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!

Norton Park Wedding Photography | Lee & Lisa

October 31st, 2011

On Saturday we were at Norton Park Hotel, near Winchester, to photograph Lee & Lisa’s wedding.

The morning started off with bridal preparations in one of the bridal suites in Norton Park Manor House.

Lisa’s wedding dress was perfect for an autumn wedding, not having a train – it really helped not having to worry about the back of her dress on the ground. Plus she looked amazing in it!

The ceremony was conducted in Norton Park’s barn which was beautifully lit inside and has bags of atmosphere.

The weather was amazing, we couldn’t have hoped for a nicer day for Lee and Lisa, just how every couple would hope their autumn wedding would be. We made full use the grounds at Norton Park and got some great shots of this lovely couple!

Lee & Lisa’s friends and family were a great bunch who made us feel very welcome and we had plenty of laughs during the day.

Extra guests arrived for the evening celebrations and made full use of our Flaunt, evening mobile studio to capture some fun photos!

We wish Lee and Lisa the best in their future together and hope they have a lovely honeymoon in the Maldives…lucky things!

Warbrook House Wedding Photography | Jon & Yvonne

October 1st, 2011

Yesterday we were just down the road at the amazing Warbrook House for Jon & Yvonne’s wedding.

Yvonne looked beautiful in her dress and was clearly excited to be marrying Jon.

After the ceremony their friends and family congratulated the newlyweds just outside Warbrook House after they were announced by a bagpiper!

It was an amazingly hot day for so late in September, beautiful blue skies allowed the wedding guests to enjoy the gorgeous sunshine with drinks and canapes on the stunning lawns to the rear of the house.

It also made for some beautiful photos and we thoroughly enjoyed making the most of the grounds at Warbrook.

The wedding breakfast set up looked amazing with their black and white theme.

We had a great time providing our Flaunt mobile studio, as all of Jon and Yvonne’s friends and family really enjoyed the props they had provided for their Scottish theme!

Here’s a sneak peek at a few of their images from yesterday!

Highfield Park Wedding Photographers | September Wedding Fayre

September 26th, 2011

Yesterday we exhibited at the fantastic Highfield Park wedding fayre.

Just five minutes down the road from us, Highfield Park is a beautiful De Vere wedding venue, set in acres of beautiful countryside with absolutely stunning views!

Highfield Park happens to be one of only a handful of venues in the area where you are able to have a ceremony outdoors.
And WHAT a setting!
There’s no need to worry if the good old English weather has other ideas either, as Highfield are able to transition you indoors to one of their beautiful rooms to continue your celebrations.

We love Highfield Park, as photographers we are spoiled for choice with so many opportunities!

We thought we’d share a few photos of the venue with you, giving you a sneak peak at the ceremony facilities indoors and out, the lovely bridal suite and the stunning main staircase.

Rivervale Barn Wedding Photography | Paul & Lynsey

September 17th, 2011

Yesterday we were at the stunning Rivervale Barn to photograph Paul & Lynsey’s wedding day.

The ceremony was beautiful and it was lovely to see Paul and Lynsey looking so happy exchanging their vows.

The weather was superb, just as September should be and allowed us to get some great shots!

The reception Barn looked amazing with all their decorations and we could not believe Lynsey’s mum had handmade each individual wedding favour – a beautiful pink love heart. Well done Mum!

During the speeches Paul had us all laughing away, it was one of the most entertaining Grooms speeches we have heard.

Paul and Lynsey are a lovely couple, they were great to work with and we really enjoyed celebrating the day with their friends and family.

Thank you to all the Rivervale staff for another great wedding!

Here’s a few preview images from their special day.
