On Saturday 7th July I captured the #wedding of Brett and
Sophie at Orchardleigh estate Church and the Walled Gardens. After capturing
the grounds, my day started with Sophie in the Garden house. Bridesmaids were
being sorted by 2 makeup artists and a hair stylist. I got Sophie to show me
her dress and shoes along with jewellery.
Sophie then started to get her hair styled and a bridesmaid had a
surprise gift from Brett. It was a mini mystery game that led to a holiday in
Iceland along with some candles and a bath bomb. Sophie's florist arrived with
her flowers and then the makeup artist started after her hair had been
completed. I then went to the terraced gardens where there was a welcome drinks
reception. Brett was with his groomsmen
men meeting and greeting as guests arrived.
I managed to capture a walking shot and a group shot altogether before
heading to the church. Upon my arrival I captured the grounds and details
inside before the first bus of guests arrived. Thankfully Brett arrived as well
and greeted a few guests before taking cover from the sun in the shaded church.
After the third bus of guests arrived it was then time for the arrival of the
mums, bride’s maids and Sophie with her dad in a beautiful wedding car. The
wedding had a lovely reading by Brett's son and a special performance from
Sophie's brother during the signing of the register. 
After the wedding the was a confetti shot on the bridge
before all the guests made their way back to the Walled Gardens. Brett and
Sophie arrived in the wedding car, it pulled up in the gardens and I managed to
capture a few shots. Guests started to arrive from the church and got a welcome
drink and greeted Brett and Sophie. Brad the photographer started to arrange
group shots in a shaded area of the gardens. I managed to capture the wedding
breakfast room empty and the wedding cake looked amazing. Afterwards I got a
few romantic pictures of the happy couple in the lovely gardens. Sophie was
wearing a long vale and I was delighted with the slow motion shot of it
dropping. Special thanks to the bride’s maid with her help. Guests then joined
us in the garden and Brad set up a big group shot before everybody took their
seats in the wedding breakfast room.
After the wedding breakfast there were the speeches, all the
speeches were very well presented, and guests were entertained throughout. My
evening started with getting special guest messages with the help of Adam, he
did a great job getting everyone to leave a few special words. Inside the party
room and there was a prosecco fountain, sweet table, photo book and a finger
print canvas.
After the cutting of the cake Mike from Kieron Clarkentertainment started the first dance with a lovely confetti bomb. Straight
after it was the father of the bride that took the dance floor to have a dance
with Sophie. My evening ended with the start of Groove Avenue first set, several
guests got up on the dance floor and kick started the party. Congratulations
Brett and Sophie x
