  • Gosfield Hall Wedding Photography – Brenda & Richard

    Brenda and Richard wanted their Gosfield Hall Wedding to be a relaxing day, which we were more than happy to oblige.

    When we arrived on the morning of the Wedding at Gosfield Hall it was a cool and cloudy day. Upstairs at Gosfield Hall Richard was getting ready in one of the rooms whilst Brenda was getting ready in the Rococo Suite. Richard was with his Best Man, Graham and his wife, chatting away whilst finishing their preparations. Once they were ready a few pictures were taken. Brenda was in the final stages of getting ready, having a lovely time. Harry and Kate joined Brenda when they were ready as they were going to walk her down the aisle. Lovely moments in the Rococo Suite. Absolutely a wonderful colour scheme, well done Brenda and Richard!

    Meanwhile, downstairs, as the Guests were arriving, we managed to capture some nice pictures of them.

    Brenda was soon ready, a few pictures, then as the Guests had taken their seats in the Grand Salon, it was time for Brenda, Harry and Kate to go downstairs for the Ceremony. Emotions were high, many dry eyes at the end of the vows! To end the Ceremony, Brenda and Richard were covered in petals. A lovely spectacle! Some pictures of Brenda and Richard with Gosfield Hall in the background, daffodils and the stag shot afterwards before going back to the inside of Gosfield Hall for the warmth. Everybody had a nice time enjoying the Drinks Reception. Informal pictures of the Guests were great in this setting.

    During the afternoon an everybody picture was taken in the Courtyard with a few family group pictures.

    The Wedding Breakfast was followed by the Speeches. The evening Guests arrived shortly after just before the cutting of the Wedding Cake. Brenda and Richard’s First Dance was brilliant. They took to the dance floor, a slow dance for under a minute, then a change of rhythm! A brilliant choreographed dance took place to much cheering and clapping! Outstanding! Well done! The Guests then joined them for dancing. Afterwards, the Bride and Groom surprised their Guests again with Sparklers! What a nice way to end our coverage of Brenda and Richard’s wonderful Winter Wedding at Gosfield. Thank you for asking us to be your Wedding Photographers, it was a pleasure.

    It was a lovely day for Emily and Gareth’s Wedding at this stunning Wedding Venue. On arrival at Gosfield Hall we met up with Emily, her Bridesmaids and Mother. Everybody was relaxed,enjoying Champagne whilst carrying out their preparations. Emily’s Wedding Dress and Accessories were in the Rococo Suite, so I split my time between taking pictures of these and capturing some getting ready pictures. Emily and Gareth’s colour scheme for the day was beautiful, with the flowers being provided by www.vikkibrowne.com. Meanwhile David went off to find Gareth who was in the bar greeting the arrival of the Wedding Guests. Leaving the Guests to look after themselves for a few minutes, Gareth with his Best Man and Ushers had a few pictures taken outside Gosfield Hall as well as inside. When David returned upstairs, the girls were in the wonderful Rococco Suite, getting dressed. Timings were spot on so we had time when everybody was dressed to take some pictures without hurrying. With all the Guests seated in the Queen’s Gallery, Emily escorted by her Father and with the Bridesmaids leading the way made their way to the Ceremony.

    We are still a few weeks behind with our blog at present, so it was very timely that just after publishing Rebecca and Michael’s blog about their at Gosfield Hall winter wedding,  we were delighted to receive this lovely Review from the happy Bride:-

    We love love love our album! David & Sandra captured every emotion during our wedding day. The photos are moving and tell a beautiful story. We really enjoyed having them as our photographers as they were warm & personable without being intrusive. Definitely recommend having the engagement shoot as it helps build rapport and relaxes the poses before the big day.

    We met Rebecca and Michael one Sunday morning at their home in the Autumn last year.  Deciding to take a walk along Surrey Docks on the bank of the Thames and then on to a local park for their pre-wedding pictures. It turned out to be a  lovely morning and the walk was a good idea. The autumn leaves were just starting to colour adding another dimension to the pictures. After taking some pictures we stopped off for a coffee and a chat about their Wedding at Gosfield Hall.
