Rivervale Barn Wedding Photography | Adam & Catherine

February 27th, 2012

Yesterday we were back at the beautiful Rivervale Barn for Adam and Catherine’s wedding day.

What a fabulous day for a wedding, we could not have hoped for better weather for this lovely couple!

Catherine looked gorgeous in her dress and we loved the green theme.
It was so vibrant and colourful – just how we love our photography to be!

Their guests were treated to a surprise during the wedding breakfast… three talented singers from Soprano Bella, two dressed as firemen! We were blown away with how entertaining they were and there was such an amazing atmosphere!

It’s quite normal for us to see the groom with his heads in his hands during the best man speech, but on this occasion many of the wedding guests also felt Adam’s pain!
The best men delivered a great speech that had most guests laughing and squirming in equal measure in their seats!

It was great to work with Roger again from Diamond Films we really admire his work and the style he creates. There was a lovely atmosphere at this wedding so we’ve no doubts their wedding video will be hugely entertaining!

We loved the tunes coming from Innovents for Adam and Catherine’s evening disco. The dance floor and wedding breakfast area looked amazing with the green uplights supplied that complimented their colour theme perfectly!

We wish Adam & Catherine all the best for their married life together & hope they have an amazing honeymoon!

Rivervale Barn Tasting Day | February 2012

February 18th, 2012

On Wednesday we were back at the beautiful Rivervale Barn to photograph their latest tasting event.
As always, the set up looked fantastic with many of the recommended suppliers decorating the barn ready for the event!

Nick and his team did a super job, the food looked amazing and (trust me on this) it tasted just as good as it looked!
Everyone was in high spirits and thoroughly enjoyed sampling all the different food and drink choices on offer.

Thank you again to Hayley and the events team for creating a fantastic evening. We are really looking forward to another year of weddings at the incredible Rivervale Barn.

Here’s a few images from the evening:

Warbrook House Wedding Photography | Alan & Zoe

February 12th, 2012

What a beautiful day for a wedding! We heard that more times yesterday than we have for some time…

Alan & Zoe were the lucky couple to have not only a white wedding, but beautiful blue skies too, we were very happy to be there to photograph it for them!
We captured some photos of Zoe getting ready in their beautiful home, she looked amazing in her stunning dress and long veil, before heading on to a very snowy St. Mary’s Church in Eversley.

After the lovely ceremony, complete with amazing children’s choir, we took some photo’s outside the church and despite the cold everyone was beaming with smiles!
From here it was a short drive down the road to Warbrook House, to celebrate at the drinks reception & wedding breakfast. It was a great setting for a wedding at this time of year, with plenty of space and beautiful views out across the gardens! Alan & Zoe had arranged for a harpist to serenade their guests during the drinks reception, which was really added to the atmosphere.

There was a lovely intimate room all set for their wedding breakfast at Warbrook House, featuring personalised candles and amazing individual frames with photos of each of the wedding guests acting as place cards (in Zoe’s own words… “thank you facebook!”).
Alan & Zoe were fantastic together and a pleasure to photograph. They braved the cold to make the most of the beautiful day without hesitation which resulted in some great shots of their lovely wedding day.

We left Alan, Zoe and guests to enjoy their wedding breakfast and evening celebrations. We wish them well for their future together as a married couple!

Here’s a sneaky peak at a few of their images from their special day!

Pre-Wedding Photography | Kevin & Kate

February 4th, 2012

Yesterday we were out and about photographing Kevin and Kate for their pre-wedding shoot.

Despite the beautiful blue skies, it was a (very) chilly day so we were all wrapped up warm!

Kevin and Kate were fantastic, totally relaxed and very natural together. We had a lovely time catching up with them and capturing some great shots!

We can’t wait for their wedding in June at the fantastic Rivervale Barn
