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!

Ufton Court Christmas Wedding Photography | Oliver & Hayley

January 1st, 2012

On Friday we photographed Oliver and Hayley’s wedding day.

We started the morning preparations at Wokefield Park where Hayley was busy with her girls getting ready. Hayley’s dress was beautiful with stunning details – a lot of hours had clearly gone into designing the dress!

We then headed onto Ufton Court where Oliver was nervously awaiting his beautiful bride. Oliver had his best friend fly over from America to support him as best woman, we’re sure that with such a lovely wedding, she would have really enjoyed her first trip outside of the US!

The Barn looked beautiful with all the Christmas decorations, Ufton Court’s Christmas tree is always extremely impressive at 25ft tall!

Following the wedding ceremony, the guests headed over to Ufton Court house for their drinks reception. Beautiful fireplaces and beautifully paneled walls ensure that, even on the wettest winters day, the main house at Ufton Court is very warm and inviting. We were happy to make use of many of the all the indoor photographic opportunities this lovely venue has to offer.

Oliver & Hayley also had a videographer – The Camera Chap who we have worked with previously and it was great to work together again!

One surprise for the wedding guests was Hayley who treated the wedding guests by singing a beautiful song just before the speeches. She was assisted by an extremely good pianist who played throughout the wedding breakfast, filling Ufton Court Barn with musical atmosphere.

Oliver & Hayley had a musical theme to their wedding, which was visible on everything from table names, fantastic mini-piano name tag holders, and even wedding cake!

True to form, the evening celebrations were started with an amazing Jazz band who played for the first dance and for Hayley and her father which was lovely to see before the rest of the guests joined them on the floor!

We left Oliver and Hayley to enjoy the rest of their evening with friends and family.

They are off to Finland for their honeymoon, we hope they have a lovely time and wish them and their family a very Happy New Year!

We had the pleasure of photographing Vicky and Ben who had a Christmas wedding at the gorgeous Wokefield Park.

The day started off at Vicky’s parents house where we captured Vicky getting ready with her family.

Onto Wokefield where we enjoyed an intimate ceremony service with Vicky & Ben’s closest friends and family.

The weather was great for December and we were able to make the most of the lovely grounds at Wokefield.

Here’s a few images from their special day!

Jo & Adam’s Christmas Wedding at Rivervale Barn

December 12th, 2010

We were very happy to photograph Jo & Adam’s Christmas wedding at Rivervale Barn yesterday.

It was an emotional start to the day for bride and groom, both full of love and excited anticipation.

Jo looked stunning in her beautiful dress and entered the ceremony to the beautiful sound of Adele and “Make you feel my love”. I don’t think there were many dry eyes left by the time she joined Adam at the front!

We took advantage of the stunning bridal suite at Rivervale Barn for some of the photos as, although dry, it was cold outside!
This gave our lovely couple a chance to warm up and us to get some great shots!

We wish them both all the best for their future together, here are a few pictures from their day!

Andrea & Matt’s Winter Wedding at Rivervale Barn

December 5th, 2010

On Saturday we photographed Andrea and Matt’s gorgeous winter wedding at the beautiful Rivervale Barn in Yateley.

There was still some snow at Rivervale which made Andrea & Matt’s day feel even more Christmassy!
We love a good Christmas wedding and to get snow too is a real treat!

The setup looked fabulous, a great example of a winter wedding at Rivervale Barn! With so much colour injected into the table displays and chair covers and the backdrop of an amazing 20ft Christmas Tree, the Reception Barn at Rivervale looked great!

Another nice touch was a member of the family singing during the drinks reception, she was amazing and it created such a lovely atmosphere.

Andrea looked gorgeous and we really enjoyed getting some great couple shots of the two of them together.

Andrea and Matt are off on their honeymoon to Thailand which sounds fantastic! We hope they have a lovely time, here’s a few images from their special day!
