Crabbs Barn wedding photography for Hannah & Craig

Crabbs Barn Wedding Photography – It was a rather humid day to start with for Hannah and Craig’s Wedding but the almighty downpour before Hannah arrived at Crabbs Barn made way for cooler air and sunshine. Hannah had her hair and make up done at home so just leaving a few final bridal preparations to do at Crabbs Barn. Hannah’s Wedding Dress and accessories were laid out in the Bridal Room and whilst these were being photographed, the girls were excitedly getting ready. When Craig arrived at Crabbs Barn, he just needed to put on his cravat and jacket before he was ready with his Best Man and Usher for a few pictures in the grounds – Hannah being well out of sight! It wasn’t long before Hannah, her Mum and Dad, Bridesmaids, Frankie, Julia and Catherine were all ready for their pictures. They stepped outside as it was such a lovely day and we had time to take some nice images. Paul from Crabbs Barn arrived shortly afterwards to take them on the short walk to the front of the barn.

Craig was safely tucked away inside the Barn waiting for Hannah to take her Dad’s arm and walk into the Ceremony. Following the Ceremony, Hannah and Craig socialised with their Guests during the Drinks Reception ouside enjoying the sunshine.

After a little while it was time to get on with some family group pictures and fun bridal party shots. With these over with swiftly, Hannah and Craig had a short break before it was time time to take Hannah and Craig for their together pictures around the grounds.

Hannah and Craig were then showered in petals before the Wedding Breakfast commenced. The Speeches followed the Wedding Breakfast and we captured some great moments, especially with the Best Man’s Speech! Afterwards everybody relaxed outside and the evening Guests started to arrive. This was the best time to escape for a few minutes with Hannah for a few extra pictures using the evening light. After the cake cutting, it was time for Hannah and Craig’s First Dance. What a fabulous First Dance! Then to cap a memorable day for such a happy couple, a beautiful sunset!

Wedding Photography Crabbs Barn – Stacey & Ollie

Wedding Photography Crabbs Barn for Stacey & Ollie – The sun was shining brightly when we arrived at Stacey’s family home at the start of Stacey and Ollie’s Wedding Day. The finishing touches for the hair and make-up were being completed, so whilst these were going on we took some detail shots of Stacey’s accessories as well. Panic!! – a bag of important items had unfortunately been taken to the Church in Dad’s car ready for later!! This did not prove to be a problem as we had left plenty of time, allowing David to jump in our car to retrieve the bag, panic over, all part of the service!! Once everybody was ready we used the nice garden for some of Stacey’s pictures as well taking a few pictures inside, before departing for the St Peter’s and St Paul’s Church, Black Notley. Ollie was there with his Best Man and Usher, their Flowergirl, Olivia and Pageboy, Joshua. After taking a few pictures and a few of the Guests arriving, it was time for the arrival of Stacey. Following the church service, Stacey and Ollie were greeted outside the Church door by children from the school where Stacey teaches. Whilst some requested family group pictures were taken, the guests were offered chocolate coated strawberries and sparkling wine! Some nice pictures of Stacey and Ollie walking towards the car and being showered in confetti were captured before everybody left for the Wedding Reception. Stacey and Ollie chose the superb Wedding Venue of Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon, for their Reception. The Pavilion decorated with bunting looked lovely and Guests enjoyed the Drinks Reception. Bridal Party photographs happened during the afternoon together with Stacey and Ollie’s pictures. Later with all the guests seated for the Wedding Breakfast, the Speeches took place before the meal. After the meal, Stacey and Ollie took a walk in the lane and around Crabbs Barn, accompanied by Olivia and Joshua, where some nice images were captured, ending with a sunset picture. A little while later with their Evening Guests arrived, it was time for the cake cutting and First Dance. A lovely Wedding!

Wedding Photography Crabbs Barn for Deborah & Nick

The popular Wedding Venue, Crabbs Barn was the chosen venue where Deborah and Nick held their Wedding Reception. Our day started at Deborah’s Parents’ home for some pictures, inside the house as well as outside. Deborah’s Parents had a lovely garden and as the weather was good we took advantage.Shortly afterwards we left to go to St Peter and St Paul’s Church, Black Notley. Nick was there with his Groomsmen, so when they were ready we took a few pictures of them in the Church grounds. Deborah arrived not long after and the church service began. A few family group pictures were taken afterwards before the Guests lined the path for the confetti shots before it was time to leave. Crabbs Barn looked wonderful as always and the guests enjoyed the Drinks Reception outside in the sunshine. After a while we took Deborah and Nick for a quick walk around the grounds for their pictures.Deborah and Nick had arranged a surprise air display, so we had to have perfect timing to finish the ‘everybody’ shot just as the plane arrived! What a superb air display!Guests were then invited to be seated for the speeches followed by the Wedding Breakfast. Whilst the Band were setting up for the evening entertainment we managed to take Deborah and Nick for a few minutes for a few evening pictures. Their Evening Guests arrived followed by the cutting of the cake and the First Dance. A night shot outside Crabbs Barn finished our coverage of Deborah and Nick’s special day.

Wedding Photography for Jo and Lee – Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon

It was a glorious day when we arrived at Jo’s house for the final bridal preparations. Lots of excitement coupled with lots of things going on but it was all was running smoothly. A patch of shade in the garden allowed us to take the portraits pictures of Jo, her Parents and Bridesmaids before leaving to go to Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon. With a few pictures of Lee and his Groomsmen taken, it wasn’t long before Jo arrived. After the Civil Ceremony Jo and Lee went for a short car ride before returning to join their Guests who were enjoying the Drinks Reception. With the blue sky, warm sunshine, Crabbs Barn looked wonderful and was enjoyed by everybody. Making sure Jo and Lee had time to be with their Guests in between we took some family photographs, and fun bridal party shots. Just before the Wedding Breakfast we whisked Jo and Lee away from everybody for a few pictures of just the two of them. Following the Wedding Breakfast and coverage of the Speeches the happy couple and their guests relaxed in warm sunshine in the grounds. With lots of laughter, some relaxed informal pictures were taken before Jo and Lee’s pictures in the evening light. Good fun, nice images, taken prior to their First Dance. Shortly afterwards we left them to continue their celebrations.

Nicola, her Mum and the Bridesmaids were busily getting ready but they were all relaxed, organised and enjoying themselves.

Moment over, we got on with the pictures! At Crabbs Barn Kris and the guys had a few pictures taken before Nicola arrived. With the Guests seated, Nicola made her entrance into the Barn for the Civil Ceremony. After the Ceremony, Nikki and Kris led their Guests outside for the Drinks Reception. A little while later we took a few family group pictures and fun bridal party pictures . Just before the Wedding Breakfast Nicola and Kris joined us for a short walk around Crabbs Barn. After covering the Speeches and in the gap before the evening celebrations, Nikki and Kris wanted a few more pictures of the two of them in the lane and around.
