    Gosfield Hall Wedding Photography for Emily & Gareth

    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.

Everybody enjoyed the Drinks Reception and during this time we got on with the family group pictures. In between we captured informal and fun pictures  which were going on. We took the ‘everybody’ picture in the courtyard for a change as that was where they all were and it worked well.

The Receiving Line was before the Wedding Breakfast in the Ballroom, with the Speeches following. Reactions during the Speeches made for some great pictures. Once these were finished everybody went into the gardens to enjoy the evening sunshine, participating in the Garden games if they wished. After a little while Emily and Gareth wanted a couple of pictures in the Rococo Suite which were happy to do. Cutting of their Wedding Cake and Emily and Gareth’s First Dance followed shortly after.

    Gill and Chris chose the stunning Gosfield Hall for their Wedding and we were delighted to be asked to photograph their big day. Bridal preparations were taking place upstairs at Gosfield Hall when we arrived. Everything was running smoothly and Gill, her Mother, Val, Father, Cliff, and Sister, Nicola were all very relaxed. Meanwhile Chris was getting ready with this Best Man, Richard, and his Ushers, Steve, Mike and Graham. With  preparations and details completed and ready, Chris then spent a little time greeting some of the Guests in between having some pictures taken.

The Rococco Suite is a lovely room for Bridal portraits etc, and as time was on our side we got on with these taking full advantage of the setting.

Following the Ceremony, Gill, Chris and their Guests went into the Salon for the Drinks Reception.Wedding Photographs Gosfield Hall  It was raining at this time but the forecast was for it was to stop, so Gill and Chris enjoyed some social time with their Guests including being entertained by a Wedding Singer. This gave us ample opportunity for some informal pictures. Starting off inside at Gosfield Hall we got on with the few requested family pictures that Gil and Chris wanted before going off with them for a short while for their pictures.  The rain had stopped earlier so after a few pictures of them inside Gosfield Hall we went outside.

Questions and Answers! It worked well! In between the end of the Wedding Breakfast and the evening celebrations we took a few more pictures of Gill and Chris together with some special requested pictures.  The First Dance followed the cake cutting  and after capturing a flavour of the rest of the evening celebrations it was time for us to leave. Such a relaxed, enjoyable and rewarding day!
