Fennes Wedding Photography – Emma & Will

Wedding Photography Fennes – Emma and Will chose the popular and wonderful Wedding Venue of Fennes for their summer Wedding.

It was a hot day for Emma and Will’s outdoor Wedding. We arrived at the Fennes Estate in plenty of time to capture the preparations for both Emma and Will. Emma was getting ready in the house whilst Will was getting ready in the Cottage. Once Will and his Groomsmen were ready, they had a few pictures taken around the grounds. Will and his Groomsmen then greeted the Guests as they arrived. Upstairs in the House Emma was being helped into her Wedding Dress by her Bridesmaids. When Emma was dressed, she looked stunning, Mum came into the room with Zachary, Emma and Will’s son, some lovely moments. After a few pictures, Emma went down the stairs where her Father was waiting before then going to see the Registrars.

The Guests were taking their seats outside for the Ceremony. The Fennes white umbrellas were being used as sunshades as it was so hot! The Bridesmaids were the first to walk to the Gazebo, followed by Emma holding her Dad’s arm. After the Ceremony we took the ‘everybody’ picture before the Drinks Reception. Emma and Will then had time to mingle with their Guests during the Drinks Reception.

The Picture Session

The family pictures and some fun Bridal Party pictures were taken in our usual relaxed maner. Before the Wedding Breakfast we took Emma and Will’s pictures around Fennes. We finished with a posed cake shot and some confetti shots in the Gold Room.

The Guests were seated in the Pavilion for the Wedding Breakfast Emma and Will made their entrance. We left them all to enjoy the meal and the rest of the their Wedding Day.

A beautiful day of Fennes Wedding Photography!

Fennes Wedding Photography for Debi & Rob

Fennes Wedding Photography for Debi & Rob

Debi and Rob booked us for Fennes Wedding Photography for their early autumn Wedding. After meeting everyone in the Bridal Room, we got on with taking pictures of the details and accessories. In between we made sure we captured the getting ready pictures of both Debi and Rob. David was with the men and once they were dressed they had some pictures taken outside as it was still dry.

A wedding Disaster!

The girls were nearly dressed but unfortunately the zip broke in the one of the Bridesmaids’ dresses! Not to worry, the only way to solve the problem was to sew the zip together! My job today, no problem! It was at this moment David returned! Good timing! David just carried on with the photography! Debi was unaware of what was going on, which was fine by all of us! By the time Debi and the rest of the Bridesmaids were ready, the job was completed! Pictures taken and then it was time for Debi to go downstairs for the Ceremony. The plan was to have an Outdoors Ceremony but the weather put paid to that! The Guests were seated in the Pavilion and Debi came downstairs and went to the Pavilion for the Ceremony.

The Rain Stopped

A break in the rain allowed us all to go outside for the everybody shot before it started again. We got on with taking a few requested pictures using the rooms in the house during the Drinks Reception and we were able to use the steps outside for a few more. The rain did ease and we were able to go outside later on, using the Gazebo and the bridge. During the rest of the afternoon we captured some informal pictures before the Guests threw confetti over Debi and Rob. The rain stopped again during the Wedding Breakfast, so in between courses we stepped outside with Debi and Rob for a few pictures.

A wedding Sunset

After the Wedding Breakfast as there was time for a few more pictures of Debi and Rob around the House and as the the sun was setting, a lovely sky, both in the lane and on the bridge! Not to be missed! Evening Guests were arriving as we returned so the Wedding Cake was cut and Debi and Rob had their First Dance. Later on we said our goodbyes. A great day! Thanks to Sharon of Fennes for helping the day to go like clockwork, despite the zip mishap which held together right through the evening!

Fennes Wedding Photos for Katie & William

Fennes Wedding Photos for Katie & William

It was a delight to be back photographing at The Fennes Estate for the Wedding of Katie and Bill. Arriving at Fennes, it was sunny and preparations for the outdoor Ceremony were in full swing. Bill was with his Groomsmen getting ready in the Lodge whilst Katie was with her Mother and Bridesmaids upstairs in the newly refurbished Bridal Changing Room. After taking a few pictures to capture Bill’s final preparations, the men were ready. Bill and his Groomsmen had time to socialise with the Guests who were arriving after we had finished. The girls’ preparation pictures were taken and they were in the process of getting dressed. Just before we got on with Katie’s pictures, her Father came upstairs to see his daughter all dressed ready for her Wedding. Katie looked wonderful and after this moment we got on with the rest of the pictures. It was soon time for Katie to take her Dad’s arm and make her way outside for the Ceremony in the Gazebo. A lovely setting! Following the Ceremony the Drinks Reception was held in the gardens. Everyone enjoyed mingling, eating and drinking in the afternoon sun. In between times we got on with the requested family group pictures ending up with some fun Bridal Party pictures. The breeze proved a bit of a nuisance during the taking of some of the pictures but we just moved to a different area and carried on. Before the confetti pictures we took Katie and Bill for a short walk around the grounds for their pictures. The Guests took their places for the Wedding Breakfast in the Pavilion. Katie and Bill chose to have their Speeches before the meal. After the Wedding Breakfast we took a few informal evening pictures of Guests and a few more of Katie and Bill in the evening light .Katie and Bill cut their Wedding Cake and went straight into their First Dance. Escaping a while later with Katie and Bill for the Sunset picture was well worth it! As we returned to join everyone the sky all around was looking great. On the Bridge we went for one final picture, making the most of Katie and William’s Wedding Day! Happy with another great set of Fennes Wedding Photos we said our ‘goodbyes”. Thank you Katie and William for a wonderful day, you are a lovely couple!

Wedding Photography Fennes for Amanda & Nick

Wedding Photography Fennes for Amanda & Nick

The wonderful Fennes was the Wedding Venue chosen by Amanda an Nick for their relaxed mid afternoon Wedding. What a good choice it was! It was a nice day for their Wedding and the grounds around Fennes looked superb. Our first port of call when we arrived at Fennes was to go and see Amanda who was getting ready upstairs. Everything was running smoothly, fun and laughter was a-plenty during the preparations. Meanwhile Nick was getting ready in one of the Lodges so after capturing a few of those pictures David took a few pictures of Nick and his Groomsmen outside the House. Leaving Nick to greet the Guests in the sunshine David returned upstairs to where the girls were. By this time the girls were dressed including the Flowergirl, Bethany. Amanda’s Father came into the room to see his daughter and then we got on with taking a few set shots.

The Ceremony took place in the Pavilion with the junior Usher Callum saying a few words. Some nice moments. After the Ceremony everybody went outside to enjoy the Drinks Reception. The children amused themselves playing in the trees in the spring sunshine. A little later we got on with taking some requested family pictures, followed by some more relaxed pictures. During the afternoon we took Amanda and Nick onto the Bridge for a few pictures and a walk through the trees. The blossom was out and this made for some nice images. Amanda and Nick had some time to spend with their Guests before it was time to go through to the Pavilion for the Speeches and meal. The speeches went well, including a Speech from Amanda’s sister, Felicity, and from Amanda as well. Everyone then enjoyed the Hog Roast. Later on there was time for a few evening pictures around Fennes finishing with a sunset and our ‘heart’ picture. Amanda and Nick cut their Wedding Cake when the Evening Guests arrived and then took to the dance floor for their First Dance. After taking some informal pictures during the evening, it was time for us to leave. A lovely Fennes Wedding! Thank you Amanda and Nick for asking us to photograph your Wedding Day, it flowed very nicely, we know you enjoyed it and we did too!
