Hedingham Castle Wedding Photography for Lucy & Richard

Hedingham Castle Wedding Photography

It was a beautiful day for the wedding of Lucy and Richard who were married at the wonderful Hedingham Castle. We started at the Garden Cottage which was a hive of activity with everybody getting ready but all was going well. Wedding Photographer Hedingham CastleOnce the Pageboys and Flowergirls were ready they went downstairs freeing up space for the Bridesmaids and Lucy to finish their preparations. Whilst this was going on, David went to meet Richard with his Best Man and Ushers who were arriving at the House. After taking some pictures he returned to the Cottage.  The girls were ready, looking beautiful, so just having enough time for a few shots of them all we set to work.  The Bridesmaids, Flowergirls and Pageboys then went in the car for the short drive to the House.  This allowed us time to take a few Bridal portraits of Lucy before the car returned to transport her to the House.  All together they then walked over the Bridge towards the Castle for the Ceremony. After they exchanged their vows they signed the Register in front of their Guests.  Whilst the Guests left the Castle to go outside, we took Lucy and Richard into the Minstrels Gallery for a few pictures before joining them all outside.Hedingham Castle Wedding Photography Moving swiftly on with taking the requested family group pictures, it wasn’t long before the Guests lined the Bridge for the confetti.  The Reception Drinks were served in the Great Hall and as the sun was still out everybody went into the gardens. The children enjoyed the freedom of the gardens to play whilst we captured the moments. During the afternoon we took a few other pictures together with a few ‘together’pictures of Lucy and Richard.  The Receiving Line preceded the Wedding Breakfast, which was held in the Marquee.

After taking a few pictures of the Evening Guests and a few evening pictures of Lucy and Richard, the Band was set up ready for Lucy and Richard’s First Dance.

We photographed Ross and Katie’s Wedding at Layer Marney Tower in 2007.  A lovely day!
