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
