  • Essex Barn Wedding – Sarah & Bob

    Essex Barn Wedding Photography – Sarah & Bob

    Sarah and Bob had an Essex Barn wedding at Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon.

    It was beautiful weather at a wonderful Venue. As we arrived we were joined by some of the Wedding Guests. Meeting and greeting happened so we captured these moments. Some Guests had arrived early and made the most of the setting enjoying the weather.

    After Bob had spoken to some of the Guests we took him, together with his Ushers and Best Man for a few pictures.

    It was soon time for them all to go into the Barn and take their seats for the Ceremony. Sarah travelled to the venue with her two sons and Bridesmaids. Matthew and Adam,Jayne and Sophie had done a good job in calming the nerves that Sarah felt! After a few pictures and seeing the Registrars, Sarah escorted by Matthew and Adam entered the Barn.

    It’s Now or Never!

    Sarah’s nerves were on hold but as Sarah walked up the aisle they made an appearance! As Sarah arrived at the front the nervous tears went, these were replaced with laughter and tears of joy! Bob had arranged to change the music to ‘It’s now or never” as Sarah arrived. Everyone fell about laughing, this was very apt as Sarah and Bob have been together for 30 years and only now decided to get married! Wonderful moments, lovely pictures.Essex Barn Wedding Kelvedon Once the formalities were over Sarah and Bob went out of the  Barn and went off for a short ride in the car. Their Guests enjoyed Drinks and Canapies during this time. When Sarah and Bob returned they had a little time to socialise  before we got on with taking some requested pictures. A few fun/informal pictures followed. Wedding Photographer EssexLater following the confetti pictures it was time for the Wedding  Breakfast.

    Wedding Photography for Maria & Ian

    It was a bright dry day when we arrived at Crabbs Barn for the Wedding Photography for Maria and Ian.  Maria was getting ready in the Bridal room and we joined her to take a few pictures of her Wedding Dress and Accessories, as well as a few ‘capture the moment’ shots.

    When Ian arrived before he got on with  greeting too many of the Guests, we took a few pictures of him with his Groomsmen. Everyone mingled until it was time to go inside the Barn for the Ceremony. Maria was soon ready and was joined by the Bridesmaids. After a few pictures, it was time to walk around to the Barn. Rain started to fall so we hurried inside quicker than usual.Wedding Photography Essex

    The Reception

    Following the Ceremony, the Guests went into the Garden Room for the Drinks Reception, whilst we took Maria and Ian for a couple of pictures at the gate. The rain had stopped and the ground was drying up.

We managed to take Maria and Ian for a quick walk around the grounds before it was time for the Wedding Breakfast.

    It was a lovely morning when we visited Tracey and Mike for their Pre-Wedding pictures.  Tracey and Mike asked us if we would mind going to their home for their pictures.  We were happy to do so, and after seeing their wonderful garden it was the right place to take some pictures.  First of all though we chatted and talked through details of their Wedding at Crabbs Barn which is going to be taking place soon. Afterwards we went out into the garden where we were spoilt for choice as to where we could take the pictures. The backdrop to the pictures was lovely, and we achieved some nice pictures.
