Bishop Sutton and Coombe Lodge. My day started with Hannah at her parents house. Hannah was busy with make-up and the bridesmaids we having their hair styled. Mum showed my upstairs to the wedding dress and I captured the jewelry and shoes. Sam had got Hannah a lovely engraved bracelet with the wedding date on. Dad got out a big bottle of champagne and popped it open in the kitchen with everybody having a glass. I then moved onto the church to capture the detail shots before the groomsmen arrived. 
Sam arrived with his best men and with the ushers already at the church they all got their button holes on and had a few pictures with Jordan. Guests started to arrive and it wasn't long until mum and the flower girls arrived in a classic car. The bridesmaids were next and finally Hannah and her dad arrived in the classic car. Once the wedding party had walked up the isle Mark the vicar started the ceremony. I was able to capture the wedding from the front and during the second him I changed location to the back. This meant I was able to capture the readers and the address. There was also the local choir in the church and they sang a couple of lovely songs during the signing of the register, afterwards Sam and Hannah walked up the Isle as husband and wife.
Outside the church and guests set up two lines for a big confetti shot. Sam and Hannah got in the classic cat and headed to Coombe Lodge. At Coombe Lodge and Lee Hatherall photography started the romantic shots, followed by the bridal party. The was a jazz band in the garden creating a lovely mood while guests enjoyed a welcome drink and canapes. I captured room details before Lee set up remaining group pictures to complete his list. The speeches were before the food and I really enjoyed them. Lots of laughter, a few tears and some incredible stories.
My evening started getting special guest messages. There was a guitarist and singer that performed a set for an hour, they were amazing, performing a mixture of songs acoustically with lots of guests singing and dancing along. Bristol Photobooths provided a photo booth for guests to enjoy. There was also a lovely winter sunset with some great colors in the sky, Sam and Hannah headed outside and got a few shots. When the evening room was ready Sam and Hannah cut the wedding cake and Hannah throw her bouquet.  The first dance followed and guests joined them to dance the night away. Congratulations Sam and Hannah x
