  • Wedding Photography at Fennes for Maddy & Gordon

    We were delighted to be booked for Wedding Photography at Fennes for Maddy & Gordon.

    We arrived at Fennes as Maddy was getting ready upstairs in the House and Gordon was getting ready in the Cottage. We went up to see Maddy first and took a few pictures of what was going on. David went off to see Gordon who was almost ready for his pictures with his sons and Best Man.

    Not long after this Maddy was ready and it was time for us to take some pictures of her, together with her Maid of Honour, Mandy and the Flowergirls, Grace and Florence. They all then came downstairs. Maddy was greeted by Derek, who was going to give her away.

    The Wedding Ceremony

    The Guests were seated in the Pavilion for the Ceremony and once the Registrars had entered the Pavilion, Maddy, Derek and the Bridesmaids made their way down there, waiting to be ushered in, once everyone was settled.

    After the Ceremony, Maddy and Gordon left the Pavilion and walked up to the front of the House. They then went into the Gold Room for a little time on their own. The Guests made their way up to the front of the house and had their reception drinks in the rooms.

    The Rain

    Unfortunately, it was heavy rain outside so we all had to stay inside. Not a problem. Fennes is a wonderful Venue as there are always rooms which are available if the weather is not on our side!

    Wedding Photography at Fennes

    For a few of requested family group pictures we used the steps just outside the door to Fennes. That way everyone kept dry except David!

    The Rain Stopped!

    During a short break in the weather we were able to take an ‘everybody’ picture and we took Maddy and Gordon to the bridge. Being very wet we were restricted a bit on the pictures we could do but we managed.

    There was still time to take a couple of pictures of Maddy and Gordon inside Fennes as well.

    The Confetti

    Confetti pictures in the Gold Room looked good. Maddy and Gordon had a couple of pictures with their Wedding Cake followed the Receiving Line. The Guests then went into the Pavilion for the Wedding Breakfast, followed by Maddy and Gordon. Once Maddy and Gordon were seated that was the end of our coverage of their Fennes Wedding. A lovely Wedding Day!

  • Wedding Photography for Pam & Dan – The Fennes, Bocking

    Pam and Dan chose the lovely Fennes Estate for their Wedding in the Autumn last year.  Both of them were getting ready at Fennes so we were able to capture a range of different pictures before the Civil Ceremony. Following the Ceremony in the Pavilion, Pam and Dan made their way to the front of Fennes for the release of doves.wedding-photographer-essex-fennes With their Guests watching indoors as it was raining and after capturing a few photographs Pam and Dan enjoyed time socialising with their Guests during the Drinks Reception.  A few requested family group pictures were taken in the Gold Room and a short time afterwards, with the rain easing off, we ventured outside with Pam and Dan.  Using the Gazebo as it was dry made for some nice pictures and on our way back to the House, with the weather improved, the Bridal Party joined us for some fun, relaxed pictures outside the House.essex-wedding-photographer-fennes Later the Wedding Breakfast commenced followed by the Speeches.   Pam had proposed to Dan onthe 29th February and hearing the story made for some good pictures in the Speeches.  Whilst their Evening Guests were arriving we took a couple of pictures of the two of them inside Fennes before their First Dance.essex-wedding-photographer-fennes
