Joe & Gemma Wedding at Grittleton House

On Saturday 27th October I captured the #wedding of Jewelry and Gemma at Grittleton House. Once I arrived at this spectacular venue i checked out all of its rooms along with the space outside. This venue is a hidden Gem and I was excited to be capturing a wedding here. My day started with Gemma and the bridal party. There were two hair stylists and a make-up artist all busy sorting everyone out. I managed to capture all the dresses with personalised coat hangers, shoes and jewelry.

I went to see Joe and he was at the bar with his groomsmen, I showed a trusting usher how to correctly put on a button hole and he then went around and put one on each of the lads. Back with Gemma and she was getting her wedding dress tied up by her bridesmaid's. Dad was outside patiently waiting and when he walking in and saw Gemma for the first time it was a very proud and emotional moment for him. The isle walk was lovely and the wedding all went to plan with a couple of readings. Brother from another played during the signing and as the happy couple walked down the isle together.

As guests exited the wedding room there were a selection of drinks available and canapes were being offered around. Brad Wakefieldphotography set up group shots outside and as guests comeback inside there were entertained by the acoustic duo Brother from Another. A special performance by the duo led to Gemma and her dad taking to the dance floor and sharing a dance. Guests joined in dancing afterwards and it made for a lovely 20 minutes of afternoon filming. As guest were invited into the wedding breakfast room, Brad the photographer captured a few more romantic shots on the stairs. The speeches were after the food and they were really enjoyable. There was laughter, praise and the odd tear.

My evening started getting special guest messages from family and friends, a big thank you to the ushers for rounding up all the guests on my list, Gemma and Joe will be forever grateful. There was a caricature doing pictures with lots of guests looked great in cartoon form. The wedding cake was the stand out feature in the party room, the Cakesmiths had did an incredible job, after the cutting of the cake the dj announced the first dance. Guests joined in halfway through and then stayed on the dance floor to dance the night away. Congratulations Joe and Gemma x

Sean & Sue Wedding at the Hare and Hounds Hotel

On Sunday 26th August I captured the #wedding of Sean and Sue at The Hare and Hounds Hotel . Unfortunately the weather was not good with showers pouring and I was preparing myself for being indoor all day. My day started with Sue and her bridesmaid they were both in the middle of having their hair styled. I arranged the jewelry and shoes along with Sue's wedding dress to get some really nice shots. I also managed to capture Sue checking out her wedding flowers and a cheers shot once the bubbles were opened. I then went to see Sean and his groomsmen for some final preparations shots before they went to the bar to meet and greet guests. I was able to go back to see the bridesmaid doing up Sue's wedding dress and then it was time for all the guests to take their seats.

My day started over the cottages with Jenna and her bridesmaid's. The was a hair and make-up station.
